Doh...after eventing aside, Audley did seem to be getting back to his complacent ways after the Williams fight. Strutting about like he was a world title contender just because he beat a pretty old and poorly conditioned fighter at the 2nd attempt.
His attitude was poor in defeat and in victory...all just empty words and never any apparent desire to really knuckle down and take advantage over the ability he did have.
The problem he has now is that after he lost to Williams and Guinn he could come out and say how he was going to change his attitude and get himself together, and that claim gained a little credibility when he beat Williams. Now its been exposed again and if he comes out and says it again no one will believe him, the papers won't give him too many column inches, and fans wont turn out to watch his next fight, no matter how much he claims he is now the real deal.

Same here. I logged on to
Betfair with about 5 minutes to go and was so close to sticking £50 on Sprott on the basis that Harrison has always had the ability but has never shown the heart. I knew Sprott would make him work for it like Williams did in their first fight and felt the value was good. I'm pissed off on principle that I talked myself out of it. Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
I even came on here before the fight to see if Tom, Dave or Burt had posted anything on it. I even visited 'elsewhere' but there were no threads on the bloody fight so I opted out.
The thing is that the heavyweight division is so poor at the moment that even Harrison could still get a few more pay days. Sad but true.
