    I think he's beyond nuts!.. but whatever, at this point he's not fighting any real dangerous threats anyway, so if he wants to mash his brains in even more then let him.

    I think it's a bad idea... but I'm pretty sure he really needs the money... so wtf?

    Who know's? Haye might give him a title shot... It would be a step up from A-Farce anyway!

    **** it let him fight I am tired of arguing he is a grown man he knows the risk involved, **** it, to be honest with you, he has performed much better against Valuev and Ibragamov than alot of these young fighters so who am I to complain?

    Great idea. He's perfectly fine. Best idea yet maybe. At least best idea since his grill came out.

    That someone in his family has a valid lawsuit against whatever commission licenses him.

    He is an elite fighter.

    Like I keep saying, lots of fighters are way worse off.

    You just don't see them.

    Exactly.

    Many thought he at least deserved a draw against Valuev. The same guy who David Haye beat to make himself official.

    Holyfield did much better fighting Valouev than Haye, by far. At least Holyfield was not afraid to try! Haye refused to fight.

    I think Holyfield could beat Haye right now. Haye is a fraud. Tyson said, in an interview, that Haye should avoid The Klitschkos. Haye is doing that.

    Most of the UK team had Haye losing.

    I had him winning, but it was not clear cut.

    Ian Darke was the only one really backing Haye.

    Meh... to be honest, its so far past due that he retire, and hes so obviously not going to, that its a non issue with me anymore. And based on his recent performences im actually curious to see what he can do. I know its a boxing sin to condone Holy at this point but really.... hes going to do what hes going to do. Idk.... its not like hes just going out there and getting the complete **** kicked out of him, and if that was the criteria then all journeyman and even lower, record builder type fighters who have actually lost more fights then they have won should also be 'banned' or 'not watched'

    Holy is a special case though because of his age.... but im kinda to the point where if hes made up his mind to continue, then im not going to make a huge deal out of it.
