Comments Thread For: David Haye on Board, Signs Contract To Fight Tyson Fury

He hasn't proved anything he's never been in a fight with someone that has decent punching power.

i meant in the hypothetical scenario that he defeats tony thompson.

[CraigM]

erm, he also proves he is better than thompson, who is a pretty solid fighter as we now know.

That just proves he remains at the level he currently is to be honest.

Fury's uncle confirmed it's on the main page.

Yep, just checked the latest twitter updates on @peterfury and you are quite right.

Can't wait! Still, Haye by KO/TKO.

you don't think thompson would be his toughest opponent to date? i am dubious about fury's recent induction into the top ten. i think it's premature. i like fury and i want him to continue improving, rather than be suddenly plunged into the deep end against haye.

I miss having good heavyweight fighters...been too long.

This.

I can't wait for this fight! Revive the HW division please!

You know Fury is one annoying SOB when people start rooting for Haye!

Lets not forget this is by the WBC and WBO, both of whom don't rate povetkin in their top 15. His ranking (at least with the aforementioned) is too high considering his previous opposition and relative lack of top 20 competition.

Would be nice to see him fight around the circuit more (especially with free channel 5 boxing - UK) and improve, he certainly has age on his side, because at the moment he doesn't have the skills to compete at the elite level and Haye will show that in Sept.

I nearly cried from laughter hearing him sing (post cunningham fight). He's definitely a character and who knows where his career will go, should be a fun ride though.

Lets all pray for a double ko.

**** yeah, this is going to be one of the best fights this year.
