The Official Wlad/Haye Promotion Thread (videos, interviews etc)

Audley Harrison's view on the fight - if anyone cares.

[El Kabong]

Fightnews has reported that the WBA may not sanction the bout due to a dispute on the selection of referee Genaro Rodriguez ....there's no depth too low for Sauerland and the WBA title holder.

....Though at this point the actual belt is just a minor bonus to Wlad, I'm sure he just wants to bludgeon that bastard into submission.

Wba sucks balls they already did this to wlad before...

Pti just talked about the fight and I got to say nobody at espn should be allowed to talk about boxing other than the fnf crew, all they did was thrash the fight just as they tried to dominish what bhop had done when beatin pascal. Its like they hate boxing

ESPN has no fucking clue about boxing or soccer unless you watch shows specific to those sports.

The ESPN guys apparently think its cute to ACT like they have no clue who either of the fighters are or have any idea that a heavyweight fight is happening....why Wlad's not an American....that's all there is to it.

People wonder why boxing is getting such a bad rap its because of people continuously slamming the sport, they NEVER have anything positive to say about it....its all Ali and Tyson and "Man, things were soooo much better when _____" and no other sport (bar basketball post Michael Jordan) had the issues boxing has had with people hating on it.

They weren't sure which klitschko was fighting, said didn't matter they're both 45 nowadays...and all they said about haye in as many words "who da fuck is that". This fight might be huge to us, and in europe but over here the casual sports fan has no idea its going on, doubt more people know about this than knew about joe call- kessler, its ridicelous. What makes it worse is the pti guys claim to love boxing and slag mma, yet they know jack about boxing. Boxing is dead in america sadly

Tony Reali attempts to covey that he knows something about boxing. Kornheiser is a goofball and Wilbon is just a punk "Ooooh listen to me I'm from Chicago, I know everything"

The guys on Around The Horn are even worse...Bill Platschke or whatever his name is is a damn moron and don't EVEN get me started on Skip Bayliss....pathetic.

Screw them, I'm going to watch this fight and have fun doing it!

I'm 99% sure the title will be on the line. I can though for once see where the WBA are coming from. This guy has let Wlad hold excessively in the past and that is something that should be addressed.

On simple solution, use a referee that hasn't been used in either mans fights before!

[Hornfinger]

IMO the ref should be a neutral, someone like Cortez or kenny baylis. Smoger would be excellent for this fight.

"All I need is someone to count to 10"

.....Yup, that really narrows down the field huh?
