And I told my friends "This is a heavyweight fight worth watching, someone's getting knocked out"
;D
So much for adding new fans to the sport.
I got such gracious responses as:
"What the fuck was that?"
"I can never get that hour back"
"That cornrow douchebag is a fuckin pussy"
"What's the point of boxing anymore?"
"Who was that Ivan Drago guy?"
"Did you hear MMA has a bantamweight division now?"
"Are all fights that lame nowadays?"
"I wish HBO had MMA instead of boxing"
"I missed Women's World Cup replay for that?"
Yeah, my bad for expecting at least an exciting finish from this, what a load of shit of a fight. I guess it's been so long since there has been a remotely entertaining HW title fight.....................I expected too much and bought into the hype. Well next a good PPV comes on, I'll be watching with you d-bags on here again instead of real life friends. Can't blame Haye for the hustle, everyone wants that dollar, and he wouldn't get anymore facing anyone else.
Killer, it's obvious your real life buds (forgive them, 'cause they know not what they do) aren't hardcore boxing scumbags like your buds here.Quote:

They're casual boxing fans (or at least they were at some point). They aren't looking for the sweet science as much as a purely entertaining fight. Personally, I try to get whomever I can to watch more boxing, because that is something the sport needs is more viewership stateside. This fight didn't help my case, in fact it hurt it.Quote:

Yeah saddly plenty of casual fans saw this and are probably turned off boxing for a bit, where as not many saw ortiz-berto, or morales-maidana those fights would have gained boxing some fans...but no seems like all the big fights lately, the ones the the casual viewer would know about, been mismatches or borringQuote:

Big fights rarely live up to the hype, this fight was hyped to the max, mainly by Haye. A bunch of us were saying before the fight, that this could end up being somewhat of a disappointment if it went the 12 round distance and didn't end with a KO. None of my real life friends are boxing fans, but there is a big interest in boxing all over the U.S., I know this because the only reason some guys have HBO and Showtime is to watch boxing.Quote:

You can hate on haye as much as you like,But the simple fact is that heavyweight boxing would be even worse if haye retires.
Yes he lost and openly admitted he didnt back up his talk,But what about wlad who had he's best night's work and still looked shocking....Wlad wont take a rematch because he know's second time round,Haye would take him out.

Where's Smashup at these days anyway? :bag:
Anyway, the thing I think we have to accept to learn is that these days, Super Fights NEVER live up to the hype.
Like I said it's my bad for believing the hype, clearly I should know better. I just figured one of them was going to get KOed spectacularly, even if most of the fight was boring. The last time I thought an entertaining fight was coming for two Americans, I almost tried to sell the bait too (Bradley/Alexander) but thought of it better when trying meeting up with friends.Quote:

There is no way Haye will get a rematch unless he can somewhat redeem himself with a good win over a arreola, thompson or povetkin. No Network would buy a fight between haye and either Klitschko at this point.
