    I'm a HUGE David Haye fan, and this will make him a star should it come through, no doubt about it.

    WAR HAYEMAKER!

        Those boxers have yet to either step up competition levels or failed when they stepped up. Thats all. I could care less about popularity. Joe needs to prove himself and Witter, he had his chance years ago and did nothing to redeem himself. Haye I do like though.

              how many heavies out there now that are NOT tomato cans? a few of them had belts not too long ago.

              haye has the skills and size to be a good heavy. it all rests on his chin how good he can be.

                I think that he's proven himself to be one of the best 5 fighters in the world.

                Redeem himself? It's not like he's a murderer or something. He's someone who, despite being inexperienced at the time, fought Judah at short notice and wasn't quite good enough on the night. He's achieved a lot since then.

                What more would you have him do? He's won the WBC title, KO'd Vivian Harris, has constantly tried to get a fight with Hatton, arranged a fight in America with D Hopkins (who pulled out) and is defending against an unbeaten American prospect soon.

                  Really smart move from Haye if he signs. I really hope he can make it at heavy.

                    Thomas Hearns' chin wasn't the greatest, and he made it pretty far. Roy Jones Jr's chin isn't granite and some consider him the greatest LHW ever. Haye's quick enough to avoid most bombs from HWs and not having to drop weight might help his chin a bit. Time will tell.

                      I haven't seen too much of him but if GBP is involved there's a reason...
