    Haye tried to make the fight seem credible, he sold it to the public and then put on that abysmal display. That fight really hurt boxing over here. Wlad fighting Mormeck doesn't bother me as neither man proclaimed to be the saviour of the heavyweight division and even still, Mormeck is better than a domestic level fighter like Audley Harrison.

    Mormeck-Klitschko received barely any attention and hype where as Harrison-Haye was being billed as 'Battle of Britain'. David Haye fighting someone who was losing against Michael Sprott until pulling out that big punch in the 12th, fuck sake .

    Don't twist it, there was no demand for a Harrison fight and Haye is solely to blame for that farce.

      Is this a good win?? A SHW against a CW? That's a straight weight class mismatch already, its not far off a typical Klitschko fight, beating up on a midget. Its just a somewhat classless win, that's all. I was behind poor little CSteve all the way, he took the fight to the big man.

      It was an exciting fight only because Cunningham despite a massive weight and age disadvantage, delivered in spades and Tyson had to respond or he'd have been out.

      At least we know Fury can get up and recover from KDs, that's all we gleaned here.

      But Tyson should be fighting genuine HWs if he wants to be fighting for a world title next to next, and theres no excuse for aiming as low as the division below when you are nearly 7 feet tall. Sort it out!

        When you said there was no demand you just lost all of your credibility.

        Everyone was so hyped for that fight, incl tv stations and the audience. People were in doubt who would win, even the experts.

        Haye never said it would be close or Harrison is good or anything like that.
        He clearly said: "Harrison always talks about his left hand. That honey punch. I've never seen it and it would never land on me".

          Are you fucking serious?

          Here's what I think, you're a European based poster in some Scandinavian country who doesn't really have too much of a clue about the going ons in the domestic scene.

          You're a fan of Haye because he brings entertainment, reflex-based style and big power but you don't really know too much else. There was no doubt who would win, only how long it was going to last. The 'experts' are supposed to be in limbo, if they spoke their mind they'd have no job at Sky - make your own mind up.

          Obviously Haye said Harrison was good, how the fuck else do you sell a fight? They kept ****ing on about a gold medal he won as an amateur.

          The irony of you calling me the one who's lost credibility when you come out with that drivel.

            Yeah, I really don't think Wladimer would fall for Fury's bread and butter left elbow-right hand combination.

                Haye says the fight is nothing more than a warm up.
                David Haye views Saturday's showdown with Audley Harrison as merely 'a warm-up fight' as he aims to fight both Klitschko brothers and retire in 2011.

                  Let me just verify as to what is going to make me look like I'm talking crap?

                  Is it;

                  A) Haye-Harrison was a fight in demand
                  B) Haye trying to make the fight seem credible.

                    Those links show that both are a load of bollocks and you don't no what you're talking about. Show me some articles with Haye trying to make the fight seem credible.

                      I saw Cunningham landing jabs and right hands at will almost the whole fight. Only in the last few rounds did Fury's size prevail. Boxing wise Cunningham was giving him a boxing lesson for the most part.
