    So Haye will defend the WBA title at the M.E.N arena against april, when was the last time a heavyweight title fight was fought in the UK, I know williams fought Klitschko but not in the UK. Can any1 think of the last clash to take place in the UK.... Was it Lewis vs. Botha in 2000 ??

    Yeah, Lewis v Botha. It was a good Lewis performance. Hard to believe that was ten years ago.
