A different fight? You mean like Haye vs Wladimer?



Bilbo those seats were already sold for the Wladimer vs Haye fight, they didn't go on sale the day the Chagaev fight was signed. Just because all 61'000 didn't ask for a refund doesn't mean they bought tickets anticipating Haye getting replaced.
There will always be reasons to knock him for some of you. But the facts are that he took on a difficult opponent, a world champ and world number 3, at three weeks notice and completely dominated him in front of a record crowd.

If it was a flyweight taking on a fellow world champ at three weeks notice and winning in that manner he'd be leaping into the top 3 p4p, with Donaire probably being promoted to number 2

@Adam, if you wern't talking about this performance why slate him. You are basically admitting he fought a good fight so what more does he have to do?
Because he fights far too safely against inferior opposition
I never said that he didn't box smartly or win cleanly Bilbo... that is besides the obvious topic at hand.
