    Well, Wayne did have alot left and lost.

    I don't like realism? Don't talk ****. I'm one of, if not the, most honest poster on this board. I don't know how to not tell it like it is.

    It was me who was saying pre fight that Enzo is a world champ who is proven on the world stage. It is me who was saying Haye is going to get sparked by a world class operator unless he changes his ways. It is me who said Khans intangiables were not proven and I THINK could be suspect.

    I tell it like it is, don't throw me into the same fanboy/fanatic that you and others are.

    I was surprised with Enzo's stamina, workrate and chin. He came of age in that fight. Much better than a quick KO win. I just realised how huge he is at 200lbs.

    Calzaghe and Wales now have three world champions! :happy

    Enzo was all around better than Wayne. He practicallly schooled him in every session. Braithwaite was always another American fighter that when he needed to step up came up short. Enzo looked good against a good boxer.

    Fanboyism, associated with me? I detest fanboyism.

    I think Enzo's good but I like Haye more, Haye just seems the more exciting fighter to me.

    I'm not sure last nights fight was a particularly good display of stamina and workrate, or chin. I'm not knocking Enzo, or the fight itself, but I would say it was pretty average for a good win (if that makes sense). It was hardly fireworks was it? He didn't take enough shots, or enough good shots for anyone to say he has a good chin and the fight was a pedestrian pace for the most part. He boxed well and showed maturity - very patient, but to be surprised by his workrate, chin and stamina can only mean you weren't really expecting much from him. A good win against his - as of yet - toughest opponent, but that's it.
