    Haye is a British star, like it or not.

        Hopefully this success will motivate Boxingscene to provide more links to legal streams of fights that we miss on this side of the pond.

        Well done NSB!

          This makes a joke of traditional boxing promoters who can't anywhere close to those kind of figures.

          Like him or not, Haye has star power.

            When you're a star attraction, you can fight on any channel and draw big ratings.

            Haye has an exciting style, he talks well and he's a marquee name.

              Haye could never do numbers like that here. No black fighter in the U.S. Is putting up good numbers right now.

              The U.K. Is producing more and more top level fighters and fans are enjoying it because it's still new.

              But what works there, won't work in the U.S.A. Anymore.

                      I guess those numbers should shut up all the naysayers who said he isn't a draw anymore & there were lots here. I said he wouldn't be able to talk his way into a title shot & people wouldn't want to fight him... I'd be surprised if he isn't fighting for a title by years end. Fury will fight him eventually. Fights with Fury & Joshua would do huge numbers in the UK. I'd be surprised if a guy like Martin doesn't head over to the UK to defend his title. I remember Tim Witherspoon flying to London to defend against Frank Bruno because of that nice British pound...
