          How do you know Haye won't fight Adamek? The K-bros fight will happen.....I think both beat him but Haye would have a great chance of beating any other HW in the world making him world class in another division.....which is why he has another world title succeeding where 50 fighters have failed.

            Has the whole 'British boxers are overhyped' nonsense come from just two decisions - Froch and Haye? I can understand when it comes to Froch, as I believed Dirrell won the fight, but I firmly believe Haye deserved to beat Valuev. I'm not British, but I'm living here at the moment and I don't think the British boxers are overhyped...the British public just love their boxing, what's so wrong with that?

                Which is nothing to be proud of. You fit in with NSB people, NSB people are "smart" people

                You're not here to discuss boxing, your here to try and **** on British fighters.

                    The only british fighter who i think is overhyped was Ricky Hatton, Froch is getting hype that he deserved before which he wasnt getting, Khan isnt hyped by most british boxing fan, We all know he isnt that good but he's still 21 or 22 so i would give him sometime.

                    Haye isnt hype at all, The guy hype himself up but i think he has every reason to because he has alway done things the hard way, He has never been afraid to take on a challenge by going into his opponents backyard so i would give him that.

                      the "hype" factor has more to do with the fact the us americans are bombarded with haye, froch, hatton, and khan in our boxing publications on a regular basis, when the reality is, none of them are world-class fighters, and IMO only khan has world-class type of talent...

                      as the voting indicates, it gets annoying after a while...

                      we saw hatton get bombed TWICE...haye fight the most boring fight in history...froch get a disgusting hometown decision...and khan want to leave town because he believes he racially persecuted...

                      not exactly a bastion of success in the world of british boxing...sorry to break the news to ya...
