Audley Harrison, the British 2000 Olympic Super Heavyweight Gold medallist, former WBF Heavyweight champion and currently on a comeback trail starting, stated that he was told in no uncertain terms that he had to look good on the Joe Calzaghe undercard. He may have said something along the lines of, “I was told I had to look good, so I went out, had a manicure. Ate some lobster. Had a massage, relaxed, bought myself some new threads, clean socks. Then I had my hair done, brushed my teeth, covered myself in oil and I went into the ring against a tough opponent.†Unfortunately nobody told Audley that he was meant to look good in the ring, by boxing. Boxing is a sport where the winner is decided by who has landed the best shots, who worked the hardest or who made the least racial slurs in the build up to the fight. Audley stated on his performance “You didn’t see all the good tonight. As you can tell, when I went down and had myself I feel the guy didn’t want to know, he just crumbled. When I work the body, gosh, it’s summmmmit else.†Audley won his fight in the fifth round when he went for a nipple twist but mistimed it and ended up battering his opponents ribcage. Questions were asked about Audley possibly fighting David Haye, the undisputed Cruiserweight Champion. Audley said something like, “It would be a sexy fight. We both have buff bodies, nice abs, and Haye used to do modelling which I could have done if I wasn’t so set on boxing, you know? Definitely a sexy fight, we would fill Wembley stadium. It would be intense, sexy, very sexy, boxing isn’t normally sexy. I make it sexy. It would be entertaining, and have this intense sexual atmosphere. We both have slightly overshot jaws and this is why were chinny, no pun intended, and this would make for a sexual fight. Mmmmm, mmmm, .†I got this off of another boxing site. It brought a smile to my face.
The British doubters were right about Oddly from the beginning. A major disappointment as a professional. At worst, he should've been as good as someone like Tony Thompson.
I'm right about most Brits. Before Audley even turned pro I knew he would never be a world champ. I'll say the same thing about Khan too. He'll get to European level/fringe world class, but he'll never be a legitimate world champ.
Its a heart thing. The damn bastard has plenty of technical skills, otherwise he wouldn't have been so successful as an ammy. He just will not put himself in harm's way unless he absolutely has to, which means he either beats the crap out of bums, stinks his way to victories against C-Level fighters or he gets stopped by mediocrity like Michael Sprott. He has been a major disappointment, to say the least, and he should just disappear to count the cash he managed to make despite his failure to make any inroads into the worst collection of HW's in boxing history.
That's harsh and perhaps a little premature. Khan has a few glaring flaws to be sure, but at least he has a little heart in him. As much as I laughed my bollocks off when Willie Limond put him on his ass, you have to give Khan credit for getting up and breaking Limond's jaw within the next three minutes. If he ever learns to keep his left hand up, then he might be able to compete at an elite level some time in the future. He's only 20 years old (Fraudley was about 95 when he won in 2000), so there is still plenty of time. Plus, that bastard Werren is the best promoter in the world at protecting and managing careers. He'll find a way to make Khan a champ somehow, probably by having him fight bums until Campbell and Casa are to old and shot to beat Amir. Whether or not that would make him a 'legitimate champ' is another matter entirely... ::
Which is odd, because the best way to stay out of harm's way would be to use his jab, and he's just unwilling to do with it what he should. He seems to have a bit of the same lethargic in-ring temperament that plagued Dominick Guinn.
yep. most hyped bum in the world. worst thing is he is clearly thick as fuck. he's the type of prick if i saw in the street i would like to hit him in the teeth with a bat.
Little Britain - most overrated British comedy ever. Silly costumes and silly voices = cheap and passé Which is a shame, because I am fond of both Walliams and Lucas. Both very funny, but Little Britain is shit. As is Catherine Tate.
