    Thing I find funny with Haye.

    He's had 25 fights, and in those 25 fights, he's unified Cruiser, facing the very very best there. Beaten a legit heavyweight world champion, that the K brothers never wanted anything to do with.

    Now he's fighting the most dominant heavyweight of his era, in Germany, where Wlad can get a home town decision, potentially, where he's massively undersized, and Wlad has every conceivable advantage........

    And you have fans questioning his balls, or his career!?

    There aren't many fighters in the history of boxing, who've done as much as Haye in their first 25 fights

    I know a hell of a lot of people in the UK that do not like Haye or Hamed, or Khan for the same reasons, being cocky and arrogant. I don't like the idea of generalizing entire nations of people. It just doesn't work like that.

    And Christ Eubank was HATED! People disliked his attitude and his snobby way of talking, he was British, moved to New York and was in a gang, and then came back to the UK and started talking like that, Eubank only started getting liked at the end of his career, when he was losing but still trying.

    That's pretty stupid.

    He makes huge amounts of money from European TV.

    You're clueless.

    Exactly. It doesn't really make any sense why people call him a coward and a ducker.

    "I fight good guys and believe it or not, in boxing for a few years, people have tried to duck each other, especially when they break on the scene," Haye told a reporter earlier this year. "They have one big fight, then three or four chumps, and then another big fight to keep the fans happy. I say forget them chumps, let me just have all big fights. I've always said I'll be out of boxing by the age of 31, so I've got around three years to really cram in all these fights. I've got a lot of fights and a lot of action to dish out, a lot of big fights and entertaining nights to give to the fans and I don't have a lot of time to be fighting chumps and little gimmes."

    "I'm a boxing fan first and whenever I'm looking for an opponent, I think who can I fight that the fans want me to fight; who would I want me to fight?" said Haye. "And it's always guys who are strong and big punchers. If I was a David Haye fan, I wouldn't want to see me fighting bums who I know I can knock out. I want to be in there with guys you have to worry about. I know I'm the best fighter in the world, so I don't have to duck or dodge anybody."

    Breaks a contractual agreement with Wlad by faking injury.

    Breaks verbal agreement with Vitali.

    What a load of rubbish. Plenty of British people hate Haye. And it's nothing to do with the fact he's black, but keep on thinking everyone hates and is against black people. :roll: Whitie always keeping the brothers down. Pathetic people still think like that.

    Haye's been playing the game and selling the fight

    He is good for the face of HW boxing at the moment

    I don't really understand how people hate any boxers

    I think people say things more out of the fact they are arguing with eachother, so put whichever boxers the other user is supporting down

    Just banter really

    Most people would probably try to get Haye /Klitschko's autograph if the chance arose

    You're pretty stupid. The only TV money he gets is Sky UK, Setanta before that (also UK). Tell us the European channels that he gets revenue from.

    Sorry, but Wlad didn't stalk Chisora for two years telling the whole world how much he wants to fight him. Totally inapropriate comparison, I'm surprised you aren't getting that.

    What the **** does that matter? Boy, is that a flattering nickname you got there... Haye was even smaller than Valuev and had even less experience, but he didn't back out of fighting him, did he? No, he ran away from a Klit to fight him. And no, it wasn't because of Setanta bankruptcy, so what are you gonna bring up next, let's hear it.

    I'm totally hyped for the fight, like finally!
    But the question was "Why do you hate Haye", I gave my answer, and I don't ****ing care if you don't like it, sorry.

    Haye fought Valuev to get himself a belt and have more negoatiating power against the Klits, which has worked now he's getting 50/50 with no rematch clauses and he also pissed of the Klits in the process, bonus :lol:

    Pretty simple really.

    And most importantly I'm sure you'll agree, is putting his name to an iPhone app that is a rip-off for the fans......

    Actually I don't hate Haye, not his biggest fan, have even gone off him a bit over the last couple of years, but this is the sort of person you want in the game to get the sport back in the papers, get more people interested in boxing etc.

    He did well at cruiser, but has failed to deliver at heavy.

    What's more he's been way too mouthy and the Fraudley incident was unforgivable.
