Classic. ;D
Smash...I did say that I thought this would be a short one....that 37-1 record was deceptive, and I was sure that if Audley took 9 rounds to dispatch this guy, then Haye would do it sharpish. I also think the 11th ranking by the WBC was deceptive...for f***'s sake his last opponent was a debutant.Quote:

Mormeck is gonna hit the canvas HARD within 6 minutes
MARK DAT ;)
Not sure what's happened with Oboh v Oakes...Sky were saying that there was some controversy behind the scenes and they've jumped to another of the undercard fights. I reckon one of the fighters has walked out on that British Light-Heavy title fight. More news when it appears on the tellybox.
I also won big on killersheeps comp with that fight. That would really piss him off ;DQuote:

hahahaha
I reckon Howard Eastman showed up and he and Oboh got into a who is more mental arguement and they both spontaniously combusted.
For prediction comp purposes that goes down as a UD for Oakey Cokey OK chaps. Cant say fairer than that
Laugh it up funnyman....I coulda been doing something else other than coming home especially to watch 105 seconds of boxing. I could be shooting pool and getting mashed with my mates, but no! (Well actually my mates ditched me for RBR'ing too often..there's a new loose cannon in the social group) I sacrificed for 105 delicious, destructive fantastic seconds of David Haye's boxing career. Fwock it, decent trade! :pQuote:

I think it should score the same way as change of opponent if someone backed out.Quote:

I'm having a nervous breakdown cause something went awry lol
what do I do...what do I do...what I dodo...I dodo...I dodo
OK, so I will add to my previous statement and say I came home for 105 seconds of fabulous boxing and a good few giggles, you cracked me up there mate!Quote:

If Oboh is messing Frank Maloney around then I reckon that will be all she wrote for his career, cause no promoter is going to want to touch him if he's prone to last minute faffing about like this. While I'll wait to see what they have to show us about that, I reckon him getting his title stripped is the least he deserves pulling out so late in the day. If he'd gone a day or two ago at least they could have found another guy to take the fall. At 39, I don't see any way back for him personally.Quote:

One thought that occurred to me is that he might have been bitter that neither Warren nor Maloney had got him a fight in three years, and so decided to do this in an extremely ill-guided form of revenge.
Maloney was there trying to convince him to fight, and offered him a three-fight deal if he won tonight in front of tv cameras. Personally, I'm leaning towards Oboh finally getting close to that ring and realising that he didn't want to be in there. The sad thing is that the British Light-Heavyweight title has been held up by him for three years, and right on his comeback he quits and gets stripped of it, so no other LH's in the country have been able to hold it.
Firstly have :coolclick: Super secondly what a great way to start in hw division i was hoping he would do it in impressive fashion and he did well done Haye.
Haye will beat the bloody piss out of Mormeck and I'm not talking about a kidney punch.Quote:

Just am not sold on him quite yet, looked very green there. Impressivebut not anything that would beat Mormeck or Bell imo. Overwhelming to his opponent but Mormeck and Bell aren't going to be overwhelmed by anybody. His left hook, especially when he throws it low, is very slow. Doesn't pick his hands up, smothers his opponents a bit and rushes in without throwing punches. He was better about that last bit this fight (it's available on Youtube) but he still did it a bit.
He's very big but I'm not sure how powerful he really is. I liked that 1,2 of his though. But Mormeck is a very cagey fighter who doesn't go flatfooted which is something ALL of Haye's opponents have done up to this point.
Mormeck is to much for Haye imo, at this point. Not to be down on Haye but honestly I don't rate him much higher then Enzo and American prospect Jonathan Banks. I think he is developing nicely, but to jump from Bonin, who lets be honest just isn't anything more then an average fighter on his very best night, to Mormeck or Bell is a huge jump in competition. Haye needs to be in there with craftier guys, which is why I threw out Braithwaite because he would just be getting fed to the lions imo.
And it looks like the Mormeck fight is going to be made. Don't like this one bit for the Hayemaker.

Strange one
Superb analysis as per usual. CC. I was fairly impressed with Haye's performance but you are correct,there are flaws and he not fought anyone remotely close to Bell or Mormeck,both of whom are 2 tough tough fighters!Quote:

The expected clash between Peter Oboh and Tony Oakey for the British light heavyweight title did not take place. A ring announcement by Oakey went thus:
‘Peter Oboh has refused to fight. It’s not my fault, it’s not Frank’s fault. I’m absolutely gutted.’No further details were forthcoming, and there was no way to get close to events on the ground thanks to the uniformed jobsworths holding us at bay.
It appears that Oboh deliberately sabotaged the contest. He was aware that he had decided not to fight the day previously, but turned up to the Arena, allowed Tony Oakey to change and warm up, then announced his decision. Why he chose to do this is uncertain.
Frank Maloney offered him a three-fight deal if he would go ahead with the bout. This was refused, Oboh simply saying, ‘I stopped Tony Oakey and it was called no contest.’ He then claimed that his managers Spencer Fearon and Dean Powell were aware of his decision, an allegation they deny utterly.
British Boxing Board of Control Secretary Simon Block says that the light-heavyweight title has now been declared vacant. He said, ‘I am pretty confident you will not see Peter Oboh in a British ring again.’
Oakey was deeply disappointed, saying, ‘I was going to take the man out no-one wanted to fight.’ He feels particularly for his Portsmouth fans who travelled to see the match.
Robert Lloyd-Taylor v Craig Watson
Welterweight
Craig Watson’s last outing was against the talented John Fewkes, who was technically far in advance of anyone Craig had faced to that point. He lost his unbeaten record that night to go to 7-1-0, but many thought he did well against an opponent who came too early for him.
Lloyd-Taylor, at 13-4-0 coming in, was very negative through much of this 8-round bout. He’d hang his lead hand out there like it was washing to dry and let it flap in the breeze. He made nothing of his height and reach advantage. At first he kept his left elbow nice and high, which was just the right defence against Watson’s heavy left hooks from his southpaw stance, but Craig was quite capable of switching to get past it.
Watson got off first with his right-hand jab and was throwing multiple hooks in round one, well blocked at first, but having more and more success. He got the more experienced man on the ropes in round 2, but failed to keep him there. Taylor came back with a good uppercut. He was looking more alive and countering well in the third as Watson stepped up the pressure, but looked more vulnerable as the round wore o. Taylor landed some big right hands in the fourth, but then seemed to slacken his workrate again. Watson landed a strong left hook in orthodox as the sixth opened. In his natural stance he had begun to utilise a strong overhand left and this came into play in this round to huge effect to put Taylor down. It looked as though his knee had collapsed but the fall was the result of a punch and duly counted. Watson was already ahead on my scorecard. He tried to follow it up with a couple more good hooks to the head but the round expired. Those big left hands had given Craig bags of confidence, and he was slapping away Taylor’s jab with the back of his hand like it was a mere irritation through round seven, putting together sharp little combinations, and showing off that switching ability. Taylor caught him with a left hand on the way in, however. Watson nailed Taylor in the closing minute with a very strong left body hook for another trip to the canvas.
Taylor came out fighting for the final round, landing a left body hook but he’d been tiring for a while now and was warned to keep above the belt. Another signature overhand left to the head from Craig, who was showboating happily by now, and a double jab set another cracking one up, to put Taylor on the floor again.
The referee Jeff Hines’s score was 78-72. Personally, I thought it was a total landslide for Watson.
There were many hopes for Lloyd-Taylor, but no-one watching this fight objectively would be in any doubt as to who was the more talented, and certainly hungrier, fighter in there. Now Watson can forget about Fewkes and build on this excellent performance.
Sam Webb v Alexander Spitjo
Light-middleweight
Sam came out with all guns blazing, but Spitjo landed a big right hook and an uppercut early. He was presenting lots of angles to an opponent who looked at first like he wouldn’t be able to figure him out. A recent debutant, Spitjo landed some excellent combinations, like the right over the top of the jab followed by a steep left to the chest, which were giving Webb pause. But the Chislehurst man clipped him with a hook, then knocked his head back badly with an uppercut. Another right hand, then a big left and Spitjo was stunned on his feet. The ref Richie Davies jumped in to save him at 2 mins 11 seconds of round 1.
Sam Webb improves to 6-1-0 (3), Spitjo dips to 0-2-0 but shouldn’t be discouraged at this early stage because his potential was very evident.
Akaash Bhatia v Dai Davies
Featherweight
4 rounds
I was interested to see how the young Welsh super feather champ would fare in this match. He’s a tough little boxer, coming off a solid defence of his title against Riaz Durgahed in February.
The House boxer Bhatia is being talked up as ‘gifted’ and his promoters looked to him to ‘kick start a run of stoppages tonight.’ He’s had one knockout so far, against Sergio Tertii in January.
This was a fast-paced contest in which both fighters showed that they had speed, aggression and variety.
Bhatia dominated the first round with a good overhand right and multiple hooks, but Davies was always coming forward and looking for a way in. In the second there was a lot of close work and Akaash again had the better of it on the inside, with two right uppercuts to the heart and a good left hook. Davies landed a cracking left head shot, however, and his workrate at long range was very high. A drawn round for me. The third was a close one, but for me Davies took it as he worked a strong double jab and overhand right, with a couple of left hooks landing cleanly. Bhatia was landing a long left and caught him to the sternum on his way in. The Harrow boy lost his gumshield for the third time, clearly a fitting problem. He lost it again in the fourth.
Davies was working the jab well and found a lovely strong left counter as Bhatia threw his right. There was a lot of accuracy from the Welshman, a nice left upercut to the body and multiple combinations. Bhatia was driving him with the jab but Davies remained slippery. Akaash landed a good right uppercut on the bell.
The referee saw it 39-38, presumably with the same drawn round I had, for the House boxer Bhatia. It was very close and could have been scored a draw.
Tony Salem v John Anthony
Light-heavyweight
Late substitute Anthony took the place of Nick Okoth, and looked much the bulkier man. Salem outworked the Doncaster man to take a 40-37 decision, but Anthony had his moments, notably in the third round when he rocked the Nigerian with a massive right to the head.
Ruben Giles v Kristian Laight
Light-welterweight
The hardest working man in boxing, Kristian Laight, was back tonight to give another beginner, Ruben Giles a strong workout. Kristian has fought three times this month, and the boxing world couldn’t manage without him. He always gives his opponents plenty to think about, never slackening pace for a second. Giles was putting in plenty of effort himself and was obviously keen to show what he could do, some nice combinations there although Laight blocked many.
Giles improved to 4-0.
I just finished watching the fight....
Haye looked good he won and he shut out Bonin...
One thing though I don't like the way Haye holds his left hand so low he NEEDS to keep that left hand up anyone with good power and a fast jad will set him up for the straight right. He NEEDS to improve on brigning the hand up other then that their really isn't much to go by since the fight just last about 1 minute.
Haye looked pretty sharp.. David fires good shots out of a nice relaxed stance,
Haye did look good, but the opponent was there to look good against, he was dropped in his previous fight by someone on his proffessional debut.
I'm actually starting to like Haye, he talks good without trashing anyone. It'll be a pity if he moves up permanently before fighting Maccarinelli, that would be a hell of fight. After actually seeing Mormeck fight recently on the web I don't really rate him, he's slow and plodding. Exactly the kind of fighetr Haye can tee off against.
I think Haye will KO him and he seems tailor made for the Haymaker,Bonin was utter toilet imo and i knew his chin was suspect so fully expected a rapid finish.
The punches that dropped him were delivered perfectly though and he looks so relaxed when he throws them too.
Breath of fresh air is Haye and a top fella too.
