Never once did I say Kirk Johnson was a credible heavyweight force! I merely commented on his return to boxing and given the lack of depth and consistency of the heavyweight division (outside of The Klitschkos) I merely stated that an in shape Kirk Johnson would prove to be an interesting matchup for some contenders and journeymen, I never even said Johnson would win. So Hornfinger just give it a rest
Well no one has come up with any real explination to dislike him.
What's worse, me saying 'You're just jealous of David Haye because he's good looking and British!' Or you fuckers actually hating on him because you're just jealous of David Haye because he's good looking and British?
Truth hurt gentleman? I think so.
The klits are top of the pile, haye has done more than any of the fat bums in the division to earn a shot. Will he beats the klits who knows, I don't. But I will back him when he does fight them.
I am absolutely amazed that there are people on here that claim to be knowledgeable boxing fans yet seem completely oblivious to the notion of spin.
Any fan of boxing knows the negotiations to huge fights never go smoothly. fighters winding each other up and getting pissed off with each other is part and parcel of the sport and has been going on for years.
Adam Booth giving the whole 'Haye needs a break' is just more spin. Does everyone on this site believe everything they read? It's more mind games, nothing more nothing less. I find it funny, almost as funny as lyle touting kirk johnson.
I personally think Haye vs klit will be announced before the end of next month.
He talks endless shit, was given MULTIPLE opportunities to back it up and failed to do so. He has now been called out by THE Heavyweight Champion of the World Wladimir Klitschko and this flimsy response from his trainer/manager is all we get.....well that and his trainer saying that "We're (trainer and his charge) not sure who the real champion is and maybe we need to find that out before we fight Wlad or Vitali"
This is great, for once I actually have some inside info on why they might (and I stress might) have come out with this.
As I mentioned in another thread, I met Steve Bunce last week and among other things he mentioned that Freddie Roach's team had called David Haye and effectively said something along the lines of 'well Adam, you've done a nice job with him, we'll take it from here'. Obviously Booth told them to fuck off. Anyway, Booth felt that this had been partly instigated by this journalist Davies, who has very close ties with Roach (he apparently basically acts as his UK mouthpiece). So he was pretty pissed off at both of them and it's apparently not a new thing with how he feels about Davies/Roach and them trying to take Haye away from him.
On the basis of that I'll let it go, but I like everyone else would be disgusted if Haye doesn't actually fight one of the brothers, especially with that shit he came out with about Mayweather/Pacquiao being a fight that needs to happen for the sake of the sport. Those in glass houses etc...

I'm not defending Haye and I definitely don't think Wlad is ducking him, but Haye clearly pulled out of the fight becuase the TV company with rights to the fight was about to go bankrupt and he wouldn't have got paid. He had to use an injury as an excuse. It turned out to be a wise decision becuase Setanta did go bust before the date of the fight
