interesting...because all my friends from Europe (they arn't big boxing fans) know who the guy is!!!! Living only in Britain again?:-(
pick a European country. I have friends from all over Europe :good Your point is **** anyway, ppv and boxing not being on free to air tv has killed it. The majority of people never watch any boxing and don't give a hoot about it. Think about the Haye/Wlad fight, only a small minority of Brits will even watch it!!!! how many ppv you think they are gonna get? If it was on bbc, atleast half the population would watch it!!!!!!!! that's the way it was in the old days and I don't even like sky. bbc is way better, I've never liked sky, besides the point but.....
He fought one-handed due to an injury in Valuev fight and he sparked Audley in 3 rounds. Watch some of his other fights if you think he fights cautiously, because that's probably the stupidest thing I've read on a boxing forum (and I've not been short on idiotic material)
Italy and Spain I have lots of friends in one and family in the other, and these are guys interested in sport and the dont have a clue who the Klitschckos are It should be said they dont know who thhe **** haye is either
There are over 60 million people in the U .K so you reckon how many are gonna watch? 1 million max? That's one in 60 people, that means the vast majority of people will not watch the fight. Hell I don't even have sky, they are rip off pirates, I'll be in Germany watching the fight !!!! edit- my calculations are wrong. More peolple will watch it, friends, family etc watching the fight. but, it will still be the minority.
At what point did I say the world revolves around our Island? atsch The fact posters around the world are talking about this fight, writers around the world talking about the fight and to some it all up - casual boxing fans are interested in seeing this fight is reason enough to suggest Haye is good for the heavyweight division AND boxing. I take it you're not interested in this fight then no? You would rather see Wlad face another European bum or an overweight american pizza boy who stumbled into a gym and got a title shot? Haye is what the division needs like it or not - I for one hope he doesn't retire at 31 and cleans up the division after he dismisses both the sisters back to the Ukraine on a stretcher.
Wlad faces top ten contender again and again!:deal If you want me to rip Haye's record to shreads I will!!!! I can't be arsed with your crap, blah blah blah. Come July 2nd haye will lose his wba belt and then retire. beautiful.
Wrong again, Jack. Why do you keep repeating half-truths and outright lies. HBO said they wouldn't show any HW fights unless it was between any of these four men "Wlad, Vitali, Haye, Adamek." That's exactly what they said. Is that so hard to decipher for you? HBO will show Vitali vs. Adamek.
I am just excited to see this fight. These forums show anyones resume can be pulled apart. Resume's will be not be on anyones mind when its just the 2 of them in the ring waiting for the opening bell on July 2nd....I can't wait!!!
You can't be 'arsed' because you know you have no where to go in this argument. I never criticised Wlad personally for beating bums and fat slobs, my whole argument was that finally there is a fighter who is bringing excitement back into the division with real potential and people should applaud that.
