David Hayes a tosser

David Haye is a very exciting fighter. I always try to watch every fight of his, knowing that it's likely someone is getting knocked out, but...

He's a businessman more than a fighter. He's not someone who really cares a great deal about legacy. He hasn't had many fights in his career, he now fights only twice a year and will retire next year. Will he fight a Klitschko? Maybe, maybe not. Does he want to fight a Klitschko? Maybe, maybe not. I don't think he really gives a **** about the fans.

He's not like Bernard Hopkins who fights because he just loves to fight, and because he wants to seal his legacy. He doesn't care about the fans the way Manny Pacquiao does who always wants to make sure the fans get value for money. He's not one of those people who will take on all the toughest challenges the way Carl Froch does.

As a fighter, he's very easy to watch, but very difficult to support. He's just not fan friendly.

As far as his personality goes, David Haye is an articulate, somtimes funny guy, but sometimes cringeworthy. He's difficult to hate, difficult to love.

He makes stupid, stupid videos that make him look like a complete twat (such as the one where he criticized the Klitschkos choice of opponents and tried to justify his ducking) spouts so much bull**** ("I fought Audley Harrison because the fans sent me thousands of e-mails begging me". "I was a bit resentful because I thought this fight wouln't sell". "I bet on myself to KO him in the 3rd round". "Actually, no I was only joking)

I didn't like his trashtalking of the Klitschkos and Valuev either. Talking about the mans appearance, like a homosexual.

To sum it up, I think he's an exciting fighter, but I feel sorry for his fans. I don't care if he's english, he's just not a fan friendly fighter. My favourite fighter is Manny Pacquiao. He deserves my money. That's a fans fighter right there, unlike Haye with his bookazines and ****. I will say this though. The heavyweight division would be duller without him. That is, when he actually gets in the ****in ring.

Flint, I understand your dislike for David Haye, and I do agree with a lot of your points. However, there's no need to show disloyalty to Enzo just to get your point across about Haye...

 

Aye. Enzo regularly reads these forums and he'd be disapointed to hear that.

 

why is everyone in a rush to see haye fight the klitschko and then retire.

who will there be to anger people,to make them laugh,to make them want him to get knocked out or knock some one out!.

people love talking about Haye whether they like him or not.

he brings entertainment inside and outside the ring.

and all the klitschkos press propaganda has infleunced everyone brilliantly,they are tough businessmen then they are boxers!.
