Haye v Harrison bout in Sky 3D
October 20, 2010 · 0 Comments
Sky Sports have confirmed that the WBA world heavyweight title showdown between David Haye and Audley Harrison on Saturday, November 13, will be the world’s first ever boxing match televised live in 3D.
The fight will be screened on Sky Box Office, with Haye lauding the prospect of the fight in 3D, claiming fans will witness a ‘three-dimensional beating’.
Haye said : “This fight is going to be a three-dimensional beating of a one-dimensional challenger,” warned Haye. “In addition to the 3D glasses, fight fans ordering this bout should be given a sick bag and an inhaler. They won’t just be watching a beat-down on screen, they’ll now be able to feel every punch, thanks to the beauty of 3D.”
He added : “I can assure everybody that watches the fight in 3D that, at some point during the fight, Audley Harrison will land on your lap in a crumpled heap. I have no doubt Audley will be seeing three of me once I land my right hand on his jaw – and that’s got nothing to do with the glasses.”
David Haye defends his WBA World Heavyweight title on Saturday, November 13 against British rival Audley Harrison at Manchesters MEN Arena, live on Sky Box Office HD and in 3D. For tickets call 0844847 8000 or visit www.men-arena.com.
