    Should this be the electrifying David Haye's last big payday? Should David go off to Hollywood now to try to make a B movie or two?

    Haye should retire. He won't have any passion for boxing after this.

    No he shouldn't. Despite the fact he simply lost to the better fighter, he did bring a lot of life and excitement to the division. Him losing probably hurt the HW scene.

    So Haye had a broken toe but I did not tell anyone. He ran around well during the fight, didn't he?

    They should all retire. I'm done with the heavyweight division.

    Yes. I'm sure he's made some nice money and my eyes have seen enough of him in the ring for one lifetime. The guy used to be exciting, but he's turned into an even more version of B-Hop during the first half of the Taylor fights, only with more power and average skill. I doubt he has the same hunger.

    I think they should rematch for sure I would watch it I didn't think the fight was that bad or too one sided Klit shaded many rounds but didn't totally dominate Haye still got some nice punches in.

    Haye deserves the benefit of the doubt over the toe imo maybe he was in really bad pain everytime wlad leaned on him certainly many occasions you can see Haye wincing in pain from it.

    It was the hardest anyone has pushed wlad Haye is still the best other than the klits imo.

    I compared them only in the sense that over the 1st half of the Taylor fights, he was GOD AWFUL boring - much like Haye has been over the course of his entire heavyweight career. But I did say Haye isn't a fraction as skilled as B-Hop. I don't care much for this shitty division either.

    Tony Thompson presented a bigger challenge and is the better heavyweight.

    And real fighters fight through the pain.

    Well Haye is a twitch fighter that launches himself like Rjj in to a punch I don't think anyone can say wlad dominated every round for 3 minutes of every round.If you call missing a whole lot landing the occasional jab and right hands you can count on two hands total domination I am like :huh

    I'd rather watch Haye wlad II than watch wlad fight anyone else.

    You can bet your life wlad would have postponed the fight has he broken his Toe in training and Haye should have done the same.
