    Why is no-one pulling up the shoddy journalism when they keep saying that Haye is the first British Heavyweight World Champion since Lennox?

    Have the ****ers forgotten about WBF Heavyweight Champion of the World, Audley Harrison? :-(

    Even more disgusting is some media outlets referring to Akinwande and Hide as former heavyweight champs.

    ^ Nothing wrong with the fight, but the words "heavyweight championship" should have been nowhere near it.

    I think Hide goes down to easily for my liking but I'm normally a cynical git! :D

    BTW, my copy is the HBO coverage and they refuse to acknowledge it as a World Title fight and remind viewers, constantly, of this opinion!

  7. It's a delayed reaction from the previous shot. Watch it again.

    If the missus is working late tonight I'll re-watch it :good
     
  10. Maybe I need to watch it again. I'm pretty sure you can tell on slo-mo replay.

    Still can't see it mate, both shots he takes on the ropes don't look particularly damaging, and neither does the one for the first KD in the round, Bowe hit him on the back of the shoulder and Hide collapsed in a heap :huh
