David Haye on Nikolai Valuev – “He's a Big, Ugly Boy”

[Ringrust]

Good Luck Haye Smash the big guy up, I saw an old Holyfield take him on, The picture of The bog Ogur and Haye together is frightning but hes big and slow and even lacks power for his size. Chop him down Haye! Get some Praise!

I can't get my head around that size difference.

The difference in size is VERY noticeable, isn't it? I can't see Haye hurting Valuev at all, and if V aims at Haye's chest, and sticks out his left hand, how would Haye get near him?

Not to mention what has already been pointedout by several writes, that 300lbs d****d all over Haye in a clinch, would slowly sink him into the canvas, bit by bit.

Just beat him then man up and fight the K bros Haye.

it would be funny if he lost to valuev.valuev is 50-1(with a couple contraversial decision wins vs ruiz & holyfield)so this is not a walk in the park like many think.im positive valuev is in shape for this fight.i want haye to win just so the klit brothers must fight them on equal terms contractually. they deny they will fight him but if he has the WBA title then talk is cheap. haye must defend vs ruiz as long as john wins his next fight on the undercard.its important that haye wins so the division has some direction.haye wants out of boxing soon so i see him fighting his mandatory(ruiz if he wins his undercard fight)then the winner of arreola/vitali.wlad has 2 mandatories & is injured so unless hes fit to hit his mandatory dates there is the chance an interim champion could be named following an eliminator.there is a chance of an undisputed champ by end of 2010.only a slight one thou.it depends on haye winning & an wlads recovery from injuries.i hope wlad makes a good recovery.im not a fan but i believe a man should lose his title in the ring not in the infermory.

I've heard of a report which said Haye will retire from boxing at the age of 30. He is 29 now, and lost one very important year by pulling out from the two K fights. Can't find it now, though.

That being said I doubt he'll really retire if he is holding one or more belts. He would not pass the payday of a belt unifiaction vs. a Klitschko just 'cause his birthday is around the corner.

No matter how angry I was that Haye pulled out of two K fights, he brought fresh air to HW, and it would be a pity if he bowed out right after 1-2 title fights/defenses.

[vercingetorix3]

Good for you David Haye. Now just fight him.

[Mushashi]

I wouldn't mind seeing Haye get ****** up, dude's an *******.

haye a funny guy you've got to give it to him - the lord of the rings comments had me rolling on the floor!!

anyway its going to be interesting to see how haye lands on this mans chin, but if holyfield outpointed valuev then haye should be able to do the same
