    Hayemaker is looking like a wank promoter so far with his awful fights. He should concentrate on his own career instead of playing games like this.

    Hopefully the prospects move on. Glad to hear Wale ****ed him off after being messed about with for so long.

    funny thing is the card in belfast has sold out, which says more about martin lindsay than it does hayemaker.


    they should thank their lucky stars for this dude, as belfast people know boxing and without him this card would have, in no uncertain terms have absolutely bombed.........no pun intended but no one would have gone. lucky for adam booth

    its easy for him to put on a **** card cause he knows lindsay will sell most of the tickets anyway.there isnt much boxing in belfast anymore so a local lad fighting for a belt doesnt need support to sell

    Dunno how you can say this, theyve put on some well matched fights all across their cards, unlike the usual maybe 1 or 2 well matched fights (or none in some recent Warren cases) and then just 4 round fillers.

    You would think there would be more than 6 fights.

    I don't think the card is that bad, though it is by no means up to their usual standard.

    Woodhouse needs to get a move on though.... he has looked decent so far and ought to be pushed.

    Nah they have not. They put on one or two ok fights then just the usual mismatches.

    Imo they've put on harder fights involving theyre prospects than any of the other promoters have.

    I prefer less fights of a longer duration.... and rather than just good fighters, I want to see good fights.

    Nah they are doing the same as the rest of the promoters. Look at the fights on recent bills they actually came off and the 5 undercard fights which are a disgrace considering the good fighters involved. Hayemaker are all wind and ****.

    Yep. Haymaker 8 should be over pretty quick.

    George Groves original opponent dropped out I think.

    I checked on Boxrec a few hours ago and he was fighting a guy with a 15 - 2 record.

    I dont think its supposed to be a massive show, just a saturday night filler for Setanta. Ticket sales for the 2 big shows at the 02 and LEA were very poor and they would be better off starting with British title fights in smaller arenas.

    Disappointed Price isnt on this card, They should try and get him out every month like hennesey has with Fury. Even if it is to knock over a punch bag.
