He was on the Jonathan Ross show last night and came across well.
Its great for British boxing,I cant remember a British fighter having so much attention from the non-sport media.
Even if you dont think he is a good boxer you have to accept that a new star has been born.(in Britain at least)
It is amazing to think throwing 80 punches in 12 rounds , could make you so popular.;D
Re: David Haye,biggest star in British boxing!
Why do some people take david so seriously,when he talks??...I think haye has been a breath of fresh air in british boxing and he has livened up the sport and even reached out to those that don't like it.
Is it so bad that a a guy says exactly how he feels.No beating around the bush.???
I thought as usual,David came across as a very humble guy on the jonathan ross show.

I actually think Haye can be quite funny and think he has the skills to be very succesful. He looks far better now than he ever has done, so I'm not sure how anyone can say he's in decline?? :rolleyes:
i dont think he unified the cruiserweight tittles i cant remember him winning the ibf version

Bell was stripped by the IBF (for not facing his mandatory on time) before going into the second Mormeck fight. So obviously never lost the belt in the ring.
So by rights Mormeck-Bell was for the IBF, WBA and WBC. Haye then beat Mormeck. And for good measure took the WBO title of Enzo Macc.

Yep.
Considering that the action less Valuev fight is the only Haye fight that a lot of the public have ever watched its amazing the way his popularity has sky rocketed.
