The media are a bunch of self-righteous twats. If/when Haye-Chisora is made they'll br hypinh it to no end. I bet thr casual fan would be right up fot Haye/Chisora now and the build up would be brilliant. Let's.be honest, a werk ago hardly anyone knew who Chisora was and the Vitali fight was getting very little publicity. One slap later and the fight was mainstream and the main story on BBC sport. The press are wankers...if you get a fighter like Froch who keeps performing at the top level with no controversy they get no publicity or column inches. As soon as you do something stupid or crazy everyonr wants to know. Sad fact is without these nutter characters boxing is generally ignored by the mainstream press.
Headline in the sun today is "Banned for life"atschatschatsch Not even "ban them or life" but banNED ****s
my thoughts exactly. don't know why everyone's getting their knickers in atwist about it - have a look at the bath gloucester rugby on saturday - 2or 3 mass brawls with far more punches thrown than in the chisora -haye melee. banned for life??? get real - they're probably negotiating to make the fight as we speak. no way yhey're going to get banned (and how do you ban a bloke without a license?) we all know that if the £££££££££ are right then the fight's going to happen and the Board will just roll over and have its tummy tickled. haye and chisora both now know that they can make some serious money when both careers were going nowhere. it'll be a huge fight after all this nonsense
The media have gone way over the top on this. Did anyone hear Ronnie Irani on talkSPORT this monrning? Suggested Haye and Chisora get in the ring and give 100% of the money to charity.........and then for them to be banned for life straight after the fight!!? atsch
Irani is an absolute ****wit. He knows nothing about sports other than cricket yet tries to act as this expert on everything.
you might not like it mate but you know damn well this fight is like the harrison-haye farce - load of old **** for the hard core boxing fan, but it'll makea million, will be watched by millions, and although everyone on here will pooh-pooh it and be all negative about it, you can guarentee we'll all watch it!:good
I'm with you man, the media should be milking it and making the fight happen, it would be an epic event.
Absolutely. The papers never want to know whens it something good about the sport, only when its something bad. **** the press.
thankfully I don't live in Britain, as like Harrison-Haye the only people that'll be dumb enough to buy the fight live in Britain
