McGuigan - Audley could beat Haye

Boxing legend Barry McGuigan believes 2000 Olympic gold medallistAudley Harrison has a chance to beat David Haye if the pair meet later this year (check out the latest boxing markets on stanjames.com).

Haye's manager, Adam Booth, has already admitted a fight between the two British heavyweights could happen.

WBA heavyweight champion of the world Haye is desperate for a shot at either of the Klitschko brothers but so far the two camps have been unable to agree a deal over a potential bout.

Wladamir Klitschko has recently claimed he would turn Haye's face into a "pizza" but as yet the fight still has not been arranged, which could pave the way for the 'A-Force' to take his shot at the Hayemaker.

McGuigan is a shrewd pundit and he feels Harrison has a chance to beat Haye by way of knockout after his last-gasp victory over Michael Sprott.

Sprott had been way ahead on points, yet Harrison landed a sweet punch in the 12th round of the fight to knock his opponent out.

"You can't say he (Harrison) hasn't got a chance," explained McGuigan. "On the strength of the punch that knocked out Sprott, he has a chance against anyone."
