Are you disappointed in David Haye?

[Hitman932]

Disappointed but not surprised. He turned out to be just like all the other UK fighters in the 5-6 years, Hatton, Calzaghe, etc. Basically hide in the UK, don't fight anyone good until they're either over the hill or you're ready to cash out.

Pretty much spot on.

Froch is the first British fighter in a decade to make it a point to come to the US early in his career.

Hatton and Calzaghe ended their careers accomplishing very little, and Haye will end his accomplishing even less.

Yeah, Joe Calzaghe accomplished very little in his career.

Yeah, Joe Calzaghe accomplished very little in his career.

His biggest win is over a 43-year-old Bernard Hopkins. Other than that, what exactly has he done that is worth mentioning?

[BrooklynBomber]

Watch him get a fraction of what he would have gotten against K brothers, fighting Valuev and then the kids from King's stable for the rest of his career. He could have been a shooting star, but now he will just fade away into obscurity fighting Ruizes and Oquendos of boxing.

[BrooklynBomber]

He could have had a first real rivalry in boxing that would have fascinated people around the world, but now he ain't getting nowhere.

Early in his career?

He finished his long career unbeaten, having won titles in two weight classes. Can you make me a list of other fighters who accomplished this? Of course you probably don't recognize any achievements that didn't happen in the US. Also Joe's biggest win was over Kessler, not Hopkins or Jones.

Well, he's only been relevant for about a year and a half in boxing so by that this is definitely early in his career.

And Kessler has done what exactly? Kessler's biggest win is either Andrade or Beyer for crying out loud, so way to make Calzaghe look even worse by calling THAT his biggest win.

So if finishing unbeaten over 2 weight classes is so huge, you must have REALLY been tooting Mayweather's horn when he retired last summer, finishing unbeaten in FIVE weight classes.

I'm gonna go back and check out all your posts from summer 2008 and see how much you glorified Floyd for finishing unbeaten in 5 weight classes. I bet you were just praising him left and right.
