Really mate ? I got the train from Lime Street down to Euston this morning. Then from Victoria to Gatwick station.
Currently at a hotel round the corner from Gatwick Airport on my laptop.

So I was at the London underground at Victoria station waiting for the Gatwick express train as I'm flying from Gatwick Airport.
I'm boarding the train and my Dad says there is a guy in 1st class that looks like David Haye. I was like no way seriousley I'll have a look when I get off thinking why would Haye be on a train to Gatwick.
So I'm getting my bags off the train as we depart and once all the crowd disappear I await to see if my Dad was bullshitting. I was hovering around the 1st class to see if he would come out. Next thing I see this huge guy with braided hair carrying about 3 suitcases and on his own walking towards me. I take a closer look. Oh shit! That's the Hayemaker. I literally fukking ran over to him and he dropped his bags, took his headphones off and started chatting to me. I said "Hey David how's things" still very much in shock. He replies "Good thanks mate" and shakes my hand. I said "Were are you off?" and he said "Cyprus for my training camp". He still looked half asleep actually as if he'd just woken up. I said can I have a pic and he was like sure no probs. Got a pic and then said "Best of luck in the Valuev fight do us proud". He said "Cheers, appreciate it" and shook my hand again before going up the escalators. I was going to say something about the Bitchsko's to him.
Like 5 mins later as I was checking into fly I seen him looking at the notice board of flights and people started hovering round for pics etc. I'm still made up and can't believe I met him out of nowhere.
I'll put the pic up when I get home as I haven't got the USB for my phone. It's actually a good pic. You wanna see the t-shirt he is wearing (Not a behaded Klitchsko one Lol) It's one with the words "LUNT COVER" With the letters "C,U,N,T" in big bold white writing. What a guy ;D
Anyways I'll be staying online for a bit until I fly tomorrow morning. I just bought 24hrs worth of internet access to keep me entertained in London. Catch you all laters :cool:
Did you thank him for pulling out of the Klitschko fights so you didn't lose your sig bets:D
JK mate...I know your a big fan glad you got to meet him
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Cool, I would love to meet one of my fav boxers especially in that way.
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Nice one Lefty, it's always cool to meet someone you admire and even better when they have some time for the fans.
I met Henry Cooper when I was a kid and he was doing promotions in a store, he tore a piece of cardboard off a display to give me his autograph as I didn't have any paper.
It was 100 years ago so no mobile phone for a pic ;D
Have a great holiday buddy
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Awesome for you lefty, great that you got to meet your favorite fighter David Haye.
Did you ask if he was going to actually fight Nicolay Valuev or if he was still just bluffing?
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
this is a cool story - especially with it being such a random meeting and catching you by surprise.
Have heard from people on facebook that he is a really approachable guy - guess he has plenty of time for chat with him not being in the ring so much ;D
Tommy Hearns walked through the bar I was in in Vegas befor Mayweather Hatton fight. I was that dumbstruck and caught by surprise I kind of just stuck out my hand and he shook it - I completely forgot about the pen and camera I had with me....(I often groan when I think back about that missed opportunity).
look forward to seeing the pic ;)
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Sweet man congratz.
Ive alwayz wondered wat it be lik to meet my fav boxer. Truly a unique experience ay?
Re: I met David Haye today!!!

Re: I met David Haye today!!! (PIC NOW INCLUDED)
Good for you Lefty. That is a funny shirt alright. Nice pic too for a phone camera. Had my pic taken with Big Bob Mirovic a couple of years ago from a phone camera. Kind of looked like we were conjoined twins or something and neither of us were recognizable.
