    Monte Barrett wobbled Valuev. See the first round of that fight.

    Haye says Barretts jab is like a right hand. lol

    Well, many people have been quoted as saying Haye was the first, even writers on this site?

    And I have never heard him say that but I don't see the point. I don't see why people hate on Haye, he is one of the most talked about heavyweights.

    Watch the fight. Barrett wobbled the **** out of Valuev in round 1. I guess Barrett can knock out anyone in the HW division, right?

    In Valuevs defense he did recover quickly though and land some good punches of his own.

    The problem is all Haye does is talk, he hasn't backed anything up! The Valuev fight was horrendous and that was a worthless paper belt.

    Yeah he does talk a lot but the problem is he hasn't fought anybody for ages and nobody sees Haye performances at CW and they just judge him on his slow Valuev performance.

    Ripple's the biggest Chambers fan on here, I can't blame him for getting carried away. :thumbsup

    He's got to be having a rough enough night with what he saw today.

    This. Also Bidenko had Valuev out on his feet and he has the reputation of being feather fisted.

    Chagaev performance according to the judges was better. The judges dont matter, everyone knows that Chagaev, Holyfield, Donald, Bidenko, Ruiz all did better vs Valuev and did it without running like a coward.

    That same worthless belt that earned Haye $6,000,000 thus crushing his biggest paycheck x10 to that point?

    The same worthless belt that will earn Haye $6,000,000+ per fight from now on that without it he'd struggle to be on Sky ppv?

    What is your definition of worth?

    How about meaningless, insignificant, irrelevant, paper belt that Haye shouldn't even have! Klitschko beat the real WBA champion Chagaev. And even if you didn't consider Chagaev the legit champ Holyfield beat Valuev. That belt is a complete and total farce. If he made good money great for him. The fight sucked and Haye did't look good at all.

    I'm not debating this, however if you know Hayes career you know this is not how he usually fights, but then he'd never faced someone who outweighed him by 100lbs, was 9 inches taller with a 7 inch reach advantage, had he?

    Add to this his hand injury and the fact it was his 3rd fight at heavy it's somewhat understandable and forgivable.

    People go on about how Holyfield and Ruiz looked better, of course they bloody did, they're battle hardened at the weight.

    Haye at least has reasons for how he fought, what's Valuevs? Plodding forward in a straight line jabbing at air don't cut it.

    The Ruiz fight will be the real testng of Haye, only then would it be fair to judge.

    If Haye produces a stinker then I'm switching off, he won't be getting one penny off me unless it's Wlad or Vitali.

    No way. Holyfield wasnt afraid to let his hands go a much better offensive power and more power than Chambers. Not a good comparison, Your just trying to make Wlad look good.

    Glad someone gave Tony Thompson a mention.It was the same kind of fight.The fans deserve better than this kind of fight over and over again.Povetkin is a good fight Haye is a good fight and the promotion companys have had the time to sort these fights its time they took place.Chambers s a decent fighter and he took some good shots but he was never going to beat a fighter with Wlad`s skill and experience not to mention size.

    Vysotsky - You ****ing lowlife *******, what kind of weird **** are you? You're just a Klitschko nuthugging ***** who's mad at me because you felt like I was disrespecting Wladimir, and you have the audacity to rub his win all over my face? Do you realize you're the only cocksucking ******* in ESB that would create a topic just because you were "irritated" about what I said? Guess what all you did was push my buttons you little *****, next time don't create a topic so ridiculous. You creating this topic proves you are nothing but a loser.

    I am a huge Chris Byrd and Eddie Chambers fan and although i knew that they both had no chance of beating Wlad due to missing the needed tools, i always talked myself into believing they could win the fight. Nothing wrong with it. I´ve not seen a disrespectfull post of Ripple, so why now bashing him ? That´s not showing class, my friend !!!
