Comments Thread For: Photos: David Haye Hands Ruiz a Beating in Manchester

[HitmanHattonAY]

At the MEN Arena in Manchester, England, WBA heavyweight champion David Haye (24-1, 22K KOs) retained his title with a ninth-round stoppage over former two-time champion John Ruiz (44-9-1, 30 KOs). Haye scored four knockdowns during the contest. Ruiz has probably seen his final shot at a major world title. Haye will move forward to chase a unification with the Klitschko brothers.

this was a interesting and good fight...well done haye

Haye is more exciting than Vlad is. Matter of fact Arreola and Haye both are along with Vlad's big bro. I don't think Haye can beat either Klit though. And hopefully the Quiet Man retires after today.

terrible shots lol, great fight tho

Does anyone know what Ruiz has attached to his shoes and what they're for? I've never noticed them before... Good fight for Haye, I had a little feeling Ruiz would catch him on the chin and KO him. Regardless of what anyone says, Haye is the most exciting boxer in the division I think.

Stabilisers.

Haye was good, but he fought lazy. He could have ended that fight in the first three rounds if he really tried.

I didn't see anything that would make me give Haye any more than a puncher's chance against Wlad or Vitali.

Amazing performance

Exciting fighter!!! Hope he will not be accused of PEDS in dominating BIG GUYS on the division...

What do you think Mayweathers and JOKE HOYA???

Haye floored Ruiz just 25 seconds into the encounter, but the American challenger showed tremendous bravery and powers of recovery to survive.

For a moment it looked as if Ruiz was working his way back into the fight.

But the badly-marked 38-year-old was down in the fifth and again in the sixth before his corner called a halt three rounds later.

Haye wants a fight against either Klitschko to take place at London's Wembley Stadium, although the Ukrainian siblings would prefer it to happen in their adopted Germany where they command huge television audiences and would have little problem filling a football stadium.

Haye was all set to fight Wladimir in Gelsenkirchen last June before Haye pulled out with a back injury, but the Englishman will use the impressive nature of his victory over Ruiz to claim he is now the bigger draw.

Great Pics!

so what's up next for Haye?

[Lacrimosa]

Now If Chris Arreola beats Adamek I would love to see a Haye Arreola showdown

I would like to see Wlad fighting Arreola/Adamek winner.

Good performance from Haye, i thought he could have let his hands go a bit more though.

[roxy]

I can't wait to watch this now.

My cable went down man was f-----g raging .Missed the fight .

We have to accept the performance of Haye. He fought very intellegently. I want to ask a question: What will be the out come of Haye Vs Tua? Isn't a good fight?

[Kulle]

Yeah, that was a nice beatdown. I mean, you rabbit punch a guy all the time and when he gets dropped he gets a count instead of time to recover. Good job UK!
