    Well, I'm confused then because given your statement I assumed that it must have just been a couple from the last four

    Why are you limiting your critique to just his fights at heavy??

    His performance against Vlad was no worse than most peoples in the last few years.

    All Valuev fights are lousy.

    He said him self the Harrison fight was a mismatch but the public bought it

    I dont understand all the hate for him. If you don't like him, dont tune in.

    If I hate someone I dont waste my time whinging about them. There are other fights to watch apart from Haye.

    Look at it this way, if Haye v Vlad didnt happen it weren't like Vlad wouldve been involved in an epic war with someone else instead lol


    Haye knows himself he aint the best heavyweight ever, but its a dangerous sport and he wants to get well paid for it.

    Because why the **** would fights that happened years ago at a lower weight division be relevant to his status as a heavyweight contender or as a challenger to Vitali Klitschko ?

    The old saying is, "you're as good as your last fight" ... but I'll alllow Haye a bit more leeway that that. Let's be generous.
    I'm happy to average out his last 5 fights going back FOUR WHOLE YEARS to assess how good or exciting he is .... and he scores low.
    The only thing he scores high on is his mouth. And everyone knows this.

    Vitali would probably outweigh him more than 2 stone, so I guess we can expect a shitty fight then.

    Haye's recent record at heavyweight is not that good. It never was.
    I'm not sure why pointing that out even causes much debate. It's just obvious.
    The man talked his way into a big reputation. The results and performances were very mediocre.

    "I'm just judging him on his fights, they are awful. " No mention of just HW fights....you made a blanket statement which doesn't actually hold up in the face of the evidence.

    Haye does not deserve another title shot and while the brothers have the belts he will not get one. as Adam Booth has said "it's finished", it's over for him.

    in a way Chisora talked the talk and walked the walk, he actually tried to do what he said he was going to do, he went there to have a fight.

    Haye had his chance, we had to listen to 3 months of threats, insults and boasts and then he blew it with a negative performance and then watch him embarrass himself afterwards standing on tables flashing a toe.

    in my opinion Haye looked desperate saturday night at the post fight presser, shouting, rambling on, to me he looked like he was almost begging for a shot and then he disgraced himself swinging punches and camera tripods.

    **** me he's annoying :twisted:

    Knows nothing about the sport but says its dead, there arent any good fights anymore & the sport is all about hype etc

    The guy defending boxing is a clueless casual fan & isnt doing a good job of making Durham look like the troll he is.

    Ok, you're right.
    Some of his fights years ago were pretty good. :good
    I was thinking in context of his current or recent career.

    Yes they do,

    but so do actions, attitude and game plans and Haye did virtaully nothing against Wladimir after all his bull****.

    all i'm saying is Chisora backed up his boasts in a way by going out and having a go.

    Can you give me a reason why Haye deserves another shot at a title or either brother after that Wladimir performance? becaue I can't think of one.
