    The nail was hit perfectly on the head, Haye is in a very different stage of his career. Plus, what more can he do to impress people? He unified a division, then moved up a weight and began calling out the best fighters in that weight. He's now beaten one of them and only has 2 left to beat. You cannot argue with what he is doing. He is making a name for himself (although often goes about it by running his mouth)

    Plus the Valuev fight, Holyfield did the same approach, just not as good and got a pat on the back for a good effort. Haye did it and won, but gets no credit.

    Mayweather took a similar approach against Marquez (similar not the same) but gets labeled as the best ever. Counter punching and in out tactics were the olny way to beat a guy like that
    This post got me wondering. What is the biggest HW PPV in history? Is it Lewis-Tyson?

    Thank you Lyle.

    Yeah Haye Valuev is a much milder version though. Some people were actually being bored to death rather than just sleep in Wlad-Ibragimov!

    dude Lyle give it a rest, i can't stand Haye yet i'm not even bitching about the dude as much as you do, people can't deny that the dude can talk shit with the best of them, making him a popular fighter, he's getting plenty of attention on a international level, does that mean he's a great fighter? no, but he is still getting buzz from fans

    on a flipside, people can't really bash the Klitschko's either seeing how Vitali Vs Arreola got a good amount of attention, and that's pretty rare feat in itself for a HW title fight nowadays, but yea i don't think that Haye/Valuev or Pacquiao/Cotto are the only fights to bring boxing back to the mainstream, i go more with Cutmemick, DLH/Mayweather was everywhere leading up to the fight, same goes for Mayweather/Marquez, you were hearing bout piss drinking everywhere leading up to the fight lol
