Haye vs Valuev Undercard announced.....

[ryanman]

I dont understand why the fuck this is on PPV??

Haye hasnt actully got any fans??

Dont you think it's a good idea to let these fights be free to air so more people tune in and build him up.

Khan got 30k ppv's cant imagine how shit this ppv will do.

To be honest mate, it's only a bad matchup for people who know how bad Valuev is.

The general public sees a British HW going to fight a giant. I've heard a lot of casual fans talking about it & being quite excited. Plus if it's not on at a ridiculous time, it will benefit. As bad as Khan-Kotelnik did, Khan-Barrera did very well, because Barrera had the profile to help raise the event for your average fan.

Yep, totally agree. For instance my friend's wife is planning to pay for it. Purely due to curiosity about Valuev's size. As she puts it she 'can't imagine how Haye will be able to reach his head'. haha

I have to totally diagree everyone I know doesnt give two shits about this fight, theres not a chance any of them would pay 15 quid to watch it, i predict this will do terrible numbers.

Theres a LOT of interest about this over here in Malta but no one has to pay for it

Load of us piling into a bar for it and you can get PPV channels here free through Dreambox.

Your bang on mate this will get terrible viewing figures through the UK PPV as Haye isn't exactly a Hatton or Calzaghe.

If he wins (I think he can win this) then he'll be an overnight superstar no question.

The nearer this gets the more intruiging the clash of styles is and Ruslan Chagaev beating Valuev and being only 6ft 1 tall says a lot about how this may pan out.

Haye is def more athletic , quicker and arguably has more power than Chag.
