Ha! The t-shirt was edgy and very cocky, but 'Enry is wrong - it IS selling tickets, and in big numbers. Haye single-handedly, let's be honest Wlad fans, has made this a much anticipated contest. Wlad's the firm favourite in my and most people's books but he should thank his lucky stars to get a hype machine like Haye to fight. It's not what 'Enry would've done but that doesn't make it wrong.
Do the Klit figthts usually sell out or are they half full stadiums? Shame nobody knows who Haye is in Britain.
Henry Cooper is a old wanker... FACT The amount of arguements I've had with people trying to convince them that now everyone knows that Clay never got a change of gloves is unbelievable and it's all that old tosser's fault... Even though the truth has been established, Clay gained an exra 5 seconds, he STILL says that it was 3-5 minutes... What a TWAT.
Henry Cooper is a miserable old fraud who has dined out for years on being utterly destroyed twice by Clay/Ali
What our Enery has to understand is that he might not like the T Shirt, but that T Shirt and pretty much put 70,000 people into the best footbal stadium there is..... it is a fantastic arena...... pure genius... it certainly got Vitali and Wlad's back up..... they coould sell 50,000 of them easy... that's the business Enry... the good old greenback $$$$$$$$$$
Everyone may love Ali now, but people forget that a lot of people back in the day saw him as an annoying big mouth. Frazer still despises him to this day. The Tshirts nothing really worse than the likes of what ALi spouted in 'enrys day. Just promotion really. I like Wlad and I think him a classy guy, but cricky he's a bit boring isn't he.
"Utterly destroyed twice" That's why Clay didn't know where he was in one of them, the second one hardly saw any action until the stoppage too. :huh
It is a pity that Cooper has to embellish this story still to this day. A simple "the **** didn't know where he was after that left" would surely suffice.
How the **** has he got a knighthood when Lennox hasent?****ing disgrcae anyway ,im not goignt o mince my words,henry cooper is a ****.Ppl look at him throught htese rose tinted glasses like he was some 'Ero'.I cant be botherd with him. He was also qouted ass aying that hayes tshirt would also put folk off going?Has he not seen the tickets sales?Do us a favour Arry and do one
Don't you know? Cooper beat up Clay and terrorised the heavyweights throughout the 60s, culminating in the death of Sonny Liston after a heavy sparring session with 'Enery's 'ammer. :bbb
True. Neither should have one. Cooper has one because of one left hook he threw. Still, he was a very capable fighter at European level when all's said and done, with a few good wins on his record (Folley and Mildenberger in particular and not to mention bursting the Urtain bubble). When all's said and done, he captured the British public's imagination like no other fighter from his era, only Billy Walker came close to comparing in that respect (in terms of gate money at least). It's not his fault he goes on about the Clay incident all the time, he's probably asked about it every single day he walks out the door.
