    Likewise, I don't understand the hate on Haye.

    The guy has solid boxing skills, quick for his size, has dinamite on both fists, and has an exciting style.

    Monte Barrett, while I agree was not a real HW test, was supposed 'to bring David Haye back to the cruiserweights'. But, it did highlight, once again, his quickness and those blurring Hayemakers.

    Bring on the Klitschko brothers!

      Boxing is a business, the Heavyweight division lacks depth and the players to produce high profile matchups. Haye understands that and understands that he has an opportunity to position himself for a very big payday and a chance to be the HW champion of the world. But lets get real Haye has more than a suspect chin, never faced a big quality heavyweight like either of the Klitschkos and instead of fighting the one brother he may actaully have a chance to KO he chooses Vitali who has shown a very good set of whiskers. Id say he has little chance at winning but it should make for a high profile fight for boxing. I think deep down he realizes this and is making a smart play for big money.

      On the other hand he is a guy with a lot of swagger and maybe he really thinks he can and will beat both brothers and take over the division.
      No way man. There's plenty of other guys out there that could have given Haye a huge payday. Wladmir for example. Even if you look at hs cruiserweight record. look at the fights he took last year. He went to Paris to fight Mormeck, one of Don King's fighters.

      He definitely took the fight to establish himself as the best heavyweight. And for that reason the man deserves respect.

        The guy isnt my cup of tea even though he is a brit but i respect the hell out of him, He took him just 22 fights to become the Man at cruiserweight, He could have fought bums in his 22 fight and start stepping up when his 40-0 but he did things the hard way and you have to respect that as a fight fan.

          Yeah I agree dude is alright not big fan of his. Win or lose against either Klitscko, he should have exciting matches in the future against Chagaev, Arreola, Haye, Thompson, Peters, Povetkin, and Dimitrenko.

            David Haye is a complete willyhead. Yeah sure other fighters have had
            big ego, but with good reason. Haye is no where near as good as he
            claims to be. If he really thinks he can make Vitali looks "******" has
            he puts it. He is going to be humiliated beyond words. David Haye
            thinks he's the next Lennox, but he is no where near and never will
            be on that level. He needs to be brought down a peg or two.
            Vitali is going smash that R. Kelly lookalike willy head right back down
            to the division he belongs in.

            Haye is lucky to even have his name
            mentioned in the same sentence as The Klits.

              That's be an interesting fight. Only on Playstation though.

                TBH im a fan of Haye, because he is exciting not, because i think he will be a great fighter, because i dont think he will be a great fighter. Haye's style is horrible if im honest, but he has mad power and a questionable chin and he likes to fight and thats what makes me a fan of his more than anything.

                  Haye has the skill to beat the Klitschko sisters, the question is does he have the will?

                    He came back from a devastating loss to become undisputed champ at Cruiserweight in under 22 fights.

                    He goes up to HW and wants to fight the best.

                    He admits his strengths and weaknesses.

                    Yep, he's an arsehole!

                      What dont kill you makes you stronger

                      Haye has come back swinging like a true champ since then too.
