    Haye DID fight a while back. He ran for most of the fight and went down more times than a crack *****. Lost by a virtual shut-out.

    And then he showed everybody his sore toe.:yep

    Yeah... can't wait to see him again. He looks good against the Chisoras and the Harrisons but he just can't cut it when he steps up to world class.

    Haye stood in the pocket all night and did not do any running. Wlad was too afraid to press him. You dont know what the **** you're watching.

    lets remember David Haye the most exciting fighter ever also is relegated to fighting on Epix so it can't be that bad right?

    When Haye had one belt he was on HBO and selling PPV...Wlad has all the belts and cant draw flies to dump.

    Is there a reason why he can't fight on Hbo or Showtime?

    I don't understand why people have a problem with EPIX.
    They are a newer network, positioning themselves as an HBO and Showtime alternative. The movie lineup is pretty good, and they've featured several fights over the last few years, and they are ahead of HBO and Showtime in Internet technology (live streaming of fights)....plus at least on Dish it's just $7/month, while HBO and Showtime are both $15+

    You mean Haye's ONE appearance on HBO then he got banned from the network?

    Appearances on HBO:

    Mr. Excitement David Haye 1

    Manuel Charr 1

    It's hilarious the same people that bash Wlad for fighting on it praise Haye.

    I have Comcast so can't get Epix to me as a Boxing fan the more channels that show Boxing the better.

    Why aren't all the top dogs on Epix? Its a station that features lower tier fighters...NBC shows showcases better fights and boxers.

    They were both banned. HBO did not want Wlad back on their airwaves.
