Haye-Valuev - Who wins? Fact.

[Rantcatrat]

Is this fight being aired on any american television stations? Internet sites?

I like Haye in this fight. Though he is still a total bitch for backing out of fights with the Klitschkos.

[Fenster]

Has anyone else noticed how BIG this fight is in Britain?

Sky have hyped the shit out of it. The papers, news and radio stations have plugged the shit out of it too.

Seems even more so than Hatton-Floyd.

They did the same thing with hatton vs vince phillips and khan vs prescott. Its called marketing

If this was on setanta sky would barely give it a mention even after the fight!

Not like this you donut.

It's not just Sky, this fight is being mentioned everywhere, I can't believe the hype/interest in the last week.

They are predicting good PPV buys.

^No doubt that is true.

Aside from Klitschko/Arreolla getting some press out here(not a lot either mind you), it's been a long time since any heavyweight fight has been mentioned by more than a passing interest. As for Americans getting excited about it, not sure why they would get excited you have a Russian fighting a Brit with the winner likely to fight someone from the Ukraine. It's really true that most Americans won't care about a fight unless an American is fighting.

[HattonTheHammer]

No excuses tommorow night fenster please

If haye goes down it`ll be because he lost to a better fighter!!

Yeah that's why Don King's man made me laugh, "huge in Amercia" yet it's not even on TV over there, right?


Hammer, he'll have lost to a bigger fighter.

[Wayne]

hatton, I'll still do a sig bet with you if you have Valuev. I am rooting for Haye in this one, but I don't think he has the goods.

I think it's on some off-brand cable network as PPV, haven't seen it advertised though. We have Dawson/Johnson II with Yorgey/Angulo on the undercard non-PPV on HBO.

Yeah it's on 1 PM channel 501, when I get home for lunch I'll see how much it is probably $49.99 if that's the case a streamin I will go.

Nah, it's $24.95, I'm certain of that.

Anyway, I'm really rooting for Haye as he's a South Londoner & a Fitzroy Lodge alumni. I think he can win this, but I saw an interview with Adam Booth the other night where he said 'Valuev is a lot better than people think'. This I do agree with. I know he gets a lot of shit, but he's surprisingly adept at cutting down the ring & his jab is not as slow as people make out.

On the other hand, Haye has great athleticism & should have enough to beat him, but his tendency to lose concentration in fights can cost him dear. The discipline remains the one key question mark hanging over him for me, more so than the chin. However, if he can KO him that says a lot. I don't care what people say in size & weight differentials, it's similar to Nonito Donaire KOing Giacobbe Fragomeni at their natural weights. That deserves some credit should he do it.

Anyway I'm going to go with my heart & say Haye by KO in round 7,8 or 9.

[Kirkland Laing]

Yesterday you though he was going to win.

...and a while ago you thought the Civil War was about slavery and that Bill Maher wasn't a hypocrit. But I don't go around waving that in your face.

I merely chose Haye to win simply because I want him to suffer his career ending defeat vs Wladimir Klitschko and not Nicolay Valuev....I still think Haye is horribly overrated, he's lucky he's just fighting Valuev

You picked him to win a heavyweight title in his third heavyweight fight.

And onlu in your world did the US civil war start because of something other than slavery. Like I said, you'll never beat me in an argument, future arguments between us will just be a continuation of the one-way ass-kicking you've had over the past couple of years.

[skel1983]

I have noticed the same Fenster there advertising this everywhere even when you are watching another sport on sky if scrolls across the bottom of the page, really hyping this and the hype this is getting is way ahead of Khan v Prescott.


The newspapers have been reporting on this fight everyday since monday, I thought tghis fight will do shit numbers I think i am going to be wrong.
