Because he had power and was knocking opponents out at cruiserweight,that got his popularity up.But now,a lot of fans have turned on him,and for good reason.
he got more publicity from calling Wlad names and calling him out after the Mac fight (post fight interview outside the ring) then the fight itself:deal
The Klits may be boring...but at least they arent AFRAID to fight the best....and they dont brag about fighting the best..they just do and keep winning. Haye says hes exciting, which he was as a cruiserweight....hes fought garbage after the mountain of **** he has talked about fighting the best...if the best on a scale of 1-10 is a 10...Haye is fighting 2's at best....if he were fighting at least non retired guys and the ones not retired almost 40....then it would be as bad.... EXCITING means NOTHING when doing so against the absolute frauds hes been fighting.....i would rather see vitali klitschko beat up an undefeated guy for 12 that has a punchers chance like Arreola or Peter...than dacid haye to "electrify" the crowd with that "heavyweight excitement" he promised by koing 40 year old has beens or 40 year old bums like ruiz and audley....no thanks CLASS DISMISSED once again Jack :hey
After the Mac fight,that interview,Haye must of been high as a kite,he was talking like a tosspot on drugs who thought he was way above what he actually was.
To be honest... the interview after the mac fight was the first time I really heard of Haye... I mean I heard the name but didnt pay attention... his rant got him that attention.... like I said... much more then the fight itself your right... Haye was JACKED UP:yep
Fighting Chirosa = Haye fight doesnt happen. Solution if you have respect for boxing fans and your own fans = cancel Chisora to get it on with Haye. Make a wee sacrifice to get the mega fight on :good
nothing was signed......VERBAL agreements ONLY.... we know what Haye has done with VERBAL agreements before. Haye knew wlad had a cut off date for Chisora.... it came.. contract still not signed.. so wlad took a sure thing... simple as that. No reason Haye couldnt take it. he said 9 weeks wont work, yet wants Vitali 9 weeks after solis... could have said... Vitali steps in if Wlad cant ala Adakek:deal.... but he threw his hands up and walked away
why do peoiple pretend that beating chambers or arreola would make a difference to Haye's HW resume, those are 2 regonal level fighters and anyone who thinks different is fooling themselves. the divison is ****, you got the Klits and everyone else is any easy fight for Haye ( and visa-versa)
He went down in my estimation, yes. People can say he wanted to fight both, but, at some stage, he would have known that if he went ahead with the Chisora bout, Haye would pull out. He shouldn't have done ahead with it but he did. He's gone down in my estimation a lot in the past few years though. The deals K2 have offered have been bull**** and, ultimately, the fans have suffered.
