He was on the Jonathan Ross show last night and came across well.


Its great for British boxing,I cant remember a British fighter having so much attention from the non-sport media.
Even if you dont think he is a good boxer you have to accept that a new star has been born.(in Britain at least)
It is amazing to think throwing 80 punches in 12 rounds , could make you so popular.
Yep.

Considering that the action less Valuev fight is the only Haye fight that a lot of the public have ever watched its amazing the way his popularity has sky rocketed.
