    Writing an article on Haye, and how Londoners can get involved in the boxing game - just went and interviewed Haye's old amateur trainer Mick Carney who was great, and I've got quotes from Bunce who was also great - can anyone offer some advice on where to go next? I'm working on a very tight deadline so haven't got much time, and the ABA aren't picking up their phones which is annoying.

    Any pro's/ex pro's can give advice and a few quotes would help, if not any advice would do!

    Cheers guys.

    For what it is worth, Haye is the first Brit ever to reach a world amateur championship final.

    would be worth trying to speak to Terry Edwards who was in charge of the GB team which Haye was on. Was his decision to take Courtney Fry to the Olympics instead of him.

    Be intresting to hear where he rates Haye compared to all the other fighters he has worked with.
