Comments Thread For: British Board Lashes Out Over Haye-Chisora Promotion

[joe strong]

the BBBoC is a joke & should stop crying. no one cares about your pathetic stewards & their ****** decisions. i hope more british promoters use the luxembourg commision instead of the BBBoC. this will be a huge event & they won't get a cent...HAHAHA!

[DoktorSleepless]

Chisora should go wild with all the slapping he wants and get himself banned from Luxembourg Boxing Federation after the fight Then he could come to the US and get banned from 50 different commissions.

[Drunk Punch]

Their statement says that anyone who takes part in this event will have their license revoked....

...Does this means the fighters on the undercard will all get bans if they participate?

...Or will Warren fill the card with non-domestic fighters from Sauerland's stable?

At the end of the day, the fight is going to sell like crazy.

At the end of the day these guy's are the one's who have allowed Audley Harrison to fight all these years - that alone kills their arguement of doing what's best for boxing.

Is it a proper way for you to spell, or are you a moron?

As long as precautions will be made, I'm for seeing the fight. With the way both are, I wouldn't pay for it, though. It can end real quick...

I seem to be in the minority but I actually agree with the BBoBC, and im surprised people even want to see this 'fight'

I like their stance actually. Go ahead with the fight, but we won't back it and send no one to help. They are within their rights to do so.

If a boxers cheats with roids or something, they can get a license elsewhere and fight on with any dodgy commision. People will make money.

For example the BBoC didn't allow Herol Graham to fight Julian Jackson because he couldn't see in on eye, but then apparently he went to another commision and got the fight.

The BBBoC are taking an unnecessarily draconian stance on this issue and their decisions have been questionable from the beginning. The initial decision to ban Chisora indefinitely was inexplicable from the outset, Chisora should have received no more than a 3 month suspension and should have been advised of this directly, given a precise amount of time to contend with, instead of being left with an indeterminable threat of never being able to obtain a British license again. This is an extreme position of duress to place any athlete in and the BBBoC's decision to enforce such a judgement is, quite simply, unacceptable.

In my opinion, at this point both Chisora and Haye have been punished enough for allowing their tempers to temporarily flair out of control one night. No one was seriously injured during the altercation and the incident itself took place both outside the ring and outside the jurisdiction of the BBBoC. I believe the correct course of action now is for the BBBoC to officially license each boxer, sanction the fight in July and establish their status as the official supervisory body of the biggest British heavyweight boxing match since Lewis vs Bruno.

Great fight, I just can't understand all the whining *****es who's complaining about it.

This is professional boxing, not curling.
