He's just picking up where James Toney left off at Heavyweight (trash talk wise). Personally I think the big guys need more trash talk to get things motivated, it is such a slow moving division. More fights more often, generate some excitement, put something on the line.
Look in 2007
Wlad - IBF Champ - 2 fights
Sultan Ibragimov - WBO Champ - 3 fights
Ruslan Chagaev - WBA Champ - 1 fight
Oleg Maskaev - WBC Champ - 0 fights
Personally I look forward to having Haye at HW, at least he gives us something to talk about inbetween fights.
Well there are mandatories and eliminator fights and hell Wlad had to pull out all the stops to get a unification fight.
David Haye brings nothing different to the table....if he was a DKP fighter then hell yes Don would move heaven and earth to get a tournament where he would be involved
I usually can't stand David Haye for his arrogance and the crap he talks..but he has proved himself now and it is a bit more warranted.
I also didn't like it for the same reason I don't like Anthony Small's arrogance and loud mouth..because it seems like they're trying too hard to be arseholes. They strike me as nice guys outside of the ring and just seem to be putting it on. My suspicions were confirmed today by my trainer who was once in a film with Haye who revealed to me what a really nice guy David Haye is. Same with Anthony Small, I work with one of his friends.
Also I didn't see much wrong with that radio interview...maybe I'm used to Haye nowbut I thought he showed Charisma and a fairly good sense of humour. E.G, When they played his entrance theme vs Enzo. We need more charisma in the heavyweight division seeing as there aren't any characters there what so ever. I'm split on Haye. Part of me wants him to get knocked out due to his arrogance but another part of me know's that he'll be good for the heavyweight division because everyone can agree that it needs a damn good shake-up!
I agree, i like haye. Hes actually a very pleasant guy, doesnt talk about money money money all the time and WANTS TO FIGHT EVERYONE! HE DOESNT WANT TO DUCK ANY FIGHTS!
For heavens sake, you have people saying 'no, he mustnt fight klitscho'
WHY NOT
Haye will finally bring excitement to the division. In a division where most fighters are ducking people, with hardly any talent...do you people not want to see an exciting fighter who goes for the ko?
Sometimes i wonder whats wrong with people. THIS IS BOXING...WE ARE BOXING FANS ARE WE NOT? SURELY YOU WANT TO SEE EXCITING BOXING MATCHES
Haye vs klitscho will be a brilliant fight, big punches, 2 guys with questionable chins...2 big bangers...great entertainment.
LETS GET READY TO RUMBLE!
Well the reason I say Haye shouldn't fight Klitschko is because if we want Haye around for the long run then it's better for his career to have success at heavyweight by fighting and beating the smaller guys and then going after the belt holders and THEN having a unification bout with Wladimir.
...if Haye fights Wlad anytime I think Wlad is going to win but as for right now Wlad would stomp a mudhole in his ass and Haye's career could be in jeopardy because of it. Look at Sam Peter, he fought Wlad a little early and he hasn't been the same since then
Evander Holyfield had to go through some decent competition before Tyson would even consider fighting him and Evander was the greatest cruiserweight in the history of the sport.
I have no doubt Haye will fight Wlad after he has had a number of fights at heavy. He is not stupid, he will get used to the weight and build up his profile. Possibly in 2 years time he will fight and unify the division. He is just building up interest in a very boring division.
Haye said he was Bigger then Holyfield.... Also Wlad was being condescending and asked how much Haye weighed... Haye fired back 220lbs
