Haye V Klitschko OFF

[El Kabong]

Don't worry everyone.. Wasn't Corey Sanders a late replacement for someone when W.Klit fought him? We could see him get sparked by someone he hasn't prepared for... then again.. I am probably not putting my money on any1 else.. short of 100:1 odds

#1 It was CORRIE and not Corey believe it or not there is a HUGE difference.

#2 If he was preparing to fight "The best challenger" nay, "the best FIGHTER in the heavyweight division" then wouldn't fighting anyone else be easy for him

I am not hating on David Haye, I'm not hating on his fans...but really had Wlad pulled out there would be much more shit talking "Oooh he's scared" blah blah blah. Wladimir had class enough to accept Haye's pull out of the fight for what it is an "injury" it really doesn't matter about the reality of Haye's injury but the result can be great for boxing.

Tell me which you would rather see

#1 A Heavyweight Champion fights a guy who moves up from cruiserweight without much heavyweight experience.

OR

#2 A Heavyweight Champion fights a guy who has moved up in weight but has proven himself vs very capable heavyweights and has earned a title shot.

....option #2 is best for Wlad, Haye, the sport of boxing, and the fans of boxing, it's win all around. Sure Haye could slip up but if he's all that and a bag of chips like his fans profess that he is, if he's the true "savior" of the heavyweight division then he'll surely pass whatever tests any of the aforementioned sorry heavyweights could throw at him...so why not build the fight up? Why not have a REAL rivalry instead of this one that Haye has manufactured? Why not let Haye become a REAL threat before Wlad cashes him out of the game Well it's rather simple, neither Haye nor his fans think that Haye is a well rounded boxer, they don't think he's perfect, they don't think he's unbeatable, and they don't think he has anything more than a puncher's chance...infact the Haye fans KNOW he's vulnerable, they KNOW he's got flaws in his game, and they KNOW he's in real danger vs Wladimir Klitschko....but they are stuck on that puncher's chance, just as they were with Henry Cooper vs Ali or Frank Bruno vs Tyson.

Haye needs to be a real contender and not just pretend to be one on TV...he needs to earn a shot like Holyfield did before him. Holyfield fought a couple of bums and then a couple of dangerous fighters before he got to Tyson and look at how good he turned out to be.

I wonder when Tyson Fury will step up....he does have more wins at heavyweight than David Haye

I wonder when Tyson Fury will step up....he does have more wins at heavyweight than David Haye

You do genuinely see the Heavyweight division as an entirely separate entity from the rest of pro boxing don't you lyle?...

Pretty much, rarely do guys move up to heavyweight and do anything special.
