French heavyweight Jean-Marc "The Marksman" Mormeck (35-4, 22 KO), fresh from a decision win over veteran Fres Oquendo, demanded a revenge bout with current WBA heavyweight champion David Haye of England. Mormeck knocked Haye down in the fourth round of their 2007 clash. Haye went on to stop him in the seventh and won Mormeck's cruiserweight titles.
"In the first quarter of 2011, I want David Haye. I want to get my revenge. My goal is to get a championship at heavyweight. David Haye is the fight I want most," Mormeck said to Traveste.
Mormeck said the win over Oquendo was very tough. Many believe Oquendo was the clear winner.
"It was difficult, but I did not get hurt and it went very well. I still have a lot of work to do. I tried to be as accurate as possible. He was not easy to hit. With Maddalone, I proved that I could step into the ring with a heavyweight and here I showed that I can take a risk against an experienced guy," Mormeck said.
Mormeck says a big surprise will be announced soon. An opponent with a big name is going to be revealed.
"I'll have a big surprise to announce soon. Two even. Two really prestigious opponents. We already agreed but first we have to sign the contract," Mormeck said.
