hardly surprising listening to warren, he always sounds bitter about toerh fighters who are never in his own stable.
interesting listening to manny who said that haye has improved alot, has cruiserweight speed and that haye is very talented.
haye by KO in 10. -
Frank Warren: "An old Evander Holyfield gave Valuev a lot of problems and a lot of people thought he won the fight. Holyfield has got a good chin though and David Haye hasn't, in my opinion. I don't think he's got great stamina either. He's got to win that fight by boxing, not looking for big shots. Haye should beat him but I'm not a big fan of David Haye either. I've got to lean towards Valuev."
Is it just me or is Frank Warren on the one hand saying David Haye should and will win, but then goes on to say Valuev will win?

Frank Warren is like a spiteful little girl, he never supports any British fighter who hasn't signed with him. He should be greatful that Haye helped him make Enzo Mac's biggest pay cheque, considering how overated he turned out to be.Comment

I don't even think it was an accident dude, he said Haye SHOULD win, as if in his mind even he expects Haye to win. But then goes on to say I'm leaning towards Valuev, as if to say I'm desperately trying to convince myself Valuev will win, yes, he will.
What a A* idiot. And he's got one eye.Comment
