Wladimir Klitschko vs. David Haye: a real-life battle of good vs. evil

[The Big Dunn]

Without Haye no one in AMerica would give a damn about this fight. Wlad is like LArry Holmes, great fighter but people would rather watch the opponent.

the casualfan in america don't even know who the hell david haye is.

[Weebler I]

england never wins in big sporting events . never. remember that

and the Ukraine does?

It's not true anyway, and Haye is boxing for the UK not just England.

Then why have none of Haye's previous fights been on HBO?

[Gojira]

Looks like the pressure is starting to set in!

Seriously though, Tunney would make a good politician.

[gauze]

lol what the hell

haye is the good one, the klits have constantly kept everything in their home town, getting their refs, judges and offering crappy contracts

haye is here to save the division and boxing itself, haye must not fail, boxing is depending on him

yeah man whats with all these crooked scorecards in klitschko fights? its disgraceful

The casual fan knows more about Haye then the last 5 or 6 guys Wlad has faced other than Sam Peter. Haye has at least talked **** and faked an injury to make news.

[The Big Dunn]

Then why have none of Haye's previous fights been on HBO?

Obviously Haye talking isht for 2 yrs and the fake injury thing has made this fight more attractive.

true.. i mean england won the world cup... when was it the last time?

Been a while since we won a world cup in football but then again our grass roots system just isn't working.

But with regards to the original quote, we won the world cup in rugby which is huge (a proper world cup unlike world series which is just usa lol) and england won the ashes.

Also if you are talking about boxing, lennox lewis was the undisputed for us...yeah he was born in canada but i'd bet any country would take that beast if he wanted to represent them and if he had been born in those countries (i.e legal).

All in all, not bad for a small country.

Yes haye did get away with betting on himself. That was naughty of him. But what is worse he bet on round three. Why didnt he just bet on round one, so he didnt have to go two rounds of not throwing punches.
