david haye on soccer am

Least hes making efforts to get himself known to the general public.

 

His time will come.

I'm looking forward to it though it must be said, so he is doing a great job of promoting the fight.

It will be odd if it does take place in England and I go down and cheer for the Klits as a Brit.

 

I don't understand why you would cheer against David Haye with you being Birtish, considering everything he has said he has backed up.

 

I've been a Wlad fan far longer than a Haye fan. I caught Haye early, after he iced Williams in like his 10th fight and really liked him. He had a cheeky, brash, swagger in those days and came off as confident, not arrogant. He joked about his defeat to Thompson and came off as very good humoured.

All that changed when he defeated Mormeck. Suddenly he turned into this narcissistic ***** who completely disrespected his opponents, with the cheeky confidence turning into full on arrogance.

So when it comes down to him or Wlad, a classy guy, highly intelligent, been involved his own fair share of exciting fights (contrary to what many haters will have you believe, though I do accept since he got with Steward he is less entertaining)...I know who I want to win.

I also respect Vitali a great deal, but feel that sometimes he's a bit of a bad winner in victory with some of his antics. He really ought to stop calling out LL too.

 

For **** sakes u brits, wld u like him to go on TV and suck the Klits arses (sic)

Haye is a great talent and shld be supported.

 

i agree i support haye and aint even british

 

he doesn't seem overly arrogant or disrespectful to me. cocky and confident yes...sometimes annoyingly so.

but lets face it, there have been plenty of popular fighters who have been much worse than haye. boxing wouldn't be better off if everyone behaved like wlad.

 

That's just a part of it, nationality isn't really that much of a factor when I choose to support any given fighter. It's mainly about their style...and yes personality.

I've liked Wlad since I first started seriously following the sport back in 2003, and for me, the guy is an exciting fighter as well as a classy guy. Even under Steward, I enjoyed the scrap versus Peter, the rematch versus Brewster and the higlight reel KO of Austin was also great to watch considering it was a shitty enforced mandatory.

I'm staying loyal to Wlad thats all. However, I won't deny that Haye has made my decision easier with his antics over the past year or so.

 

Agreed. I don't find him arrogant at all, he's confident and funny with it. Some people take things far to serious.

 

Self promotion mate! It's something that we Brits are very uncomfortable with, but we shouldn't be.

Too many good people in all walks of life have been overlooked because it's not "British" to blow your own trumpet.

Well I say, get in there, don't wait on it coming to you because it may never come. If you want it, go out and get it.

British boxing needs David Haye.

 

Wlad is annoying.

 

id say haye gave that fine looking soccerette a good seeing too after the show she a teacher and all

 

Haye's done what he's needed to do to increase his publicity. Everyone knows who David Haye is now, if he wasn't so brash and (appearing to be) arrogant then he wouldn't find himself in the great position he's in now.
