What makes you say half the nation doesn't rate him? We know he is over-hyped by our media but he is rated by many of UK fans.lol. National hero. Believe me much of the U.K dont rate Haye and like me wont take him seriously until he fights a serious top fighter like Klitschko obviously because nobody else comes close.
Haye just needs to back up his words and stop talking.
He just makes himself look like a complete tit by talking loads of **** and not backing it up. I was not impressed with his running against Valuev either, After he said over and over he is the "only hope of the HW division" and will bring back exictement to the division. Yeah right
He has knockout power, great footwork, good all round boxer.
Cos he never KO'ed a giant he ain't got power? ask Enzo Mac if he has power, ask Mormack if he has power and i'm sure they will say he has. Ask John Ruiz after he knocks him out if he has power.Comment

I agree he has power and good all around skills, but his footwork is terrible.
He is flatfooted, sits on his back foot loading up his right hand, and has average lateral movement at best. He was only able to avoid Valuev because the giant is slower than molasses in winter.
1 Million points that Haye does not fight a Klitschko by July 15th, 2011.
No exceptions. In the ring by that date. If they sign to fight in June to fight in late August you still lose.Comment

Haye has reiterated that he will retire when he turns 31 years old.
Haye fights once every 8 months give or take. He has fought 3 times in the past 2 years.
So he fights Ruiz in April of 2010
Then he has to give Valuev his rematch probably in November of 2010
Then he has to fight the winner of Chagaev-Meehan that will probably happen in May-June of 2011.
That leaves him only 4 months to face a Klitschko before his self imposed retirement date...... Not gonna happen, he won't want to end his career with a humiliating loss so he will probably face Audley Harrison in October of 2011 and then retire without backing up a single one of his boasts.
Goddamn I am good.
I made this thread 3.5 months ago before anyone had even entertained the possibility of Haye being such a ***** he would fight Audley.
Looks like I was wrong about the date... but damn I am good.
I think I have some psychic powers.Comment

Let's wait and see what happens in the next few months.
He HAS to fight a Klitschko to back up what he's been saying.
If he doesnt then he will look bad, but I wont be suprised if he keeps talking and never makes the fight. It's strange because he acted like he really wanted to fight them, But looking back I think that was just talk. He made himself more popular by talking about fighting someone who he had zero intention of getting in the ring with. Some might say that's smart but to me it's a ***** move.Comment

The thing that really bugs me about David Haye is this: He did not deserve his title shot against Valuev, he did not earn it and came by it through nothing but dumb luck.
Now that Haye has the belt he is not willing to give the same opportunity to a young, undefeated fighter. He is instead content to sit on his belt, take fights against the least deserving challengers, and basically hamstring the entire division.
The WBA Rankings are filled with guys who would make for intriguing matchups with Haye such as Adamek, Boytsov, Dimitrenko, Odlanier Solis and even Shannon Briggs.
However since every one of these fights comes with an element of risk this piece of **** Haye will just refuse to fight any of them.
Yet, on the other hand, Harrison is not even ranked in the Top-15 by the WBA and Haye would have to basically pay off the WBA to rank Harrison so that he could fight him without being stripped.Comment
