    Biggest farce of a world title fight ive ever seen.

    1. The fight was a mis-match, sold on the 2 facts, that people hoped Harrison having getting a world title shot would change his colours and have a real go or that people wanted to see Harrison take a hell of a beating. Neither happened

    2. Sky. For some reason decided against an undercard (1 good fight and some minor highlights) and instead showed Barry McGuigan and Johnny Nelson talk bollocks. Instead of paying for a couple more solid domestic level fights they instead payed god knows to Lennox lewis to say shite all execpt when asked about Frank Bruno?

    3. Sky. Intergrating the Pacquaio/Margarito fight in with sky box office, (which would have been nice for those who didnt have sky sports) could have savded the event, sure people would have been pissed at Haye?Harrison still but it would have softened the blow having a great main event and two good undercard bouts.

    4. Audley Harrison. How he can sleep at night without throwing a punch is beyond me. The guy must have no pride in himself at all.

    5. David Haye/Adam Booth - instead of picking on scared out of their skin losers, these guys need to start taking on world level fighters or top prospects. If not the Klits then at least Chagaev, Adamek, Solis, Boystov. ****ing hell even Arreola will do. These guys have no shame and are only bothered about the pay check. Hope to see Cheetohs Cheesit get chinned bigstyle if he ever fights Wlad or Vitali

    Rant over.:good

    You cannot blame Haye. He fought against having this fight. It was Sky and Booth that pushed him into it.

    Does it really matter if sky didnt put Pacquiao as part of the PPV. They showed it anyway.

    Sky could have put it on both without losing any money.

    As for Haye, being forced into a fight with Audley is a bull**** excuse. Hes a grown man and controls his own destiny. If he said no then there were plenty options to be made even without the Klits. If Haye is sky and booths ***** then he is truly a weak man.

    I can't agree with that. He's his own man and he took the fight. Sky and Booth wouldn't turn him if he had any pride at all. He's deservedly getting slammed for taking this fight.

    David Haye is a man at the top of his profession who always comes across as having a pretty sharp mind in interviews. He is not an impressionable child. He is long past being "pushed" into things. He took the fight freely.
