    "I'm taking this fight to save boxing," says 'The Hayemaker'. "I'm doing this for Jack Dempsey, Rocky Marciano, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier and all the other great, smaller heavyweights of the past.

    "I feel as though I've been sent by all the great heavyweights of yesteryear to clean up and save the heavyweight division.

    "I'm a man on a mission to save boxing from this Eastern European invasion of Ivan Drago clones. The clean-up operation starts with Wladimir on 20 June."

    Actually I do like a bit of cricket! :oops:

    It shouldn't have annoyed me but it has. This fight doesn't need hype because apart from Klitschko vs Klitschko or V Klitschko vs Haye it is the biggest fight in the HW division...

    Haye, even if he wins, wont deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as the lineal and great champions he mentions at least not until he beats Vitali and defends the title a few times.

    I think he deserves a mention for coming up from cruiser to beat the best HW in the world. That's certainly worthy of consideration.

    But surely Haye is just pointing out that the Klitschkos and other heavies of today aint fit to lace the boots of the greats from past eras. He hasn't compared himself to those fighters, just said that he'll try and clean up the division out of respect for them :bbb

    err....you're David Haye, you won a couple of cruiser belts against Mormeck and Maccarinelli..wow.
    He's massively overrating himself unfortunately and will look a bit daft if he gets banjoed by Wlad, as is likely.

    Or Audley Harrison who never lost his World Title in the ring. Those tossers stripped him, I'm sure, because he wouldn't go off to Iraq and fight... His quote "Those Iraqis never called me Fraudley" sums up the greatness of the man.

    Hmm, last guy to say something similar was James Toney, not a good omen.
