AUDLEY HARRISON Boxer

One of the most highly publicised British Boxers on the World Scene at the moment. Audley is destined to become a future world Champion.

Born in London, 26th October 1971, Audley had an impressive amateur record of 46 wins, and only eight defeats. His best moment was winning the Olympic Super Heavyweight gold medal at Sydney 2000.

His success since winning his Olympic gold medal has been blighted in the press due to an array of lackluster opponents. However Audley has an excellent record of 17 wins, 0 defeats and 1l of those wins by stoppages.

His best achievements so far since turning professional was winning the WBF title, a little known federation body, by stopping Rachel Hersisa inside four rounds.
Audley’s much anticipated fight with Matt Skelton is also off the agenda due to a contract dispute. However in a wide-open division Audley could well be challenging for a respected version, (WBA, IBF, WBC, WBO) of the world title very soon. Audley’s southpaw stance, huge frame and awkwardness would give the current crop of heavyweight prospects a lot of problems.

Audley is a very well educated boxer who runs his own promotion company A-Force. Audley also donates generously to charities.
His sacrifices to become Olympic Champion and his positive out look on life have made him a positive role model in the black Community.
