If you were Haye how would you claw back respect?

Haye doesn't want respect, he wants the easiest money out there. Fair enough i suppose what somewhat disappointing .

 

It reminds me a bit of Frank Bruno vs Joe Bugner.

 

I just read this on Ring magazine regarding Haye's selection of his latest pudding victim Gjergjaj 😂 :

'"The two stipulations I requested were that my opponent be unbeaten and taller than me,” said the two-weight world titleholder. “We got a list of unbeaten heavyweights and Gjergjaj was second only to Deontay Wilder because he’s had 29 straight wins and he’s 6-foot-5. There are no big names on his record but he’s never lost and he’s done a lot of sparring with Klitschko, Tyson Fury and Marco Huck. Gjergjaj has been learning behind closed doors, he’s confident and I’m sure he won’t let the big occasion get to him."

Gjerg**** didn't throw a punch ffs and threw himself on the ground from a jab

Haye stated the 'undefeated' angle was important. Main reason being, he didn't want 'fans' being able to compare a beaten fighter with his other conquerer
