    Haye in stubble trouble

    DAVID HAYE will be hanging his chin out when he faces Enzo Maccarinelli at the O2 Arena in London tomorrow night.


    The WBC and WBA cruiserweight champ has been told he must shave off his beard to give WBO title holder Maccarinelli a chance.


    Haye’s stubble would be against Boxing Board of Control rules.


    Fight promoter Frank Warren was furious as Haye missed a midday press call yesterday.


    Warren blasted: “Haye has grown a big bushy beard. I’ll insist the Board orders Haye to climb into the ring clean-shaven.”


    Haye arrived at the O2 after Warren’s team had left, saying he was due at 2pm. And the time of the weigh-in today is in dispute too.


    Haye said: “I was expecting all sorts of tricks.”


    Warren stormed: “I am paying Haye an absolute fortune. He has turned around and basically said ‘screw you’.”

    Warren's an idiot. Haye will give me an erection whether he shaves or not.

      All the tricks are coming from Enzos camp and Warren in paticular. Haye although confident has quietly got on with it and did attend the presser at the original time of 2:30pm.

        Warren is really trying to stack the deck against Haye, the press conference time, the weigh in time are both supposed to throw Haye off.

          It's not the first time a fighter has been asked to shave his beard. Lacy had to unearth a mach3 before the Calzaghe fight I believe.

            Enzo Calzaghe said to him at the weigh in "we want to see your chin when we hit you on it". He shaved, and the rest is history....

              I hope Haye shaves, struggled to make weight and gets fined for violating the contract, and STILL whoops Enzo.

              Frank Warren should die in a hole, with AIDS.
