Is Haye going to Get Credit where it is due?

[NeXt In Line]

Yeah people seriously have to take into account the fact that David Haye is not a normal Cruiserweight. The guy is almost like a statue of pure muscle and to lose all that weight, all the time gives him almost no energy, but he's never complained about it, he's never used it as an excuse, he's simply said that it's why he cant fight at Cruiser anymore.

He said in that interview BPP posted "We said the weight was fine ti play mind games with Mormeck, but I was getting leg cramps during warm-ups and when I got up in the 4th my legs were completely shot." I mean the guy's 6'3" hes not a natural Cruiserweight, and once he settles into his frame at Heavy he'll probably be much more comfortable.

He shouldn't risk fighting at cruiser weight anymore if the situation is that bad. It looked to me as if the knockdown was a shot to the side of the head that threw of his balance, and he decided to go down to avoid further damage, it can happen to anyone. but if he is fighting at a weight that causes to much stress to his body he may be vulnerable and need to move up. I would love to see him fight Bell, even if they both move up to heavy weight, and the winner would probably get a crack at a good established heavyweight next, maybe even for a title.

Here, here. Well said.

He went to the Cruiserweight kings own back yard and knocked him out! Something his fellow Brits don't seem like they want to do and instead they stay in the comfort of there own areas i.e Manchester, Cardiff and wait until the money's right to jump on a plane to go and fight abroad late in there boxing careers.

Any questions?

spot on, most of the brits wont leave there own back yard to fight, they wait to get a vacant title shot, frank the wank gets a **** fighter who has no chance then hey presto warren has another WBO champ, just wait and see Alex Arther will get a vacent title shot for the WBO and it will be in Scotland against a complete tosser, with a remach clause in the unlikly event he looses, no clause for the other guy fighter and handpicked judges who no intention of scoring the fight fairly, (britain is now the hardest place to get a fair decision).
Well done Haye, lucky but he still did it, credit where it is due.
