David Haye and Hayemaker Boxing will arrive in Liverpool on Monday, December 15 for a press conference to announce details of the blockbuster “Hayemaker 6” show to be held on March 28, 2009 in Europe’s Capital of Culture.
Promoter Adam Booth and Head of Boxing Dave Coldwell will join former world cruiserweight champion Haye and allso present at the press conference will be Liverpool-based Hayemaker boxers Derry Mathews, Tony Dodson, John Watson and Joe McNally as well as two-time British light middleweight champion Ryan Rhodes.
Full details of “Hayemaker 6” will be announced at the press conference.
“It was always a logical move to come to Liverpool given the amount of Liverpool-based fighters we have in our stable,” explains Haye, an ex-WBC, WBA and WBO world cruiserweight king and current heavyweight contender.
“The fight fans in Liverpool are some of the best in the country and they always come out and support their own. They love a good scrap in that neck of the woods and I’m sure the people of Liverpool can’t wait to support a selection of their own boxing on the same night.”
As well as expressing his delight at landing a show in Liverpool, heavyweight sensation Haye will also discuss his own future in the heavyweight division. ‘The Hayemaker’ will be on hand to analyse the weekend’s world title bout between Wladimir Klitschko and Hasim Rahman, as well as outline his plans for 2009.
“I’m certain 2009 will be the year I win the world heavyweight title and now it’s all about tracking down Wladimir Klitschko and snatching his belt,” says Haye, who will be ringside in Germany for Saturday’s bout between Klitschko and Rahman.
“If I have to take a fight before beating Klitschko then that’s what I’ll do. I’ll knock out whoever is put in front of me, and that includes both Klitschko brothers.”
Hayemaker Director Adam Booth is excited by the opportunity of bringing “Hayemaker 6” to Liverpool and presenting his talented stable of fighters with the chance to strut their stuff in front of home support.
“We’re lucky enough to have some of the best boxers in Liverpool belonging to our Hayemaker stable of fighters,” says Booth. “We always had the intention of working with a number of Liverpool boxers because we realised what a great opportunity it would be to put on a show in Liverpool.
“In Derry Mathews and Tony Dodson, we have two exciting fighters gunning for title opportunities and willing to take the necessary risks to get there. Meanwhile, John Watson and Joe McNally are two of the brightest prospects in British boxing right now and are well on their way to becoming quality fighters.”
