It would now appear certain that the anticipated fight between World Heavyweight Champion, David Haye will go ahead against former Olympic Super Heavyweight Champion, Audley Harrison at the MEN Arena in Manchester on 13th November. The bookmakers have been very quick to draw up the betting markets as they anticipate huge betting interest and possibly record takings. Haye has been made a massive 1/7 odds on favourite by Bet365 to win the fight, however as usual the odds offer punters no value whatsoever, unless bets are made on the fight outcomes markets. Harrison has been made a 4/1 chance to win the title, something which he has threatened to do ever since winning the Olympic title in 2000.
In fairness to Haye he has only just moved up to the heavyweight division after winning the Cruiserweight title by destroying Enzo Maccarinelli of Wales in two rounds in 2008. Since then he has three fights at heavyweight level, including victory over Nikolai Valuev the giant Russian, for the WBA version of the heavyweight title, which he will defend against Harrison.
David Haye v Audley Harrison WBA Heavyweight Title Odds Comparison
it would seem that the two men have no real regard for each other and both have started the baiting game which of course is the usual tried and tested method of promoting the fight. Nonetheless , Haye comes into the fight with huge advantages of speed, superior fitness, probably a bigger punch and much better technique than Harrison who at his best looks solid but more often than not he looks shabby, slow and cumbersome. It is probably why the Bookmakers believe that Haye will stop Harrison before the end of the scheduled 12 rounds. Indeed Bet365.com have him at 4/9 to win inside the distance and 4/1 to win by decision. Whereas Harrison is a 5/1 shot to win inside the distance and 12/1 to win on points.

Haye’s record makes for excellent reading, he has won 24 from 25 fights including 20 by stoppage, which adequately demonstrates that he can bang with the best of them. His only defeat came at the hands of former WBO Cruiserweight champion, Carl Thompson who stopped Haye in five rounds in 2005. It was Thompson’s last fight before retiring and he was 41 years old at the time.
Harrison meanwhile has 27 wins from 31 contests with 20 knock outs and 4 defeats, all against fairly low level opponents. Like Haye he has only ever been stopped once and that came against Michael Sprott who stopped him in 2007. Harrison has since avenged that defeat but needed to knock Sprott out in the final round to do so as he was a mile behind on points.
