    Haye isn't hype, so you will be disappointed.

    The Haye Chisora fight IS BIGGER than the Wlad vs Thompson fight last week. I think that is a fact!! Vitali will want a slice of Hayes big pie after this...despite the risk.

    You think that in Germany Haye-Chisora is bigger than a Klitschko fight? :lol:

    It's probably bigger than Wlad vs Thompson in terms of public interest, but it's nowhere near as big as I thought it would be.

    Jim Rome made fun of the weigh in.... Soooo... Ya....

    Other than that, nobody gives a damn about this fight in the US.

    I guess not much. I thought it was off because of the of the boxing commission ban. Don't see it on box rec. If its on no one in the states knows about it.

    His ticket comparison is another way of nut-hugging Floyd. Floyd charges a bomb for tickets to his fights at the MGM that Bladegunner go to, which makes him better in Bladegunner's view than charging prices fans can afford.

    It's a big fight everywhere. I bet this will be the first fight Klitschko's mother will be watching in a long time. She can't watch the boring ones (Sosnowski-Vitali,Wlad-anyone)

    Nobody in Germany would pay the Klitschkos to watch their borefests it seems.

    It seems whatever Network Haye Chisora is on believes there is a market for PPV events in Germany, as long as the matchups are big and exciting :deal

    They must be really disappointed with T Thompson and Eddie Chambers so there must be some interest, after all Michael Buffer is in there and the fight is in a stadium. Something like they have shown for Haye- Enzo Mac or Klitschko-Chagaev.

    its true that people are talking about it but only for its freakshow personalities.

    This has more akin with a celebrity boxing match than a title fight.
