David Haye Decisions Nikolai Valuev, Wins WBA Title

[ChopperRead]

Valuev was robbed. Haye buzzed him once near the end of the fight and ran the rest of the time. I had Valuev winning 116-114 and that's being generous to Haye. Haye will get knocked out by Ruiz.

Haye did the best he could. He deserved the win.

Haye did what he had to do. Once again many fans seem to forget this is boxing, not street fighting. Hit and not be hit, and that is what Haye did tonight. Valuev fought like a piece of ****, moving forward and not landing a damn thing on Haye. I'm glad this happened to this freak show because Valuev has no skills. He used his size and that's where it ended. We don't need that **** in this sport. Just wish Holyfield would of got his fair shake against this bum, last year.

Haye did more! All i have to say is "& the new!!!!"

I scored for Dirrell 116-112 and this fight the same way.

I thought they would steal it from Haye......glad they didn't!!.......Haye fought the fight he NEEDED to considering the size disadvantage.......well done Mr. Haye!!

it's funny that alot of people are sayin that haye landed the cleaner shots when to me most punches looked like they landed behind the ear, haye was even warned by the ref because his punches were so wide that most of them were landin on the back of valuevs head. haye has no chance against vitali no chance

I actually scored the fight 115-113 for Valuev though some of the rounds I thought where very close so I think it was a fair decision. I was shocked Haye remained so disciplined and took his foot of the gas until he said that he had hurt his hand. I think if he hadn't hurt his hand we would have seen Valuev on the canvas.

As a Haye fan I know hope that he fights often and doesn't go back to his six and nine month layoffs. I also hope that he has a least one fight with a Klitschko before his mandatory with Ruiz, which I believe will be a total mismatch.

So many people picked Valuev to beat and even knock Haye out...what's the excuse now? There always seems to be a new one after every Haye victory.

[boxingfan4life]

damn good win for haye. but it doesnt mean he'll beat the klitschkos. valuev may be bigger the klitschkos but he is definitely not more skilled. now that haye can prove can compete against a top heavyweight klitschkos should be next.

[ChopperRead]

but hey, haye got the job done .

now the HW will get some exposure thanks to Haye and the Klitschkos.

Valuev will get a rematch and either he or Ruiz will take Haye out. Haye showed very little tonight except the fact that he can run away from a big man. Valuev pressed and landed the jab and should have been the winner.
But that's boxing. Valuev got a lucky decision versus Evander so he lost this one that he should have won.

[elusive]

How did Valuev get robbed? He did earn a few rounds, but as he did nothing all fight, and hit clean air, how can he win rounds for just plodding forward? Boxing is a sport. A science. Surely Haye should be commended for sticking to a very good game plan.

Valuev robbed? As if. Get a grip.

Well done David, you were awesome.
