What a fucking joke

[Althugz]

what the fuck is with you Brits?!?!?!

Why do you throw that into every rant you have?

Because a lot of you "Chaps" get caught up in a fighter for no damn reason...I can see why Hatton was popular, I can see why Khan is getting some ink, I could even understand Calzaghe(bar him being compared to the likes of a prime Roy Jones Jr....blasphemy!) but there are some fighters who just stay at home feast on bums and crooked refs and you guys won't accept that they aren't quality fighters. I mean honestly if there was any other heavyweight title holder that chose to fight Audley Harrison would anyone accept it? Would people say "This is going to be the biggest heavyweight fight in England since Bruno-Lewis?"......no they wouldn't and why is that? Because Audley Harrison is a bum that's why, because he's already had his ass kicked by shit fighters before and upping the competition ain't gonna help him.

I'm all for supporting your fellow countrymen but there are some times when it crosses a line and just gets ridiculous and this is one of those cases.

We've got guys in the US who feast on bums and won't fight outside their comfort zone, but you don't see me bragging about how great Rocky Juarez or Juan Diaz are.

I'm a Brit, but I'd agree with every word of that.

This!

Lol I too am a Brit and hate Hatton, Calzaghe and Khan..(Although Khan has gone to the states early so kinda have to have a an incey wincey bit of respect for that). Fighters do get too much credit here..it's been like that for an eternity.

We have passionate fans here..But also promoters like Warren etc do a great job of making out that the "WORLD" of boxing is here in the U.K with farcical titles like the WBU and WBO. You'll be AMAZED at how many Hatton fans actually didn't know or give a shit who Mayweather was.."Just another opponent that Ricky will blast out" is what most of the general public actually thought.

I used to strongly dislike Haye too but he too took some steps out of his comfort zone to unify the cruiserweight titles..and has achieved a lot in his small amount of professional fights..But this fight was a joke, make no mistake. Klitschko's have to come next or Haye's noise will start to get boring.

Hahaha i remember the build up over here for the Hatton fight. It was pretty much as you say.

But i also remember the build up the Lacy - Calzaghe fight. Plenty of people told me Lacy would win by KO (despite never seeing him fight), and this was mainly down to a few comparisons with Tyson in the English press.

[irons]

Not on here mate, but the great British public thought this would be a great tear up. Fraudley was a chump years ago, nothing has changed.

[Nameless]

This fight: more effective but more expensive than swallowing 2 sleeping pills for those who did pay to see it.

[shamus mckoy]

audley should have watched the amateurs in liverpool before his fight he might have learned about guts and determination especially from the girls .no big .surprise though::

[Master]

Now I know why he is called Fraudley Harrison.

Agreed glad i didn't buy this but the sad thing is i would have done if it wasn;t being show free on german TV... i will however never buy a Haye fight EVER if he dosn;t step up the compitition.

Well put Saddo. Unless haye steps it up against a klitschko or Adamek, there is no way inhell he gets any of my cash for a PPV.

He'll just get it from your countrymen instead.

Oh no doubt they did a great job building up Jeff Lacy who was greatly outclassed, I saw Lacy fight before the Calzaghe fight and he did look very durable, but the style match up didn't work and Lacy just couldn't handle Calzaghe's speed. I never said the American fighters were exempt from hype, obviously we've had our fair share, but never like England has every young contender from England is the next greatest fighter of all time.....you guys do have very supportive fans, but they can also be quite delusional as well.

This fight last night just boggles my mind, I've never seen such a farce in boxing, just God awful.

That thread was proof of it. Look at how many Haye supporters call Wlad a coward.

Unfortunately you're right. Like many boxing fans I won't pay for another Haye PPV unless he steps it up, but the numbers that bought last night's farce prove that it doesn't matter about the hardcore boxing fans as they can sell any joke fight to the general public and make millions. Its a very sad situation when so many people can be sucked in so easily. It just means Haye can continue to be marketed as "The Heavyweight Champion of the World" and fight bums, picking up massive payouts on the way.

When I tuned in on the stream I saw two guys standing in front of each other with there gloves covering there face. Stream started lagging, I refreshed and Audley was just about to go down...

I counted two people - Lefty and Tysonbruno. So two people represent the opinion of all Haye "fans" (hilarious). You see things in a seriously warped way my man.

[The Fightfan]

An absolute joke. Harrison's paycheck should be with held and he should be banned pending investigation. His hardest punch thrown was a pawing jab. What a f**king joke is absolutely correct.

No there were more posters than just those two that bought/are still buying the hype.
