I'm glad Haye has shed some pounds, he's coming in much lighter for this fight than his last two.
I was worried with the lack of weight limits he would balloon.

Not sure if anybody has posted this anywhere, but in case not and seeing as he's a stablemate:
Groves fight tomorrow is off. Shame as I was looking forward to watching it live on Sky.
"
Sky Sports reports that George Groves will not be defending his recently acquired Commonwealth Super-middleweight title against James Obede Toney (not to be confused with James 'Obese' Toney, who is a completely different fighter) tonight after Toney failed a medical. Toney's failure to pass his exam was purportedly due to a cataract problem,which left him with much-reduced vision.
It is mentioned that Prizefighter winner Patrick Mendy was offered the chance to replace Toney, but he refused the bout. This is a completely understandable decision from Mendy, whose best fight would probably fall short against the unbeaten Groves, and a reluctance to jump into his biggest ever fight on less than 48 hours notice is not a black mark of any consequence against him.
Groves will now fight on the David Haye vs Audley Harrison undercard on November 13th"

Waste of time and a waste of money for anyone who pays for it IMO, but I am not watching so will just say what I think.
I'm a miserable sod because I would like to see Haye face better fighters more? It's beyond me why a world champ beating up a journeyman is considered a good night.
It is pointless. It serves no greater purpose. It is like watching Joe Calzaghe fight Manfredo, it just doesn't make any sense.
Oh, but lots of money! That's what I don't get, the public could be going for this, but for real boxing fans to be getting into it? That's just a bit sad.
It is a poor reflection on the British boxing public. They would probably get excited by a toothless granny in a tent.
