Haye's Comments

"I'm taking this fight to save boxing. I'm doing this for Jack Dempsey, Rocky Marciano, Joe Louis, Muhammad Ali, Joe Frazier and all the other great, smaller heavyweights of the past.
"I feel as though I've been sent by all the great heavyweights of yesteryear to clean up and save the heavyweight division.
"I'm a man on a mission to save boxing from this Eastern European invasion of Ivan Drago clones. The clean-up operation starts with Wladimir on 20 June."

:good

Come on Hayemaker!

 

The only thing that's going to be cleaned up is David Haye when they have to scrape him off the canvas at the end of the fight. This guy is just a fake ass Lennox Lewis. Even if he does win, he'll be forced to fight Vitali next. If he wins that fight, he'll have to rematch Wlad and then rematch Vitali should he beat Wlad again. The Klitschkos have a strangle hold on this division. It will stay like that unitl one or both of them retire.

 

Awesome.

 

This guy can sell a fight.

Proof is that he has got it! Love him or hate him, he has got us all talking about a genuinely exciting HW bout again. Roll on June 20th!

 

This is the sort of stuff we need in boxing. :happy

 

HOW IS HE ANYTHING LIKE LEWIS???? Different style completely, and I agree he's nowhere as good but my comparing him to Lewis you're just hating him.

It's like calling Chambers a 'poor man's Ali'

 

Just what the dull heavyweight division needs, a great big kick up the arse.

So far he's been able to back his words up in the ring. Let's hope he can continue to do the same.

 

I'm talking purely about his attitude, not his in ring abilities. Clearly there is no comparison there.

 

As if Joe Frazier or Muhammad Ali need David Haye to do anything for them atsch

 

wtf are you on boy :rasta fake ass lewis?! completly different styles!!

I dont see any body else in the HW division wanting to make such a statement, the guy is good for the division and win or lose against any pf them he would and has spiced up the division.

 

Wlad will shut his mouth and save boxing for such talkers.

Go Champ knock his ass out.

 

Haye should sign the contract. Wlad is the Champ.

(Insert random pro Wlad comment here....)

:good

 

I was talking about his attitude, not his talent when I compared him to Lewis. Also, he's only good for the division if he wins. If Wlad knocks him out cold, he's no good to the division.

 

"for all the smaller heavyweights"... makes me laugh. haye is at worst just a slightly undersized heavy, though truth is he's around average at this weight.

I like him to beat Wlad, though. I think he's all wrong for WK. Too quick, too offensively minded, too powerful.

 

Wlad will knock him out. Trash talkers are knocked out by Wlad.

Go champ, knock him out. Haye will get knocked out. Wlad will knock him out.

etc.
