David Haye 24–1 (22 KO) vs. Audley Harrison 27–4 (20 KO), billed as Best of Enemies, was a professional boxing match contested on 13 November 2010 for the WBA Heavyweight championship.

After his stoppage win over former champion John Ruiz in his first defence, WBA champion David Haye entered into negotiations with the Klitschko brothers, with Wembley Stadium and Stamford Bridge being mentioned possible venues] These talks however were unsuccessful as the brothers agreed to face former champions Shannon Briggs and Samuel Peter instead. This left two main options for Haye: European champion (and former amateur teammate) Audley Harrison and former two-division champion Tomasz Adamek. Ultimately, Haye came to an agreement with Harrison to meet in November.

The build up to bout was marked by a great amount of trashtalk from both fighters, including Haye saying ‘Fortunately, there are enough people in Britain who want to see him get destroyed, completely annihilated. That’s why this fight is happening. They want me to close the curtain on the joke that is the Audley Harrison show’. Harrison said ‘When I came out of the Olympics, they called me Muhammad Ali, then four years later I’m “Fraudley”. But after this fight I’ll be extraordinary’.

It was expected that Haye’s superior speed, coupled with his uppercut, would give him the edge over the slower and innately more cautious Harrison.

This was only the third time in history that two Brits had faced each other for the heavyweight title, and the first on UK soil since Lennox Lewis vs. Frank Bruno in 1993.

Lennox Lewis 23–0 (19 KO) vs. Frank Bruno 36–3 (35 KO), billed as The Battle of Britain, was a professional boxing match contested on 1 October 1993 at National Stadium, Cardiff in Wales. It was between WBC heavyweight champion Lennox Lewis, who was making the second defence of his title and Frank Bruno, who was fighting in his third world title bout, his two previous title fights having been unsuccessful.

Lennox Lewis had won the WBC heavyweight title when Riddick Bowe refused to fight him, so the WBC gave Lewis the title on 14 January 1993. Lewis had previously been the WBC’s number one contender by defeating Razor Ruddock. Lewis then became the first British world heavyweight champion since Bob Fitzsimmons lost the title on 9 June 1899. Lewis went on to defend his title by defeating Tony Tucker.

Frank Bruno had previously lost to Tim Witherspoon on 19 July 1986 for the WBA heavyweight title at Wembley Stadium and to Mike Tyson on 25 February 1989 for the WBA, WBC, and IBF titles at the Las Vegas Hilton.

The fight was the first time that two British-born boxers had fought for the world heavyweight title, although Bruno had questioned how British Lewis really was, as he had won a gold medal for Canada at the 1988 Olympic Games as an amateur. Bruno described Lewis as “…not British”, but said “It’s about boxing. I’m sick and tired of his pretences. He calls himself champion. He acts like he’s a Sugar Ray Leonard or a Willie Pep or a Joe Louis”,[5] and that “Nobody cares about Lennox Lewis in Britain.”

To counter the Bruno claim that he was “not British”, Lewis said, “What was I supposed to do? Not follow my mother to Canada?”, “Look, I’ve fought more British fighters than that guy has. He makes a fool of himself, dressing up in girls’ clothing on television”. Lewis called Bruno an “Uncle Tom”.

Bruno weighed in at 238 pounds (108 kg), and Lewis at 229 pounds (104 kg)

The fight was promoted by Frank Maloney Panix Promotions and by Main Events. It was a pay-per-view event with HBO in the United States and on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom.
