    wtf..For the last day and a half I been on occasion searching for there names on yahoo without a spec of anything that says Haye would ko Fedor?All I see is the old news of him stating he would clean out the hw division(boxing) and give mma a try.He states he has a martial arts background and understands that theirs more to mma than just boxing.He had a humble opinion about mma and I dont see why all of the sudden he would call out Fedor.

    What a selective way of quoting. He NEVER mentioned Fedor, he said "obviously I am never going to be at the level of guys who have done jiu jitsu their whole lives" he said he was a huge fan of MMA but that he has martial arts training and does some grappling work with jiu jitsu guys in the gym.

    He said he would take a year to train on his ground work and that he would love the chance to fight the top guy and that he would obviously be "a huge underdog".

    But yes simply take one sentence and then twist that to be him saying he would KO Fedor.:roll:

    I think someone took that and ran because David Haye talks a lot of **** in the boxing world. He doesn't say he is going to knock out everyone, but it seems he is unimpressed by every boxing match in the last year, which to me is a huge slap in the face to the boxers who go through the wars they go through.

    Haye should concentrate on Haye, and as far as going MMA, I think it would be great. I always wanted to see a top level boxer get in to an octagon, and despite his **** talk he has really proved himself in a boxing ring.

    I never said he claimed he would KO Fedor, I simply printed what he actually said. Him wanting to fight the best guy in MMA, while a bit arrogant, is to be expected. He would get absolutely annihilated however, and that would be great.
