I had the feeling this might be quick too, but still, it does nothing for the lack of excitement or buzz around it does it?

I feel even if Haye looks great, not many people will really care. Haye's image is ruined in my opinion, he doesn't want to face Fury and he will not be the fighter he once was by the time AJ is near the world level... He won't even generate much interest in England never mind the world, therefore his career will probably never pick up steam again I feel.

De Mori is a top 10 WBA ranked guy through winning a regional belt. Haye will crush this guy in a round or 2 unless he carries the fight. De Mori is usually in way better shape as he was a bodybuilder but he has a weak resume. He did have an exciting 8 rounder with Alex Leapai years ago. Haye takes this guy out then will be in the top 10 of the WBA. If his shoulder holds up then he makes things very interesting in the HW division. His career can still get back on track. He was injured for 3.5 years not inactive for no reason. He's giving it one more go so let's see what happens. Can his body stay healthy is the biggest question. 227lbs is big for him so I wonder if he loses speed? If he wins & stays healthy I suspect he goes the WBA route to Fury or he will have to take another route to the WBC or IBF. The one thing he won't have on his side this run is the ability to talk his way into a title fight. With 3 cancellations from injury most fighters will take a wait & see approach before negotiating with him. Let's give the guy a chance. His disposal of Chisora was quite impressive. I expect 2-3 rounds at most against De Mori.

Obviously not lifting the weights like he use to. He was pretty big before. Still 243 but not ripped like before. He was too big & stiff looking so maybe he decided to cut down. He did say he would consider retiring if he wins so maybe this is it for him...
