    Sure, in the grand scheme of HW boxing it's no great shakes, but relative to how things have been, It's shaping up quite nicely I'd say:

    Haye
    Chisora
    Price
    Fury

    :hey

    When Haye decided to move up to heavyweight I had high hopes that it would shake up the division....but he simply descended to the level of the others, now he is fighting with a license from Luxembourg against a guy who lost to Tyson Fury. A bout arranged over a flying glass bottle, camera tripod and threats to burn and physically shoot the other.

    At the end of the day it's a interesting competitive match up to be fair.

    If we do wish to moralise, some of the greatest heavyweights ever don't come out looking too clean. Compared to some of the unsavoury stuff that has gone on in the past in the HW division (all divisions) the Haye/Chisora incident doesn't even register.

    Ya that guy is a genetic freak for a 21 year old.

    He got a very high ceiling. And his youth is the biggest factor.

    I mean he literally got 8-9 years to develop.

    I will prefer he hit his prime much faster though so he can fight

    Wlad or Vitali in the next 3-5 years.

    Great post. Eastern Euro vs Britian. I 100% agree.

    I disagree about the USA.. I think it's over

    you were a Brittard and Americantard on the scene

    you yourself admit you were wladowns. You do realize people can just go check your stupid ass threads right?


    You became a fake 'Ukrainian' after Ricky Hatton and Kelly Pavlik lost,

    at least Nosber is very consistent and deliver intelligence.

    at least King Khan sticks with his failed boxers

    You on the other hand is a band wagoner .. you are pathetic

    Also I think you were a huge Bute fan too no?

    It's the best it's been for some time. The Heavy division might be on fire in the next few years.

    I'm not actually bothered about the theatrics.
    It just disappoints me that someone so technically inept and bereft of athleticism is representing the UK in the premiere division of what is meant to be one of the most demanding sports in the world.
    You know whom I'm talking about.

    If you're talking about the Chisora who turned up against Fury, I agree, however, I'd say he's looked in fairly good shape since then.
