    Thanks for that.
    IMO not the worst thing. But I wondered, if like Don King, he has tried to stiff many of his fighters, which one person above did say.

    Now I recall the Calzaghe suit. Which I believe Joe won and Frank still didn't pay up or something?

      I am quite shocked at the support shown towards Wlad over Haye especially coming from UK fans.

      For anybody to say that Haye should be fined for the Harrison fight is a total idiot. Were you really that gullible to think that fight was going to be the least bit entertaining? I certainly did not buy into the hype and I do not feel sorry for foolish fans period.

      As for the fight against Wlad there are a lot of people saying Haye has been ducking Wlad for years but why are you still upset? The fight is going to take place and you are still salty? Get over it, this is how the business works.

      I am not overly bothered by the hatred that Haye receives from the UK boxing fans because they will all be back on the bandwagon as soon as Haye beats Wlad.

          Do not call other posters insulting names. Try just diagreeing without insulting. And you did not say if you are a Brit?
          I above stated that he should have been fined (so I guess I am an "idiot" according to you (red k), but if you read it, it was not for the fight being a stinker. It was for admitting the fight was fixed for a 3rd rd win.

            Im British and i ****ing hate David Haye. I cant stand his mouth and his arrogance. His career at Heavyweight has been bull****.

            Past his sell by date in Barrett and then defeated a very limited giant in Valuev. I was hoping Valuev would Falcon Pawnch Haye. I knew Ruiz wouldnt win but i pulled for him. Another bull**** defence and then of course the Fraudley disaster....i even pulled for Audrey in that fight coz i cant stand Haye.

            Im hoping Wladimir wins but the upset is there....if Wlad loses, i'll be disappointed but i know that Vitali ''The Grim Reaper'' Klitschko is waiting.

            I have many friends who are pulling for the Klitshckos and many friends in the US that are doing the same.

                The Vitali kick to Lewis in Rd 4 is here at about 2:54.



                Did you know that folks? And what do you think?

                  I think it was bad sportsmanship from Vitali but it doesnt anger me to see him do that. He was a kickboxer in his earlier days lol.

                  I hated Lewis, like i hate other brit boxers but it was class of him to offer a hand.

                  Yes, i HATE nearly all british boxers but i do have respect for Frank Bruno, Henry Cooper, Carl Froch, Barry McGuigan and Nigel Benn.

                    After the fight was over, Vitali went over to Lewis and gave him a couple of "taps" to the shoulder, such as at about 7:09 here.



                    Lewis being a gent let this offense slide, when many others would have replied in kind and some real bedlam might then have erupted. Wlad, tries to calm Vitali down.

                    Lewis IMO showed class, but not Vitali, as with the kick.

                      Yes, I knew they did kickboxing. Vitali showed his stretch there. But no class.
