David Haye Plans To Spar With MMA Fighters For Valuev

[Joe2608]

If Team haye was inept then how did they get a world title shot, while guys like chambers and povetkin cant get a good fight for ****?

If you did your research, in Chambers last fight he fought a highly rated Dimitrenko (who before Chambers fight was touted as one of the favourites to beat Wlad along with Povetkin) and is now next in line for a shot at the WBO against Wlad. How they aren't good fights i don't know.

Secondly, Povetkin is the IBF mandatory for Wlad. The fight was originally schedueled for September but something happened on Povetkin's end and now the fight looks like it will be nearer the end of the year. So he has a title shot too.

As a final point, Chambers and Povetkin have fought each other before, which was also a good fight.

So they both have had good fights and now have title shots ahead of them, stop trying to discredit Haye in every thread when you don't know what you're talking about.

This is probably one big joke by Haye to get people talking about him, he's probably having a good laugh reading these posts.

This is a press release, it isn't a joke. The only people laughing are the people laughing at ****** David Haye who has managed to ruin his career in the span of 1 year.

Haye is training with MMA fighters because of they way they lean on their opponents. Much like Valuev will do.

I don't see the problem. He's training with MMA figthers for a small bit, but people write articles and everyone overlooks the facts.

all he needs to do is spar with sasquatch and he'll be fine

My mistake, Haye is around 6' 2, will email correction through, wrong-key bash. I'm 6' 1 and Haye is not massively taller, 6' 3 seems a stretch.

It is a news brief, I imagine that Haye is having a bit of fun, hopefully he is sparring tall fighters.

It didn't work for Tua, who was terrible in the Lewis fight, he moved like a rock.

Where are all the Russian Giants that Tyson Fury claims to be sparring?

Are they really just Russian Gypsies that Tyson has been having winner-takes-all fights with at Siberian horse fairs? J/K

Dave should give the Fury's a call, him and his family would be all over that ****. The next day we'd be hearing about how Tyson battered Haye in sparring from the Father Fury.

David Haye, 28, is hoping to overcome his height disadvantage by sparring with MMA monsters ahead of his November showdown with Nikolai Valuev. [details]

this article only proves that haye is a joke and not to be taken seriously

[Sparked_1985]

hang on, David Haye has David Price to spar with, he's 6'8.

What's his problem. David Price probably has far more natural ability than Valuev despite have the punch resistance of a Featherweight.

Go for it!

Haye would do more harm than good if he does that. The only MMA heavyweights that have decent to great stand up are Kongo, Arlovski, and thats about it. Otherwise he will spar with guys who throw haymakers all day.

I dont watch Valuev but I would believe he doesn't throw wild arching punches. Or am I wrong?

It's not about the actual stand up though. I think he's thinking about the wrestling aspect to improve his physical strength and let his body get used to that sort of hulking body.
