Woods has a slim chance, but if he fights the same way as he fought against Tarver, he will be knocked out. Tavoris is a strong puncher.
Woods was absolutly terrible that night. He won't show up looking that bad again.
Still, even if the best Woods shows up i'll be taking Cloud to pull it off.
Setanta is bigger than ITV for boxing. -
Disagree.
ITV's viewing figures for big fights dwarf Setanta's.
Setanta is certainly the better channel when it comes to boxing but for David Haye to become a megastar he needs people to tune in to watch his fights.
Im not saying he can't become a household name fighting on Setanta, but it would be much easier for him if he was fighting on ITV, or even SKY Sports.
Is there only me that thinks Izzy is being to brave for his own good here?
The man has been in far too many wars that will certainly take there toll in the long run, if they have not already.
I was thinking he may announce his retirement today.
Can you back that claim up?
Not to hand no but im sure i could find them if i looked.
Do you really need them though? I would of thought it was obvious considering everybody in the uk that has a t.v has ITV, and as close as December last year Setanta had just over 2,000,000 subscribers. They are currently losing people and are in serious financial trouble too.
When I was talking about Setanta being bigger than ITV for boxing, it wasn't to do with figures.
But the amount of fights they offer.
ITV don't have anything like Bunce's boxing hour. Are ITV showing the ABA championships tomorrow night?
If Setanta goes down, British boxing takes a big hit.
Totally agree with everything in this post.
My point was that David Haye will not get the exposure from Setanta that he will get from ITV, and to a lesser extent, Sky Sports.
If no one find out. I would load up my gloves and take steriods as well. I would not care about the other person at all. Life is all about money. Being a millionaire just doesn't happen everyday. I would do anything to take my chance.
Horrible post.
setanta are throwing 100s of promos of him out there! if he wins against wlad he is going to be a mega star there.
it's crazy, he might be mike tyson of britain.
He would be a much bigger star if he was fighting on SKY Sports or ITV.
Setanta is a very small sports network when you put it against them two.
Its only die hard boxing fans and a few casual fans who even know who he is. He is lightyears away from being a household name at the minute which is sad, because now Calzaghe has retired and Hatton is on his way out, he is our best fighter by far.
No, he saw his doctors on Wednesday, then went on Bunce's show Thursday and said he wanted to fight Wlad on July 11.
But Wlad's team were wise enough to be sure they checked with the doctors before rescheduling, and so today they were told Haye would not be ready until July 25 at the earliest.
He was still in Cyprus on Wednesday and he wasn't on Bunce's show on Thursday either.
It was Adam Booth who was on Buncey's show and Haye didn't get seen by the Doctor until he was back in the UK, which means it was Friday at the earliest.
Berto ain't got the best chin, but he's shown heart when he's been hurt. And Urango likely won't have the pop to get him in serious trouble.
Urango certainly has the pop, its just a case wether he can catch him flush or not, and i don't think he can.
Im going with Berto in an easy UD.
