    “I know my Ukrainian or German wouldn’t be very good either, but he is definitely the Borat of boxing" - David Haye on Wladimir Klitschko.

    Beats "pizza face" hands down.

    Haye talks a lot of **** but he isn't charismatic at all. He comes off as a grade A *******.

    BTW Borat is British.

    When comparing Haye to the elite trashtalkers like Ali and Mayorga and such, he really is quite tame. Klitschko is worse though.

    At the end of the day, Haye can rile an opponent up, which is all that matters. But when it comes to actually funny stuff? He's not in the high ranks at all, that Valuev press conference thing, whether it was his idea or not, was the worst attempt at comedy ever. Ever.

    Haye is funny to guys who are 16 or 17. He appeals to that crowd.

    "Pizza face" is more refined, more mature. Wlad is the James Joyce of professional boxing.

    I don't know why Klitschko fans have to derive from Klitschko's terrible comments. It's not like Haye fans have Borat avatars. A simple, good ol' glass chin avatar says all you need to say.

    if Haye was fighting Vitaly, i doubt he'd be able to trash talk like that. he'd be scared shitless silent while vitaly push him around in press briefings

    Well, Haye says Wlad is the Borat of boxing, I can't imagine anything worse tnan getting KTFO by Borat. David better to pick his words.

    It's better than the "pizza face" comment in that it actually makes sense... but for unintentional comedy, "pizza face" is golden.

    I wouldn't be surprised.

    Klitschkos dominated the division for 6 years straight (no one came even close to challenging them in 6 years that is).

    Germans love them. Soviets LOVE them. Americans hate them because they are not black. Brits hate them because they are not british.

    Solution? Find a black brit with a big mouth (nothing americans and brits like more than throwing insults from a safe distance), hype him up, get him to take a belt off a paper champ (Valuev) since WBA didn't give Wlad the belt when he beat their legitimate champ. Ask Haye to talk a lot of **** and pull out of contracts a few times to hype the fight even more.
    Sell out the fight to 160 countries. Make millions.

    Genius, truly genius.

    Haye's got nothing on Mayorga.
