I know what youre saying and I'm not having a go it's just in my eyes they are past being prospeccts and are now looking to do major things.

I'm sure that most boxers would be proud to be able to fight for a National title, it's not only people at the top that put their lives into the sport.

no worries mate i know what you're sayin.... i'm not knocking euro/british level, like i said, i respect every guy who fights for pay, it takes dedication and character. it's just i don't see it as reaching the top, i.e. world level, where fighters and fans aspire to. yea maybe the likes of groves and the olympians are more what u would say are genuine prospects tho.
should be a top nite on sat if you're goin....m.e.n. is always a top atmosphere for the big fights.

No he can't. I was fully behind Haye in his run at HW when he first entered the division. I was counting on him to add some extra excitement, and a credible threat to the Klitschkos, or at least to Wlad. But he did nothing but run his mouth, then run off scared. Fuck Haye.
