1) We all know the boy has very fragile health... Anytime he doesn't perform it's either because he hurt his back, injured his finger or had a period. In a way it's quite surprising his jaw still holds up, given all the strain he puts on it with the incessant ****-talking... 2) In light of his spectacular back-pedaling and joint-stinking skills, not to mention his epic sense of humour ('I am the best heavy-weight boxer in the world' in his post fight interview) - Haye clearly has a bright future in the circus (the 'back-pedaling, ****-talking, joke-cracking, stink wonder' anyone?). What makes that option more appealing is that the risk of injury is far smaller, and the number of things you can blame once things don't go your way is much longer as well... (slippery asphalt, bike too heavy, temperature too high, saddle uncomfortable - you get the picture). Given that he fights once every two years the money might well be comparable also (and he won't have to abstain from sex, pre-fights so his wife would probably second that as well...). 3) Finally, retiring now is the only way he'll retain his 'title' for long. Put him in with either Klit (or even a Chambers, Solis or Gomez) and he leaves on a stretcher - which even blind judges might find difficult to rig. Instead, if he retires now the legions of die-hard Haye sack-suckers will be able to go on for years about how he was the best thing in boxing (ever) and how he could have taken Ali, Marciano and both Klits out in one night... (which, accidentally, might even be true - but only if we organised a back-pedaling contest). So he becomes a living legend - surely not a bad thing (with a lot of marketing potential)! So, if you seriously consider 1), 2) and 3) retirement from professional boxing is really the only logical option for David right now. Given yesterday's 'performance' dead), I say: Just do it!
How old are you? U shud go to sleep son. And STOP with that crack! Its not good for u. Makes u make a fool of yourself on ESB
Why so much hate? It was a decent performance by Haye and people should give credit where its due. He fought the biggest heavy in his only his 3rd HW fight and it was for a title. Im not a Haye fan but I think he was allright.
I have to - sorry, 'haye' to agree, he goes up against a Klit, he's gonna get himself stretched. All Valuev had to do was add a jab every 10 seconds to earn the UD, he couldn't even remember to do that. Haye couldn't even earn a credible victory against such a pondering heap. Even with Boxing at it's lowest ebb since the WW2, Haye would be KO'ed by half the top 10 if he dared venture across the pond. The kid is a disgrace to british Boxing.
yeah total disgrace he is, two weight champion in 24 fights, heavyweight champion after only his 3rd heavyweight fight, total disgrace
