Wolfey

I know he hasn't fought in a year, but has he officially retire or is he hurt? Does anyone knows his status.

... when haye gets hit by the first three incoming jabs. the way david fights is exciting. his stance reminds me of roy jones in his prime. very confident,hands as low as can be. jumping explosively in. but, and this is my point,this is a fighting style that does work when your opponent is respecting you.it gets very dangerous if this is not the case. i doubt haye has a plan.

was a bit of a letdown to be honest. Got there at 3pm dead on and it was complete and utter chaos with no possible chance of seeing floyd due to this tiny area outside the gym being surrounded by about 750 people including those standing on walls on every possible side of the road and even the bridge up top was completely jam packed with people wanting to get a look. By the time floyd entered the gym the masses started queueing on the door and it became an absoloute brawl to get inside. Several times over i found myself being pushed and shoved against our will and it was becoming completely ridiculous as people were trying every possible way to get to the front of this very tiny doorway. By 3.45pm we were just about to hightail it out of there when after a few carefully planned phonecalls we managed to get in touch with a mate who works at TKO (rival gym in west ham) and he instructed us to meet him at the back entrance which we did. Couldnt help but feel sorry for all those who turned up before us and were still out the front queueing to get in but they didnt end up missing a hell of a lot inside. Once we got into a gym with no less than 70-80 people crowded around the room we had to make do with peaking through to see floyd on the pads and that was indeed the highlight of the workout as it peetered out once we got there to floyd working the bags and at that point because of the temperature inside the gym we decided it wasnt worth waiting another hour odd to get pictures signed. Pros - Great publicity for a really hardworking gym that as brought through more boxers than any other gym in britain and has trained the very best. Seeing the kids right at the front was great to see. Canning Town is very much a working class area and there isnt a hell of a lot of money about. Seeing the worlds greatest sportstar do what his best at will stick with them for years to come Cons - The whole thing just wasnt organised properly at all. There was no barriers, no security and no queues which would of ensured safety for all involved. One fella ended up passing out amongst the chaos and had to be taken back inside and can only hope he is ok. Team Mayweather were flogging memorabilia such as posters and foam hands and many people bought them under the pretense they`d be able to get them signed. Ive heard that a few hardcores stayed till about 6 when floyd finally exited and the man was humble enough to sign a few but for the other hundreds that had to be somewhere it was not fair. Peacock, Sky sports and steve bunce led everybody to believe at some point they would get to see floyd workout via a rotation policy that allowed 40 in 40 out every 15minutes or so. Can assure you that never happened and those that were lucky enough to get in got to watch the whole 2hours while those unfortunate enough not to have beat the queues or had friends in the know how had to spend 3hours outside under complete false pretences.
