    i agree with Mikeeod.

    Haye really annoys me because he loves himself so much. Watch him being interviewed and he keeps closing his eyes when he talks about himself, just like a cat being stroked.

    He loves the celebrity circuit and all the trappings of fame. Those things don't make real fighters.

    His non effort against Wlad was shameful, then to blame a wide wide wide loss on a broken toe! If you can't fight properly due to injury, you shouldn't get in the ring (yes, Manny, you too). That is cheating the paying fans.

    Talking of which, Haye has no problem in cheating the fans as most of his fights have been zero risk affairs that allow him to blow people away quickly without getting touched. His last two 'fights' have been total con jobs.

    He disrespects the sport, and he disrespects fans.

    The REALLY annoying thing is that it didn't have to be like this. Haye is (was) fast, strong, skilful and he could really hit. As an offensive machine, he was exciting and dangerous. He likes hurting people and has that vicious streak.

    When I look back on his career in years to come, it will be as one of unfulfilled promise. He has always had a stamina problem, and that will be worse now he is bigger. Anyone who can withstand five rounds or so will IMO stop an exhausted Haye.

    Nicely written article, Whyte makes no money (and why should it), Wilder wont fight him unless its for a title and big money - the top 3 are not UK box office, rightly or wrongly.

    Box office is bollocks ppv crap. AJ is manufactured/political by Sky and Hearn to become box office but they could easily do the same for Haye and Fury if they wanted. They sold Bellew v Cleverly fight as ppv as well as Haye v Audley so they can do it for anything.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
