he is another one of the new breed of frauds who get a pass for being frauds in the name of fight promotion. his circus act is enabled by fans who are more than happy to eat the excrement that is spoon fed to them.
pretty much what this dickhead said. haye's complete and utter garbage. he should be in a circus. he'd be the star clown.
Good boxer with some decent offensive and ambush skills combined with superb athleticism. A bit of a so-so HW resume, good win over Valuev and a decent one over Chisora. Very good CW resume where he unified 3 of the 4 major belts, also with a couple of Ws over the top CWs at the time. Even with his weak (HW)resume, he could probably beat all guys in the HW division not named Klitschko, he is just not burning enough for the sport to build up a resume @HW it seems, he is content with fighting 1-2 times per year..
to be honest, haye's a very good boxer. he's very good. but judging by the way he talks about himself, you'd think he was god's gift to boxing. he said that vitali didnt have a signature fight and that he could provide that. he said that after losing to wladimir. i don't know what he thinks he's accomplished in the hw division but it's certainly not reflected in his record. the only time he stepped up to the plate on the big stage, he struck out. and on top of that he showed us his toe. he's pulled out of more than one fight if i'm not mistaken and he just comes across as an idiot. the fiasco with chisora at the press conference didn't help either.
I separate his career into two parts. His heavyweight career is a joke. He's talked huge and done little of note. The fight with Wlad was a low point in boxing history. However, he was a very good fighter at the lower weights. He accomplished far too much to be considered a fraud overall. In short, I'm tired of his act and wish he would go away.
Sure, Haye is a **** and he has a relatively weak HW resume, considering that he is regarded as a top fighter in the division. But he is still a dangerous and explosive puncher with a good sense of timing and accuracy. He was also one of the best CWs in the world at a time.
Well in sweden we have a saying that goes "Kärt barn har många namn" Translates to A Dear child has many names, meaning there's alot to be said about David but one thing is for sure, We like to follow him.
David Haye is a salesman who conned the UK boxing fans, and has not fulfilled his promises. Haye said that he would not fight past his 31st birthday. What ever happened to that promise?
Haye is a businessman. He doesn't give a rat's ass about the sport nor the fans. Neither should he. What do we give fighters once they are shot or get knocked out? We **** on them. Haye turns the tables. He pisses on us. Good for him, I wish him the very best.
