All Quiet on the David Haye Front.....

[Rantcatrat]

Haye needs to put up or shut up. He should be quiet now. Because nothing he is doing or could be doing would merit any press at all.

How ridiculous will Haye look if Adamek fights one of the KBros before him?

You have to respect the Klitschko's. They are cleaning house in their division. Say what you want about it, but they are fighting every single top ten heavyweight. Vlad is fighting Povetkin after fighting Chambers. That is a ton more than Haye can say.

He would be hard-pressed to look more ridiculous at this point.

All I have to say to the supporters of Chicken Little is "What would Frank Bruno do?" If Bruno was in his prime and had the WBA belt, what would he do?

I watched the Haye vs Valuev fight again the other day (somehow managed to stay awake again)

I forgot all about Valuev's ring entrance. What the fuck was all that about? He had his own mini rock concert before coming out!

Just wanted to bring that back up again!

Some of you guys are speaking like Haye has been out the ring for 5 years.

David Haye is the best thing to hit the HW division since Lennox Lewis retired.

Everybody for years and years has asked for an exciting HW fighter. One finally comes along, wins a title and gets a shitload of hate. The divison would be a lot worse without him. And even the haters deep down will admit that. Sure he's got a big mouth, and he aint afraid to use it. But he backs up his talk in the ring by his performances.

If anything he's got the whole world talking about the HW division once again.

So give the fukking guy a break and enjoy him while he's here, its a breath of fresh air from the other champion (No name mentioned) who plods round for 12 rounds using his left jab to reach a boring points decision. Haye is all out attack.

Soon enough he'll be retired on top of the world.

I agree with everything you said with a few exceptions:

- Haye is not the best thing to happen to the HW division since Lewis
- The division would be no worse without him
- Haye doesnt back up his talk
- He hasnt breathed shit into the division

I definitely think the whole world is talking about him though, about how big a snatch he is.

Name a more exciting fighter in the HW division that has came along after Lennox Lewis retired than David Haye ? A fighter that has received this much attention from the boxing public ?

Of course it would be worse without him. It wouldn't have that charismatic figure in it who has that all out attack style. Everybody is only talking about one person in the HW divison. And its David Haye.

He does back up his talk. Went to France to beat Mormeck. Fought Maccarinelli in a 50-50 Cruiserweight bout. Went to Germany to beat Valuev. Haye will fight a Klitchsko, just when the money is right. Haye has just as much power in terms of negotiating as they do.

How has he done nothing when he's won the WBA title ? And please say something better than alphabet titles mean nothing. He's a fresh of breath air in this division that last year nobody gave a flying fukk about.

When haye first won the wba strap it was a breath of fresh ir to HW boxing but now he has got to back it up in the ring.

If he does not fight the Klit boys then there are not many other interesting HWs out there.


I am sure our David will come good in the end and make the klit fight happen.

[mattboxingfan]

Its hard to support Haye when he doesn't take the fights we all want to see, and is very inactive with a big time period between fights but still! He's English and makes fun fights so im still a fan!

From the short piece posted earlier in the thread: "Haye earns as much money in the UK as the Klitschkos earn in Germany. Therefore, that makes reaching a deal much more difficult. We have to insist on a sensible financial agreement."

So, sensible means more than 50% against the guy who is regarded as THE heavyweight champ and who has beaten everyone else in the division. Haye is looking to coast along cashing out whilst avoiding the Klits until the very end. Pathetic really.

Does Haye really sell out 60k stadiums in the UK, the way the Klitchskos do in Germany? If so, I need to find those people because I have some prime real estate (it just looks like a swamp) I would like to sell them.

[OumaFan]

Haye apparently has figured out that it would be best to make some money first in winnable fights before he cashes himself out against Wlad. Its a fair enough business decision but he's quickly gone from the heavyweight divisions last real hope to a full on bore.
