I met David Haye today!!! (PIC NOW INCLUDED)
Wow I still cant believe it.
Right now I'm in a hotel in London awaiting to fly to Las Vegas first thing tomorrow morning.
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:

Re: I met David Haye today!!!
That's amazing! It's already crazy enough to see boxers in real life if you're going to see them but to run into them out of nowhere is a rarity.

Seriousley mate. I couldn't beleive a former undisputed world champion and the whole talk of a Saddo's at the minute LOL was on the same train as me nevermind seeing him out of the blue. He was on his own as well. Really nice guy!

I think it was more of you having him as your avatar and you defending him to the death that it was that much more special to you.
If he even knew how big a fan you are of him, he would've felt humbled. BTW, I want that shirt!
...only if I could somehow run into Optimus Prime...

I think that's one of the reasons I love this place.
Even though some people don't like, sometimes despise, certain fighters. If a Saddo fan meets one of those fighters, you can't help but feel happy for them.

Sorry I didn't. I was quite speechless and just asked the usual how are you etc. I did ask "Where the hell are you off to?". He looked to be in quite a hurry actually. I would have also like to ask him a few things about the Klitchsko's too. I did at the time imagined if Lyle was next to me and to see if he would still call him a loudmouth prick standing face to face.

Re: I met David Haye today!!!
That's pretty cool Lefty; at least he seems like a nice guy, willing to chat with his fans, and doesn't come off like an ass with people. I wish I could meet Carbajal, Lewis or Foster; it would be very cool indeed. Safe trip buddy.
-
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Haye's still a wanker though;D
-
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
One thing I like about you Lefty, is you don't ditch your fighters when the going gets rough for them.
Did you tell him you had a fight lined up too when you hit LA? lol
Enjoy your trip buddy. :)

Re: I met David Haye today!!!

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.
As for Hatton the Hammer I'll upload the pic as soon as I get home. I haven't got the lead for my phone that connects to my laptop. I'm home the 8th August. It will be up as my new avatar then. His t-shirt is fuckin quality trust me ;D
-
Re: I met David Haye today!!!
That's pretty cool, fair play for going up to him. I must get that T Shirt!!! ;D
My 'Ketamine... just say Nay' T shirt is losing its novelty value... ;D
I saw Hatton in the NY NY Irish bar in Vegas a few days after Pac fight. I didn't want to bother him as he probably gets pissed off by it all. Before I knew it my 2 mates were with him having their pic, I just thought fuck it and got in on the pic too. Hatton was totally arseholed and stank of beer, glad I made the effort and got in the pic tho..
I then saw him again in surprise surprise an Irish bar in Dusseldorf the day after the Klitschko Chagaev fight. I thought I'd be greedy and get another pic. I even tried to make a joke out of bothering him by saying it was my 2nd pic in as many months and I shouldn't be greedy. He didn't even look at a me and just grunted for the camera. :rolleyes:
If you don't want to get hassled by Engliah fans why drink in the one bar you know will be full of them?

Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Well done mate, but you will never ever get the chance to ask him the questions you wanted because you froze like a groupie.

LOL. I didn't want to ask him too much stuff since he was on his way to check into a flight like myself was. He seemed a little hurried. Don't matter though.

Did he pull out half way into the conversation saying his back hurt?

Re: I met David Haye today!!!
I would have asked him is he really fighting Valuev, why is it on Sky box office, did your back really get injured are you in Cyprus for tax reasons....

Re: I met David Haye today!!!

Sucks for you cuz she's your sister. Cuz those are the best type of girls

Re: I met David Haye today!!!
Could've been a "representing Saddo moment" for us all here, have you had your wits about you...LOL.
Haye surely would have found the time, knowing you're a Saddofan, just so he can deliver some, that'll get the hound dogs here back off his case a bit and hush up.
Very cool, man! Waiting for the pics.

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!!!
Okay guys my sister finally managed to upload the pic for me as I'm here in Vegas and she emailed me it this morning.
Here it is with the train nicely in the background. How awesome is his T-shirt :p
