	The heavyweight division - can Audley Harrison be 'A Force'?
		Audley is currently undefeated, (19-0 14kos) weighs in around 18 stones, stands at 6' 5'', is a former Olympic gold medallist and has just had his most significant win as a pro versus Robert Wiggins stopping him in four rounds.
		Harrison has good movement for such a big man, he displays good handspeed and punches well in combination from the southpaw stance and has a spiteful left cross and uppercut.
		Within the next twelve months Harrison should, and the key word is should, be in a position to be fighting for a title or at least in an eliminator against another highly ranked contender.

	Richard III - Blore Heath
		Audley took up a position just west of a little stream that crossed the Market Drayton-Newcastle-under-Lyme road, and Salisbury’s men were drawn up about 150 yards east of the present Audley Cross, which marks the spot where Lord Audley fell.
		Lord Audley had recently raised a Lancastrian army centered round Market Drayton, and the Queen -through whom the King ruled- sent him orders to intercept Lord Salisbury, who was marching from Yorkshire to join the Duke of York at Ludlow.
		But this too failed; there was no support from the cavalry, Lord Audley had already fallen and 500 Lancastrians chose this moment to desert to the enemy.

		I don't think though Harrison has anything to fear from Williams' power I actually think that Harrison is the bigger hitter of the two, Audleys left cross certainly more powerful than anything Williams will ever throw.
		Audley, for his part, is a pretty consistent boxer in terms of form and performance; and it's his opponents that tend to shape the fight.
		Audley, though, has said it himself - this will test exactly where he is. He needs to get in the ring and be able to put on a performance that rivals that of Vitali, or he'll look weak in comparison to the current champion.
