    ok so are you saying that his fight with enzo maccarinelli was not a unification bout?
    the ring magazine recognised it as so as did the boxing press. please feel free to check

    Did he have the IBF belt?

    No.

    Was he undisputed?

    No.

    Was he unified?

    Yes.

    Was he the lineal champion?

    Yes.

    Unified, undisputed and lineal are all different things but the last two tend to be connected. And the WBO is the lesser of the four belts.

    Listen fella - regardless of how well you "know boxing"

    You cant come on here and talk **** without being pulled up on it.

    The fact is - in the main stream media - and when Haye talks - he is referred to as the Undisputed Crusirerweight Champion.

    So maybe thats where you got you conclusion from.

    But we here on the forum - know better - cos boxing is a subject we obvioulsy look at deeper than the casual main stream media.

    Haye was never undisputed - WBO belt is a paper belt - IBF title he never won.

    He claimed he wanted to emulate what Holyfield did at Crusierweight.

    He didnt.

    Holyfield won WBC / WBA / IBF

    Haye won WBC / WBA / WBO

    All belts are bogus these days.

    But to say the WBO is the final piece in the Unidpsuted jigsaw and the IBF Champ is worhtless is garbage fella.

    if you are going to post a long reply maybe research your claims i had initially stated that in my opinion due to different reasons the wbo had become more prestigious than the ibf belt. my main point being that the ibf in recent years stripped its no1 champ and there rankings are biased and obviously based on the usba rankings. they have us / us trained fighters as there top dogs in hw this is not a true reflection of the hw division. is it? that was my inital point nothing to do with haye i then went on to say that haye unified the division. 2 seperate statements i made based on my opinion.

    now these were the inital topics up for dispute. so please stop being childish and my opinion was questioned i was not speaking s*ite as you have done over the course of your most recent posts.

    In your opinion?

    He did acording to the boxing press and the ring magazine. i am sure they have more weight to the claims of an internet poster such as you or i.

    intead of using your word as gospel provide some references to support your claim otherwise recognise that it is just an opionion that differs from mine

    So your one of these mugs who just blindly believe what the media tell you without doing your own research :patsch

    I got some double glazing you might be interested in buying.....:lol::lol::lol:


    The history boxing since all these titles have come about is WBC / WBA / IBF were the early ones at the beginning.

    Tyson
    Holyfield
    these guys unfied these titles as the undisputed

    The WBO was a low rent title that came along after that - fighters like Tyson and Roy Jones and Lennox Lewis have never even bothered fighting for a WBO title their whole career - because it has no signifcance to them - they know its a shitty belt for the lower ranked fighters to fight over.

    you gate crash this forum - throwing insults.

    but your just a newbie.

    you should learn that the posters like GazOC and Claypole are the true backbone of this forum.

    GazOC in particular has seen off many a newbie before coming on here giving it the big I AM.

    lol are you a crackhead by any chance?
    you are getting silly. i used references to form an opinion i also watched fights listen to other opinions. the ring magazine is a respected voice as are many boxing writters. who am i meant to listen to you?

    ill leave it at that :hi:

    Why are you doing the ill get my big brother to bash you routine? are you 5?

    I do not need to learn from anyone i respect people based on there own merits the backbone of a community is its ability to accept an opinion without being rash and unreasonable. i did not throw insults till i was attacked. read my posts if you wish otherwise stop making a man hole out of a molehole.
    also giving what big? an opinion you disagree with? defending myself against insults and accusations of talking shite? you are being childish? this is a forum where opinions are meant to be valid just because i am newer doesnt mean my opinion has less weight.

    you know what they say about people who live in glass houses

    side note
    check my join date newbie status based on posts not time on forum reading and enjoying articles. You are newer than me.

    Nice jumping to conlusions there. Next time, ask a person what they think, don't tell them.
