I'm a bit shocked as to how popular Haye's win actually is. I mean I've been in Asda and he's on the front page of newspapers 2 days after the fight, he has just been on Radio 1's newsbeat, He has been on the television landing back at Stansted airport, both football matches on Sky yetserday mentioned his win constantly.

This all from a guy who 12 months ago your average guy on the street probably wouldn't have even known. I am really happy for both Haye and the sport of Boxing, it is by far the greatest sport on earth but with little interest in the Heavyweights recently it has lost a lot of appeal for the casual fan. Love him or hate him, if your a boxing fan he has certainly put boxing back on the map.

Ricky Hatton was very popular here yes, but not even he had this kind of coverage after the Tszyu fight, this is like when Lennox beat Holyfield to become undisputed champ. Just make's me wonder what it will be like when he KO's Wlad??
