Obviously Harrison is in in for the pay packet but he stands absolutely no chance of winning this.

Pity the Klitschko brothers don't seem to be up for it as Haye needs to defend his title against someone a bit better than Harrison.

This will be a walk in the park.
 
stupid fight for Haye - nothing to gain bar bragging rights and all to lose if "Fraudley" wins with a "one in a million punch"
 
Cant stand Haye the *******
dont care about either fighter but i hope Harrison wins....
 
Would actually like to see Haye fight someone decent to see if he's any good, always feels a bit like Ricky Hatton every time i saw him fight a really big name he seemed to lose, but all the lower fighters he destroyed.

By that you mean "Undefeated apart from losing to arguably the two greatest boxers that ever lived". You're right, Hatton was no good...
Haye has a long way to go to be regarded as good as Hatton in his prime.

Originally it was like this but the roles reversed a while back.

First Haye pulled out using a phantom back injury as an excuse (fact was it was just because setanta collapsed). Then pulled out of contract negotiations after that after stating they wanted too much money.
Then the Klitschkos offered a 50/50 split on everything and Haye refused because he wanted the fight to be on a different German TV network or something stupid like that when the Klitschkos already have a contract with RTL which they cannot get out of and why should they when they pull in far more viewers than Haye does.

I have no interest in this fight but I hope Harrison knocks him clean out since at least he will give it a go and actually fight someone I think since his time is running out and I think he genuinely believes he is world class.

Haye has been going on about 'fighting' a Klitschko since 2008, infact he even backed out of a signed and sealed fight just 2 weeks before the date last year. In 2008 he was even publically saying how the Klitschkos wanted to fight in london.

Haye had no intention of ever fighting Klitschko and used their name for his own promotional purposes
 
Shows how much of a girl Haye is. Audrey Harrison is not even top 10 in England, let alone world. Pathetic fight. The heavyweight division is officially the worst.
 
I hope there's an instantaneous double KO and they both get hurt :D

Seriously Haye is ****ing pathetic for not fighting a Klitschko, if he wanted the fight to happen it he could have found a way to get the negotiations done, but he's bottled it for one reason or another. Haye shouldn't have gripes because of the TV deal or the split of the money... If he wants to get taken seriously by boxing fans on the world stage he has to try and get those belts off the Klitschkos, and if he has to do that by fighting in Germany on 40/60 then so be it. Beating up Fraudley isn't going to raise his stock any is it?!

And Fraudley is just a joke, how he is still here and fighting for a World Title is mystifying.
This fight is lose lose for English boxing; if he batters Harrison it proves Haye's a timewasting poseur who hasn't got the balls to go out of his comfort zone and put his money where his stupid mouth is. Or it'll show that Haye, the best heavyweight prospect we had in years isn't any better than an aging moron who never had the stones to take the big fights either. Depressing :(
 
I hate Haye and it'd be a great laugh to see someone as useless as Harrison beat him so I'm hoping against all common sense and logic that it happens.
 
Heh just saw this quote of Haye's on the BBC website and it genuinely made me lol, so I thought I'd share:
"I'm the most devastating fighter on the planet."

priceless. How he can even begin to think that without having fought a Klitschko, I will never know. ******.
 
Dont forget that Awful won a gold medal in the 1892 Olympics though........ or so he keeps telling everyone!
