Annoying Sportsman #3 - Audley Harrison

Harrison downed against Michael Sprott
(www.boxingfancast.com)
I could probably leave it here with just the title and picture, but after Saturday's embarrassment of a Heavyweight Title bout, I was so annoyed by the whole thing that I just had to discuss it.

Firstly for those lucky enough not to see it, the fight ended in three rounds, with neither fighter landing a punch in the first round and Harrison landing only one in the entire fight.

Hopefully now all the false confidence and 'YES I CAN' t-shirts (Harrison's slogan) have long since disappeared , the Heavyweight division can move on and not be dragged through the mud by the likes of Harrison.

That is the main reason he annoys me but also because he got an opportunity that not only he didn't deserve but other boxers would give their right arm for - and he landed ONE PUNCH!

Add to this the fact boxing fans the world over had to pay £15 for the pleasure thanks to Sky Box Office, and you have a lot of upset boxing fans.

Well at least it was better value than Amir Khan's first box office showing...LOL

    Enjoyed the post, the fight was a joke, of course people would give their right arm to be there, Harrison was reported to get 1.1mil for the fight. I can honestly say, I would stand there and get a beating off Haye for a couple mins for that money!

    "Firstly for those luckily enough" Should that not read 'lucky enough'? :)
