1. He is trying to hype a fight because he cant do it on talent or natural charisma alone. 2. He is a bit of a dick
He says boxing needs a HW champ like Tyson, Holyfield etc...But win or lose Haye is retiring anyway so he can **** off with those kind of statements.
He's selling the fight. Papers need quotes. He may, or may not, also be a bit of a twat....I don't know him well enough to say.
He's trying to sell the fight. Thing is the nationalistic aspect alone is enough to sell it, he seems to be turning people against him with the trash talking if the backlash from the gang **** comment is anything to go by
just listen to haye when he was unknown - articulate and didnt have a bad word to say about anybody. hes just trash talking keeping his name out in the papers its advertising nothing more
I really don't see how he's being any more of a twat than Wladimir Klitschko. 'My brother will deal with your post traumatic stress'? Come the **** on... I see where he's coming from. He's not content to take that opponent role that most of Wlad's opponents take. Generally I'm not a massive fan of trying to get a 'mental edge' in press conferences etc but in this case its not a bad idea. Wlad is mentally a bit suspect and has had too many opponents just turning up not arsed.
