Karma's a ***** David Haye

Haye is trying so hard to be like Ali, even going so far as using his mouth to get a shot at the title, like with Liston. I wonder if Haye comes up with these ideas to have graphic depictions of severed heads, or if he has someone who gives him the ideas. Either way, his lack of respect will obviously bite him in the ass come July 2nd.

his supporters think him winning would be good for boxing. i disagree. If he was respectful and a sportsmen, maybe him winning could cause some excitement in the division and the sport. But he is nothing more than on a level playing field with a radio shock jock, and him winning would be terrible for the sport, sport being the operative word here. Do boxing fans really want a degenerate sociopath representing their sport? Not to worry, this will be Spinks Tyson all over again, except spinks made it through a minute and didnt suffer any permanent brain damage. Wlad will do in the ring what Haye does on t-shirts and on the internet. After they fight, David Haye will be a vegetable and I predict he will never fight again.

 

But i think of boxing as a sport, not as a glorified dog fight. laughing about graphic depictions of decapitations is not sport. its worse than threatening child eating. i love the sport and want it to be a part of my childrens lives, but when i cant allow them to enjoy pre fight build up and hype, it takes a lot away, and returns very little. ali never said he was going to end anyone's life in the ring. i guess haye just isnt intelligent enough to promote the fight without resorting such blatantly distasteful and borderline illegal tactics. Pizza Face, while obviously not the most intimidating of all threats, is still family friendly and not on par with The Hills Have Eyes inbred type psychopaths.

i feel the sport is losing fans to mma, which is marketed to a younger audience, hence, the future fans and dollars. haye is a disgrace, and obviously isnt confident enough in his abilities to fight wlad without such disgusting and alienating tactics. ali smiled at liston to intimidate him.

dont get me wrong though. i am a fan of wlad, no question. but im a bigger fan of the sport. I think it would be great if there was someone that could give him a challenge, a douglas type guy, even beating him in a boxing match, setting up rematches and discussion, thus including boxing in media outlets. but haye? i could see him going so far as to say after he beats both brothers, hes gonna kill their father and anally **** their mother

 

i realize the advantages of having a charismatic champion, but not a sadist / bully. english is nice, but wlad speaks english, and other languages as well. I understand what he says probably better than i do haye, even though my mother is english with a thick accent. but it's the english speaking countries of the world championship, it's suppoed to the World Championship, and wlad actually is more accessible to a larger population than haye would be.

ive wanted every challenger to give either klit a run for the money, to see just how good they are. but this idiot haye, i want him to lose. badly.

 

sure, trash talking is one thing. but would you actually sit there and let your 8 year old son or daughter wear a haye shirt with him decapitatin another human being? theyd be sent home from school. but i bet they can proudly wear a tap out shirt, and talk about rampage jackson or whatever with their teacher. these is the future fans, and if this idiot starts a trend, there will be no future ticket buyers, ppv watching fans in the future.

it's not marketing btw. its borderline illegal, distasteful, and sheds an un-needed negative light on the sport. boxing doesnt need the general public viewing boxing as a sadistic, graphic, murderous sport played by sociopaths. this is one time when bad publicity is not a good thing.

 

honestly, and i dont know what 'smh' means lol, i wouldnt want haye to never fight again. i think hes a talented boxer and has a lot to offer. however, based on his talent and high exposure level, if he cant be even a 'neutral' ambassador of the sport, and role model to the kids (which wlad is, being educated, and a gentleman), he needs to go away. Make boxing positive and save it from losing to mma. we need more rounded fighters at the top, both in and out of the ring. obviously, haye cant do what he says and draws pictures of, but my point is that, young fans wont have the opportunity to watch the fight or spend the dollars on anything pre-fight with such tarantinoesque marketing. would you let your kid watch hostel?

 

ya know what? i agree with you. thats why i compared hayes trash talking to ali getting his first title fight. but haye has obviously gone too far with decapitated heads and showing him taking a life, actually killing someone. do you feel this is the publicity boxing needs? i can already see groups, idiotic groups, yet groups with large voices and many ears nonetheless, calling for boxing bans, and crying if boxing is in the news. do you think cbs news will show a picture of haye holding severed heads on their broadcast? but they would show a pizza face. haye is not above the sport and thus, for the sake of boxing, he needs to use his own head with his marketing. unless he feels he is above boxing, in which case, why would you want someone that doesnt respect the sport of kings representing it?

 

lol, i feel the internet is bad for todays youth. im just saying boxing doesnt need such negativity, with there being so many pulls at the sports fans dollars. haye could get away with saying hes gonna knock wlads block off, but the graphic depiction of it does nothing but give fuel to the groups that would rather see boxing banned. "See, boxers are nothing but murderous psychopaths. I will never let my son box!"

btw, i had a Muhammed Ali "I'm the Greatest" T-Shirt in grade 1 or 2. imagine if i walked into school with two severed heads on my shirt? the teacher would send me for help thinking im a serial killer waiting to happen
