Haye v Harrison

[kinboshi]

Never in the field of human conflict was so little expected from someone who has so much and owes a good performance to many, but up to now has delivered so few.

[Hairydude]

Im actually going to the fight, only cos my mates are going for a bit of a knees up. I also have a bet on Harrison (part of an accumulator that will come in if Audley wins).

I think, most likely, it will be a dogshit one sided annihilation of Harrison, but I had to bet because the 6-1 I got was too good, there are hardly any boxing matches where someone is a 6-1 dog even when severely mismatched. Add to that what Kin said about him having the ammo, Haye taking it lightly and having a suspect jaw plus the off chance of a bad judges decision, and I think it was a good bet at 6-1.

That said, always wanted to boo audley in person so cant wait for that

Why didnt you do it when you interviewed him you big scaredy cat!!! Now you'll go do it hidden amongst thousands of fans- poor show!

[Hairydude]

Anyone know where I can catch the Pacman fight online? Much rather watch that than pay to watch this awful "fight"

I think its on normal skysports

Sunday 2am SS1/SSHD1 and repeated at 11am SS2/SSHD2

Cool, haven't seen any commercials for that one. Sky+ and watch it in the morning it is then

I know I had to go digging to find that one out; think Sky are probably keeping it on the lowdown in case it affects PPV figures.

Quite glad theyre both on the same night; having a lads night for it- Ice in bath for the beer, some munchies, bit of gambling and a shitload of booze- between fights theres about a 5 hour window- could be messy!

What odds are you giving that half of you are unconscious when Pacquiao steps into the ring to fight?

haha; there are usually a few casualties but should be alright- at 27-30 you would think we should have probably grown out of our pranks but basically everyone is too sh!t scared to sleep never mind the boxing. Going home>>>>>> falling asleep in a flat full of immature lads

Especially coz all the GF's are banned so they're not there to control

[The Baron]

I know boxing is run by a bunch of bullshitters, but the hype they have created about this fight is ridic.

It's a mismatch. Haye is going to marmalise Harrison.

This - I cant fathom some of the people speaking up for Harrison. Haye in 2-3 rounds.

This needs more love although would have been doubly impressive if you had posted it at 11.11am.

Ty for quoting it, otherwise I would have prob missed it.

some dodgy internet link will do the trick, not paying 15 quid

Harrison has got some impressive attributes and he beats Haye in every area of physicality. He's taller, heavier, longer reach, and he can bang just as hard. Also Harrison is an experienced boxer now so that 6/1 or whatever looks like great value. However, there is a problem. Harrison is a coward, a big comedy coward who could readily star in an episode of Scooby Doo as a replacement for Shaggy. The guy doesn't like hitting people and likes getting hit himself even less, and that's rather problematic if you're hoping to win a fight. This fight has been manufactured purely for money and anybody who pays PPV to watch it has been conned. Admittedly I've paid for it so have been conned myself, drat, but then again I'm paying purely to watch A-Force get sparked and I hope whatever pride he's got keeps him on his feet long enough to get properly mashed up. I read Harrison in the paper yesterday and the guy's still chatting on about his gold medal. lolz.

i'm certainly not speaking up for harrison, but 7/1 for the ko has got to be decent value, we all know haye is by far the superior fighter, but he does have a suspect chin and audley can punch......so there is always that "boxers chance" and 7/1 seems worth a small punt

Anyone know the expected ring entrance time?  I'm out and wont be back til 11ish

9.45pm

Commentary doesn't start til 10, so perhaps nearer 11 after all?

Not seen a big fight (yeah, I know this isn't really a big fight) on Sky that's being fought in this country start before 10:30.  Not that I can remember anyway.

[Josedinho]

They have been saying on Sky all week 9.45 is the EARLIEST. So if all the undercard are 1 rounders then it might happen but half 10 sounds about right.
