    That said a British boxer becoming the number 1 heavyweight since Lewis would not be devastating either
    Thanks for your feedback.

    I met Lewis once on a plane, some time ago. Of course, he was a Canadian amateur then. I spoke mostly with his trainer, as he didn't talk too much then. We spoke about his diet. Trainer wanted to get him to stop eating mostly fast food burgers. Maybe Lewis wasn't then fond of giving that up?

    Lewis was nice, but seemed shy. Maybe he was just tired.

      Yeah I'm English. David Haye has left a bad taste in my mouth for years, Pulling out of numerous fights with both K brothers, boring fight with the Giant in which i thought he lost and his embarrassing "fight" with Harrison.

        Fair enough, thanks.

        What do you think of the way the British Boxing Council (or whatever the correct term is) let him get away with his admission re the Audley fight?

          I wan't to see a good fight, that's all.

          Haye looks a very worried man at the moment, perhaps the reality is setting in now? I'm getting the impression Wlad is the man, and Haye is a little boy.

          I can't see Haye winning this one.

            BTW, British gents, I appreciate the way we can have an intelligent conversation here. It seems so rare at this place.

            Thank you.

              The fight should never have been sanctioned in the first place, complete mismatch, and then you find out Haye was telling people to bet on the 3rd round and the fact that he put a bet on himself as well.

              It was a disgrace and Haye should have been punished in some way, a fine would been enough even though he can afford to pay any fine lol.

                On another note, gotta give props to Wlad for the interview on BBC news. He came across really well and may have won himself a few fans.

                  Yeah, he didn't look too happy at the presser I saw. Was that from Hamburg?

                  But maybe it is because of stuff the K's are doing behind the scenes?
                  See my earlier post in this thread. I think the K's are expert in using the media to come off as saints, when the opposite is the case behind the scenes. I used the guarded, censored comments from Byrd.

                    Haye looks scared to me, I've never seen him act like that in a press conference before. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he pulls out the fight, citing an 'injury' or something.

                      I'm looking forward to seeing Wlad lay some daddy's discipline on the fella.
