Haye v Chisora

[Rosco]

Anyone going to Upton Park, or going to watch this ?

As stupid as their behaviour has been, this is the first time I've been interested in a heavyweight fight for years. It might actually be a fight for a change.

Will watch it if I'm in, which I don't yet know. I feel slightly guilty for being interested in the outcome, but that applies to boxing generally.

Shortening the fight to 10 rounds will favour Haye if it's true that Chisora's likely strategy is to let Haye tire and then go looking to land a big one on him. Chisora and his corner will know that, so I'm thinking he may look to surprise Haye and make a fairly big effort early in the fight instead. If he hasn't knocked Haye out by about Round 4 (which is possible, because he can certainly bang a bit) I think Haye will go on to win.

I know they look like dicks throughout the whole episode but the argument that it brings boxing into disrepute is laughable isn't it ?

When was the last time boxing was reputable ?

Haye is a cockend, Chisora is a cockend, I hope they both get the shit kicked out of them. Ideally they will also lose their purse too for being twats. I would hate to see those 2 scumbags profiteering from such disgusting behaviour.

When the sea was made of yoghurt.

It wasn't shortened. It was always 10 rounds, chisora is talking out of his arse, have showed a journo a page from the contract showing the rounds.

 

[hmmmmm1]

Why did they make 10 instead of 12 rounds

A lot of non title fights are 10 rounds. Wouldn't be surprised if Hayes camp insisted on it though.

cheers

I really don't get the disgust and outcry over Hayes and Chisora. What they did was minor league compared to the truly disgusting behaviour of loads of boxers. The British Boxing Board had no problem letting convicted rapist and ear-biting animal Mike Tyson fight in the UK.

So they kicked off and had a bit of slap at eachother. SO. FUCK.

 

[Dahuge]

That was a cracking finish from Haye...first man to put chisora on the canvas as well.....apart from that was a bit of a shite fight.

 

[themn]

I forgot all about this.

 

[cloggypop]

I got a Dutch pub to show it . Better fight than I was expecting .

 

[Glen C]

i watched it on stream, really enjoyed it. glad haye won.

 

[RedZeppelin III]

so did they really hate each other or was it all an act ?

whatever they're both still cunts and so were all of the 30000 that paid to watch them , even if was an entertaining fight . i'd rather have a shark bite off me bollocks then give money to them , booth or warren .

 

[Judge Jules]

My guess is they meant it when they fell out. The way they have now put it behind them actually does them some credit IMO.

I think it was a load of shite.

 

[Judge Jules]

In theory that's quite possible, particularly from Chisora's point of view, but in practice I'm not sure I can see Haye coming back out of retirement just for such a nothing fight.

He's admitted that he saw himself beating klitschko then retiring though, so I suspect he saw it as a chance to come back whilst saving face & getting a second chance.

Otherwise it doesn't add up, in three interviews he's repeated that he'd forgotten all about boxing & wasn't interested in the sport, yet he was at a boxing press conference mouthing off?
