The Fans Have Voted: Audley Vs Wilder

61% PICKING WILDER TO BEAT AUDLEY, 100% BY KO!

There is a very big weekend of boxing coming up, and possibly the most intriguing match-up on Saturday night is Deontay 'Bronze Bomber' Wilder Vs Audley 'A-Force' Harrison. The fight takes place on the undercard of Khan Vs Diaz at the Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield and will be televised live on BoxNation (Sky 437, Virgin 546).

Like I said, this really is an intriguing match-up. Audley Harrison is coming off of three impressive victories in the Heavyweight prizefighter back in February, also becoming the first ever man to win two Prizefighter titles. But despite being in the best shape of his career and having huge momentum, Audley will enter this fight as a huge underdog because he takes on a man who is considered to be "the most devastating puncher in the world today"; Deontay Wilder. The American has a perfect record of 27-0, with 27 KO's, knocking out every single one of his opponents in four rounds or less. 

So obviously, as the stats shows, the majority of fight fans are picking Wilder to get the win, but the fact that he is still largely untested has given A-Force fans a little confidence. Here are the results:

Audley Harrison - Inspirational or delusional?

Harrison is the fighter who never seems to know when to give up. After his defeat to David Price 99% of people said he should retire. The only person who said no was Audley himself. He believes in himself and in his ability, he believes it is his destiny to be world champion.

He saw the latest heavyweight prizefighter show as a stepping stone back onto the road he has tried to follow many times before. Whilst others laughed, sighed and pointed at him his single minded determination resulted in him actually winning the event for the second time. 

He is now lined up to fight Deontay Wilder on Amir Khan’s undercard on 20^thApril in Sheffield. Wilder is the great hope from the USA with a record of 27 fight, 27 wins, 27 KOs!!

"A-FORCE" SETS THE RECORD STRAIGHT!  

On the night of February 23, at York Hall in Bethnal Green, the 29th edition of prizefighter served up a treat, with Audley Harrison topping the night off by creating prizefighter history! 

In the lead up to the International Heavyweights III prizefighter tournament, Harrison was in an extremely confident and positive frame of mind. The 41-year-old has the gift of the gab of course, and, as always, was in full flow! He had every right to be confident of his chances to win the trophy though, because he won prizefighter back in 2009 and he looked in fantastic shape as he weighed in at under 17 stones. But, coming in to the tournament, Harrison had been on the receiving end of a vicious knockout to David Price. which ended in just 1 round only 4 months earlier. Many interpreted Harrison's confidence as fear, but many interpreted it as assurance, that he would put the defeat to Price to the back of his mind and would win the trophy for a second time. Of course, there was only one way to find out, and that was to see Harrison back in the ring backing his words up!  

Heavyweight Prizefighter Report - Audley Is Back Again!

A big, big night for British heavyweight boxing! One of our brightest prospects David Price is KO'd in the second round by the "massive underdog" Tony Thompson, and the assumably "washed-up" Audley Harrison dominates and wins the International Heavyweight Prizefighter tournament. Check out my reaction in the video above. 

Audley Harrison talks sparring with Wilder, Hanks & Scott... Believes he can walk through Price!

David Price (left) & Audley Harrison (right).

British heavyweight Audley Harrison claims he has cut no corners in his training camp for his career-determining fight on October 13th against Britain's most dangerous prospect David Price. A-Force claims he has had the best sparring possible and believes he can just "walk through Price."

"I've been real competitive in this camp and I found people who I believe can match David Price, can potentially beat David Price. Deontay Wilder, he's 26-0 with 26 knockouts and he won a bronze medal at heavyweight in Beijing, same as David. There is Joe Hanks who is 26-0 with 19 knockouts, he's explosive and he's fast like Shannon Briggs... Malik Scott, another guy who is 33-0," said Audley.

"That's the best sparring I can get for someone like David Price. They are all the same height as him... 6"7, 6"8. Deontay Wilder punches like a mule and he's fast. And I had four weeks of him. And some days he was catching me with clean shots. Some people think that when David catches me with a right hand it will be over, but that certainly won't be the case. Even against David Haye, when I was at my worst, David hit me without about 20 punches before I went down and I still got up."

Audley Harrison could be next for Price...

British heavyweight contender Audley Harrison.

Former heavyweight world title challenger Audley Harrison returned to the ring and re-boosted his career on Saturday (May 26th) by knocking out domestic rival Ali Adams in just four rounds at the Brentwood Centre in Essex. It wasn't the best performance from Audley but it showed us that he is serious about giving it one more shot.

He is now looking to step up his level of opponents and he has requested a fight with British heavyweight champion David Price. This would be a good fight for everyone involved. It would make a lot of money and it would be the step up in class that both fighters desperately want. 

British champ David Price.

At first it just looked as if it was just a call-out from Audley in search for a big pay-day but Price's promoter Frank Maloney revealed that this is a fight that could happen in the near future.

"It's a fight we're interested in," said Maloney. "We're looking to get in contact with him... There are a lot of option that we are looking at and Audley Harrison is one of them."

Harrison has been pestering BBBofC officials to make him the mandatory challenger for Price's title. He won the International Masters title against Ali Adams on Saturday but he wants a title that is a lot more important. Price is set to defend the British title in September. The main two opponents that are being talked about right now, are Harrison himself and former British champion Matt Skelton.

Audley is not the ideal opponent that the fans want to see David Price face but is a definite step up in class from the recent fighters that 'Pricey' has beaten with ease e.g. Sam Sexton and John McDermott. As long as Audley puts up a better performance than he did against David Haye it could be a relatively good fight.

Harrison celebrates after stoppage victory.

Controversial British heavyweight Audley Harrison made his return to the ring on Saturday night, in his first fight since his poor performance against David Haye back in 2010. He returned in style and knocked out Ali Adams in the 4th round at the Brentwood Centre in Essex.

The 40-year old started slow and it looked as though he was going to be the usual Audley Harrison and lose to a boxer that is not even in the 'A class' of domestic fighters. But then in the 3rd round Harrison stepped up his work and started to hurt his opponent and then in the 4th he knocked down Adams with a right hand. Adams managed to rise to his feet but the referee stopped the fight after a flurry of punches from 'A-Force'.

The fourth round stoppage was a bit ironic and a bit embarrassing for Adams as during the build-up to the fight he repeatedly boasted that Audley would be "on the floor in round 4." Harrison picked up on this and tweeted saying: "Im back... Poetic justice to end it in four after he said I would be on the floor. No hard feelings though and I wish him all the best."

It is not entirely clear what is next for Audley. He is definitely not at world level but I think he could be a top contender at domestic and maybe European level. There have already been rumours with a fight with top prospect and British heavyweight champion David Price or ring veteran Matt Skelton.
