New Heavyweight Champion

[jamiebhoy]

Well looks like he came through , Haye is the new champ, not the greatest fight by any stretch but a wins a win.

[SalTheButcher]

wasnt hayes entire argument against the klitschkos that they dont try to finish fights?



and then he legitimately tries to go out and win a fight by landing 6-9 punches a rd?

[El Kabong]

Well, well, well.....not exactly the exciting, thrilling, KO he planned on was it? Well many congrats David Haye....prepare for your mandatory John Ruiz and hope that you can handle it

[Gandalf]

Pretty awful fight. It should have been a NC, due to the shocking lack in activity levels!

Fair play to Haye on getting the nod, but Valuev was not really beaten out there by any stretch of the imagination. He deserves a rematch, not that I will sit through it.

[jamiebhoy]

Yeah not quite what he promised and noto have hurt his right in round three. Still those words "and the new....." must feel pretty good to him.

Crap fight but the records will show he was a HW champion.Now lets see what he can come with next or will he be stripped for not being active enough.

Here's one for Lefty, who stuck by his man like Tammy Wynette

[HattonTheHammer]

hand on heart thought it should of been scored for valuev EASILY

hayes a fraud

[TheDemolitionDan]

I had Haye winning 115-113. Either way close fight, no robbery.

[Cressa121]

Its brilliant to have a British Heavyweight champion again! I was quite surprised to see Valuev wobbled in the last round, but i wasn't overly confident Haye would get the decision, i didn't think he was working enough. Still, his tactics worked, and he showed he has the stamina to go the distance

[mattboxingfan]

Funk off! Haye isnt a fraud! Comon England, Haye!!!!!!!!

Who cares if Valuev threw more? The last I checked he was trying to defeat david haye and not the thin air he was hitting.

Haye landed more and better punches and that's that.

No it's true if you just run around the ring and windmill your arms you automatically win, i think it's written in the Queensbury rules specifically.

I think Hay'es sh1te too, but you cannot win a fight just by stumbling forward a hitting thin air which is all the lump did all night

[AdamGB]

I understand that you don't like his inactivity/attempts at trash talking etc... but to say that valuev won easily stinks of hating tbh.

valuev had moments where he controled the ring, not because of effective punching, but because of his sheer size and haye's reluctance to get clipped on the chin by 23 stone... but that's IT.

haye may have done next to nothing but valuev actually did nothing.

[Fatsandman]

For a British fighter to win in Germany on points by running away you've got to check out the power behind that fight. I think there are promoters behind that fight that saw that the money to be made for themselves on future matches against smaller fighters (John Ruiz, Don?) would be much greater if David got the nod!

Clear your diaries because Haye will fight the Klitschko's in 2013, after he's taken care of the real cream of the heavyweight crop like Ruiz, Rahman, Botha, Oquendo, etc....

[Fatsandman]

...Look for the new promotion team 'KingHayemaker'...
