Haye Admits He Was on His A$$

What's your point? I hate pointless threads like this. He won well and if he was knocked down, so what. It was an exciting fight, a fight in which HWs actually wanted to throw punches. That's what Haye is about, excitement to KO or be KO'ed, he has said that all along. For that I have enough respect for him, unlike you.

 

I saw the fight. One of times he was on the canvas was clearly a slip. The other time was from a punch, but the punch landed on the back of his head.

 

Yes the punch landed on the back of his head which caused him to go off balance.

 

fightnews described at as a slip
bbc described it as a knockdown
either way, its mostly irrelevant

 

The punch was on his head in the back.Anyway,what is your point?He took him down 5 times and was clearly the better fighter.

 

It's very clear from the video. Both Haye's feet slip from under him before any punch is thrown. As he's on his way down Barrett is throwing a punch which probably makes marginal contact with the top of Haye's head, although it may be the forearm that actually contacts.

Dubious whether or not you consider it a legitimate knockdown, but it says nothing about Haye's punch resistance either way, as he was going down anyway.

 

Clearly a knockdown if you watch the video carefully, and Haye is big enough to admit it. It's not irrelevant, either. Sure, it doesn't say anything about Haye's chin or anything like that...the punch caught him off balance and didn't hurt him at all, but it does tell something about Haye's style/gameplan...and it's not good news. Haye needs to box more and fight a more intelligent, less reckless fight. If he keeps running into punches like that, one day he is going to get hurt.

 

:good
I would hope that after that post, nobody discuss about that anymore.

 

Just read the article. I'm surprised at Haye's honest comments, "His jab felt like a cruiserweights right", " I plant my feet when I get buzzed." Doesn't sound like he has much of a chin. He better shore up his defense or he'll be ko'd soon. He's going to be fun to watch for as long as he lasts.

 

guess what? in a fight, you can get knocked down by bigger people....it happens..... its what happens in boxing...one guy tries to knock the other guy down....

 

Or he could just be getting used to what it's like to get to hit by a HW...a pretty new experience for him.

Naaaaaaaaaaaaah....

 

I think he's just being overly gracious and kind to monte in that interview it was clearly a slip.

I have watched the two incidents 10 times in slo mo and Haye was not KD or hurt by a punch he took a knee to take advantage of a breather.

And to just do the sensible thing when you've been hit whilst on the floor.

As for him saying jabs felt like cruisers rights again just being realistic and humble in his approach.

I don't care what he says we can all clearly see Monte never hurt of knocked him down in that fight.

So stop the hayeting and jump aboard this much needed exciting show that the Hayetrix will bring to the heavyweight division.

Everyone complains about how boring the division is and soon as we get a little bit of excitement the guy gets hated and put upon. :huhatsch

 

another wank haye bashing thread. now theres a surprise.
i hope he beats the **** out of the klits so you haters can **** off and clog up an other forum. WANKER!!!
