The only peopel he's never fooled are the British public who have largely seen through his fabricated charade from the beginning.
He lacks the stomach for the contest, always has and whilst he can look fleetingly majestic his victory over an unprepared, and potentially shot, Williams flattered to deceive.
Harrison lacked authority in his jab, self-belief when the bombs were flying and fought at to pedestrian a pace throughout his early career to build up any intensity or ability to win exchanges or develop round winning fitness.
Brilliant for Sprotty though. A very good fighter who never quite had the backing or luck of contemporaries like Williams and Skelton.

Having watched him in the Olympics, I dont care what anyone said. I could tell he was not nor would ever develop into a world class boxer.
Pity the BBC wasted so much license payers money bankrolling his career in fooling the British public.
Audley Harrison just needs to shut up and go away. I was so cheering for Sprott purely cause I hate Harrison so much.

Lol, judging by that performance I think he's had it...
Particularly as already no-one seems to want to fight him now... (Skeltons little speech!)
Let's see how Amir Khan gets on now!
Edit: 2 seconds later! Ok, guessing Khan wins that one then! Smashing :D 55 seconds in, nice...
ps, I agree with ben c, less time with no hopers and more time in real fights might have been more beneficial to his career!

I couldn't believe how lazy he was again, after the first, he just ambled about. Its his arrogance that has wasted his career, i dont think he'll be attracting many more offers, he cant be seen as a potential champion to many now surely. Shame really, he had the strength and physique, not the heart.

Hopefully it's the end the bloke is a joke
Matt Skelton has refused to go in the ring with hm - pity he might have caused him some damage!

He's definitely on the way out. I never really thought he was world class, anyway.
