Don't compare Manny to Haye please, even if you're not a Manny fan. Anyone can see, regardless of whether he can beat Mayweather/Mosley at Welterweight, that former the former flyweight beltholder Pacman is one of the greatest lower weight fighters ever. On the other hand, Haye has proven nothing. When was the last flyweight champion to hold a Welterweight belt?
Chambers shouldn`t have had the US flag flying at the pre fight introductions but the white flag indicating that he`d already surrendered.
If you are American heavyweight you are automatically not a bum, apparently. You are automatically upgraded from D- to B+ purely because you hail from the greatest country on earth ect ect.
What did he do against Valuev? Throwing 12 punches a round seems like survival mode to me. Look, Haye is a good fighter, but he hasn't been convincing at heavy. Chagaev looked far more impressive against Valuev, and Haye looked off balance and uncoordinated versus Barrett. He might have what it takes to beat the Brothers Klitschko, but as of right now I'd install them as favorites. As is, before Wladimir decapitated Chambers I thought he'd beat Haye.
Why do people ignore the fact that he bust his hand and has pretty much never fought like that before? People who fight in survival mode don't generally end up going on to win titles.
And the fact he had Valuev wobbling despite fighting almost the whole fight 1 handed and beat him away from home in a notoriously corrupt judging country.
And while David was busy calling them out, Eddie fought Sam Peter and Dimitrenko, seriously if anyone should be catching flack it is the man from the UK, not the American who earned his shot.
Gatti busted his hand in a number of fights and let his hands go. Floyd broke his hand against Carlos Hernandez and then scored the KO with the same hand he broke. Arthur Abraham fought eight rounds and engaged on occasion with a jaw broken in two places. Don't give me this broken hand nonsense. If he did break his hand he certainly still could have thrown more than 12 punches a round.
Don't worry mate, I don't actually want to know where you're from. :smooch You said you liked Wlad's personality, so I JOKED with you that you might be from countries where he is appreciated, that's all. To be completely honest with you, I really don't have a problem with the Klits......it's not their fault that the division is full of bums, and if they want to work their way through everybody in a fairly robotic style that's their right. But the whole thing is rather boring for the majority of boxing fans.
In that video that someone posted above it sure looks like Haye has a broken hand. Its hecka swollen. He said thats what happens when you punch a head like a brick wall. But the thing is he punched him a couple of times only to the head. So his hands might be a little fragile
