116-112, 116-112, 114-114 MD Haye.
Not impressed there at all really, when Haye opened up he looked good, but this doesn't give me any confidence of him against the Klits.

Yes! Get In!
Not the most stellar performance but he won.
Can't think of single person who's looked good vs. Niko.
Not even Holy who argueably beat Niko and not even Ruslan when he beat Niko.
Soooooooo speaking of shit matchups, Ruiz has 1st dibbs on Hayes title. ;D
A few pounds earnt. Always going to be the result......
This is an awesome result for British boxing and the heavyweight scene!
Although I didn't see the fight but have read most saying Haye didn't have enough output he clearly deserved the decision. It's completely wrong that someone Valuev's size, along with the Klitchkos are in this division. Boxing definately needs a super heavyweight division so we can watch heavyweight fighters of Haye's size and talent involved in proper tear ups. I'm not surprised Haye didn't want to go in guns blazing for 12 rounds. Good on him. I'm glad I was wrong and a dodgy hometown decision didn't raise it's ugly head.
Well I think the massive height advantage played a big part in cautious nature of the fight from Haye. Ive followed Haye for years and years and what impressed me is HE BOXED his way to victory. Thats the first time ive ever seen him be so patient and composed. It was a stinkfest for sure but you can never ever accuse Haye of not being an exciting fighter, if you dissagree go and watch his other fights. 1 bad fight does not make a boring fighter when they've knocked out pretty much everyone else they'v ever faced.
GET IN HAYE !!!! :D
Wait what? A superheavyweight division to accomadate Haye that's nonsense.Quote:

Man, that was such an underwhelming fight. Both guys looked terrible... I think Haye's economic style probably did enough, but either of the Klitschkos would destroy him I reckon, if he ever grows a big enough pair to fight them that is. Vitali in particular would be a nightmare for Haye.
I think Haye vs. Arreola would be a great scrap though. :cool:
I thought valuev won but only because of haye's dismal punch output. I was surprised at how much speed the big man had. You don't expect giants to have any speed at all. Very boring fight, but it was still a hell of a lot better than the dirrell/froch fight.
Was a shit fight, I'd like to see the stats on how many punches were landed in that fight. Not many.
Dire fight.
But who care, Bermondsey has a World Champion!
Lol c'mon Oggie you have to be taking the piss. 24 fights; 3 cruiserweight titles; 1 Heavyweight title.
Because Haye's always been scared of taking on a challenge !!! What a suprise he says he's gonna fight one of the Klitchkoes (however its spelled) next. I'll sig bet anyone that Haye fights one of the brothers next, frankly i think he'll lose but you can never claim that Haye has never taken a challenge.
Haye won, but he didn't exactly "revitalize the heavyweight division" with that performance.
I had Haye winning 115-113. Either way, close fight, no robbery.
I'll take a sigi bet with you that he fights Ruiz next, because if he doesn't the WBA will probably GIVE the title to Ruiz and make him defend against Valuev.Quote:

Some people make me laugh on here Dirrell did exactly the same against Froch and was hailed as a boxing masterclass, Haye does a similar job and no one is giving him credit hahahaha, love the unbias opinions on here. ;D
