    Haye made it fun for us to hate him, and even the biggest Haye-hater knows that deep down.

    I would like to see him keep boxing.

    I feel that way about Mayweather. Neither are really bad guys but they goad and provoke fans to dislike them and it's hard not to get drawn into that.

    Yeah about $30 million and he won't blow it like some.

    Still, we don't watch boxing for the money they earn, we watch it for what happens in the ring. It would be good to see him continue imo, he fought a decent fight v Wlad, just didn't take enough risks and didn't leave it all in the ring.

          He had just become pathetic by the end.

          He could be an interesting addition to the HW mix, if he was interested in fighting the other contenders (a fight between he and Adamek would be sick) but he has no interest in doing that. At most, he wants one final pay cheque against a Klit.

          And on that basis, I'm glad he's finished.

          Ta-ta.

                  Of course. That's the whole point. If you can't take it seriously, it's not as much fun.

                  But the fight is over now.

                  And even I have to admit that Haye made it interesting. I'd be a liar to say otherwise. He had us all going, whether pro or con. And he got Wlad into it as well. Wlad seemed to be thriving on it by the end. He even outdid Haye at some of the pressers. So it was good for him as well.

                  I'm sure if he fights Vitali, I'd get pissed off again real quick.

                    Wlad went up in my esteem a whole lot the way he handled Haye's trash talking

                    I thought he was way more clever and almost always had the upper hand when they were in presence of each other

                    Haye would be a fool to start all over again his big talk if he is to fight Vitali, cause nobody will believe in it anymore

                      I agree. I think he'd have to adopt a new persona for Vitali. Try to be more humble. That might be tough for him!!

                      Yeah, Wlad is very funny, and Haye's antics forced Wlad out of his shell to show his personality, and it worked very well for him.
