David Haye Vacates WBC Cruiserweight Title

[bluemax]

Do your research!

David Haye has campaigned at heavyweight, and he knocked the guy down 3 or 4 times in the first round, which led to a 1st round knockout.

WOOPS!! I meant to say a Real LEGITIMATE heavyweight! Not some tomato can!! Haye is a media generated fighter who in 21 fights against mostly unknown opposition doesn't deserve a shot at the Heavyweight title without campaigning and beating REAL quality heavyweights. I'd like to see him beat even a ESPN quality heavyweight.

That's correct, Bonin was just a tomato can. It will be interesting to see how Haye does against a top 50 heavyweight.

Cant wait to see him at heavyweight again hopefully he will fight better opposition than tomasz bonin tho .

David Haye, the undefeated sensation of the cruiserweight division, has communicated to the WBC his plans for his future in boxing in a beautiful letter written to the WBC President Jose Sulaiman. [details]

What a bunch of crap. I love this stuff:
"in a beautiful letter written"

This is boxing. Act like a man. Don't try to describe every turd dropping on the pavement as the thunderous coming of Thor or some such crap.

Where did I say he was a worthy challenger?

I just pointed out he has already fought at heavyweight and beat the guy convincingly.

Certanily a start compared to the bums Wlad has fought recently.

You're absolutely right. Tomasz Bonin >>>>>> Sultan Ibragimov + Lamon Brewster + Calvin Brock + Chris Byrd + Sam Peter.

FYI even Ray Austin, who Wlad beat single handedly is a better fighter than Bonin.

I guess Haye is vacating his WBA and WBO belt as well, very soon, after this, right?

So, as the CW champ, what position will it grant him at HW rankings? top 2, top 5, top 10? I think it has to be at least top 5.

[duffgun]

he will probably be ranked in the top 10 if he wins his next fight or for a bit more money maybe top 3

"in a beautiful letter written"

Strong use of the word undefeated in the article. He has lost once.
