    I don't see the point in buying many autobiographies/biographies, especially if the person in question is what? 31? He's not even half way through his life yet. Haye loves the ££

    Is there anything we don't know about haye to make people buy this book? He's hardly shyed away from the camera over the years, plus those magazines he did being all about him, I can't imagine it giving us any fascinating insights into how the mans mind works.

    I love sports autobiographies but generally not until after the writer has retired.

    Is he still doing the Hayemaker magazine or was that a one off?

    Almost finished it & am really enjoying it, would recommend it.

    Its not an autobio, its written by a guy (Elliot Worsell) who followed 1st met Haye as a budding 16year old reporter & became a close friend of his. Lots of detail from inside the camp & interesting personal info.

    It is very well written & I'm looking out for any other work he does, got my copy for £9.99 in Asda.

    Joined up and in crayon. Luckily, as Dr No has informed us, Elliot Worsell wrote it...;-)

    Remember, Haye's now 'retired' though. Retirement = biography.

    However, as someone else has already said, Haye didn't write this book
