    I think you're underrating Denis a little. He's better than target practice, he's got a bit about him.

    The old Boytsov as a prospect was very much a heavyweight version of Mormeck, very pressure orientated and using his relatively small stature.

    Now he's more of a boxer/puncher but he's a very composed fighter and an accurate puncher. He could be a factor if he shows well against better competition soon.

    Haye said: “I have said from when I turned pro that I’ll retire when I’m 30, so that gives me until October 13 next year.

    “A lot of people think it’s a stupid deadline. It made a lot more sense when I was a 17-year-old.

    “Now I’m closing in on 30 and there are these massive fights around the corner, 30 perhaps isn’t as old as I once thought.”


    Sounds like he maybe reconsidering the 31 thing. A lot of fighters set retirement ages and end up going far past them.

    The quote on that boxing news 24 follows on with what he says though:

    “It made a lot more sense when I was 17. Now that I’m closing in on 30 and there are these massive fights around the corner, 30 perhaps isn’t as old as I thought it once was. Now there are potential multi-million pound fights against anyone I want, people seem to think it’s a silly thing to do. But I’ve always stuck to my guns.”


    Personally I don't think he'll quit not far off a year from now.

    Del Boy Chisora:

    "Sam is a nice guy but too many other British heavyweights talk too much and don't fight enough," said Chisora.

    "Look at David Haye and his on and off fights with the Klitschko brothers."

    "He talks about money so much, he should go and get a job in a bank."

    "He's the world champion and a world champion is supposed to fight the best to prove that he is the best."
