I took exception to him saying that "the Klitschkos are a disgrace to the sport." In what way are they a disgrace? They are classy inside and outside of the ring and have been good ambassadors to the sport... -
it's strange that he speaks such things. These are educated, disciplined and respectable guys. Guys who happen to be able to knock Haye the f*** out with no problem.Comment

He said Chambers and Arreola were a disgrace for the condition they turned up.Comment

Do you have a link to the quote? I think you must have mis-remembered it. He's often criticised Wlad for being boring and robotic, but I've never heard him call either of them a disgrace to the sport. When he was still a Cruiserweight, he said that when he moved up to Heavyweight he was going to knock out "the fat lazy bums who are a disgrace to the sport", but he meant that the Klitschkos' opponents have been fat, lazy bums, and that he'd knock some of them out on his way to getting a title shot. No one could accuse the Klitschkos themselves of being fat or lazy - even Haye in trash talking mode wouldn't accuse them of being that.Last edited by Dave Rado; 04-03-2010, 07:15 PM.Comment

It looks as if with Haye we are in for a Lennox Lewis redivivus, with his bombastic denigration of other heavyweights. He seems not to be able to keep his mouth shut, but must always, if he isn't speaking in glowing terms about his "World Championship" to be doing the nasty on his pugilistic associates.
How long will it be, I wonder, before he refers to himself in the 3rd person??Comment
