Man I ENJOYED that. Seriously tense.

Sorry BBBoC and everyone that's ever used the phrase "Euro Bum." This is what boxing's all about.

Side note: I swear i saw Michael Buffer with his own Michael Buffer cards. I may be mistaken but I thought they had his face on them. Amazing if true.

Further side note: I think ten rounds is a good thing and favors neither fighter. How to make an already explosive fight, more explosive.

Haye's so light for a heavyweight.

David really increased his protein intake for this one!

They announced his weight at 96 kg. My math says it comes out to 211.5 lb, but Buffer announced a minute or so later that he weighed "210 US pounds". An oopsy on my part as I edited the main section but fudged the intro feed

Haye has speed in mind coming in so light. Chisora is a bit on the heavy side.

Once upon a time, heavyweights weighed in two days early, while the rest of the card weighed in the day before. I guess Frank Warren felt it was fitting to dust off that old tradition.

King might be the only US promoter who still (occasionally) does this, but it's been a while. Most commissions only want one weigh-in, really for no other reason than they don't send (and pay) staff for two days.
