Well just over a week to go till Haye vs Klitschko fight so how do people think it will pan out?

Think myself Haye has s good chance as long as he doesnt take to many big risks and try to knock him out too early as the bigger guy sure can hit!

[Ollie the Optimist]

with waht you said. haye has got to do what he did against valuyev, and thats get his tatics spot on and make sure his shots land (like the last round in that fight)

[GP]

All I know is, never bet on the white guy

[Marc Overmars]

Not a huge boxing fan but really looking forward to the fight this Saturday. Tough one to call which makes it more interesting than other big fights of recent times.

[KESSLER]

Really excited for this as it's been 2 years in the making and we haven't had a proper heavyweight clash since Lennox Lewis v Vitali Klitschko.

That being said, i don't fancy Haye's chances in this. I think Wlad will frustrate and then take him out in the middle to last rounds

[Young Guns 11]

I want to see Haye KO'd as hard as possible.

And then for klitschko to shit on his KO'd face :good:

[dazthegooner]

Though that is unlikely to happen is it? ;)

We still ain't with this fight.

Boxing for what it was not for what its become, when more people would prefer to watch to Middleweights(Mayweather vs Pacchio, if it happens) than heavy one you know its time change the sport.

It will be hard to call, but haye needs to win or he will be finished

[isv]

good luck to Haye for the fight later, hope you win, but feel your going home in a London ambulance.....

[Marc Overmars]

Klitschko on points.

I'll be very surprised if Haye can knock him out.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haye is delaying it by ten minutes.

[Maestro]

okay let's get this on

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The crowd are trying to grab Haye. :lol:

[Maestro]

Haye better win this by KO after that posturing

[Marc Overmars]

Haye. :lol:

Ah man I hope he can do this.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Boos for the Ukranian national anthem?

[Power n Glory]

Haye better not lose. He's been doing all the talking.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Two Americans and a South African are the judges. Didn't note down the names down in time. :lol:

[Maestro]

Dr Steel Hammer ... :-)

[Marc Overmars]

Haye better not lose. He's been doing all the talking.

Yeah, he has potentially set himself up for a big fall. I like him but sometimes I think he just needs to reign it in a little.

Btw the Hamburg arena looks epic. Football stadiums with boxing rings. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Here we go.

:popcorn:

[Maestro]

These fighters are so different it should be an interesting fight, no punches landed

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Klitschko's so far.

[Maestro]

come on the inside and you can get dragged into a dog fight, stay on the outside and you have no reach

just stay in it and tire him out Haye, then pounce

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haye taking the jabs but the bad news is, he's taking jabs. Klitschko is easily backing away.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haye gets a big right hand in!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good round that one.

[Maestro]

Klit drops his hands and he will get bombed

[Maestro]

KO the only way for Haye here 29 to 19 landed punches so far in favour of Ivan Drago

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Was Klitschko complaining of an elbow?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haye is bloodied up now too.

[Maestro]

Strong blow from Klit, blood on Haye's nose

Another round to Klit

[Marc Overmars]

Oh dear.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Klitschko's jabs are becoming more frequent, Haye could well be tiring here.

[Maestro]

Come on Haye back up that talk son, give us a fight

[Maestro]

true. somehow i don't think Klit will go the KO too early and that may give Haye a KO in the later rounds. interesting fight so far


Klitschko's jabs are becoming more frequent, Haye could well be tiring here.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Jim Watt has Haye losing by 1 in every round.

[Maestro]

Good block by Klit, Haye trying to get back in it ...I score the 7th round level

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Point deduction for Haye?

[Maestro]

no for Klit I thought

[Marc Overmars]

Little chance of Haye getting the KO.

I'll eat my hat if he does.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I did too but the main commentator then said it was for Haye. I have a choppy stream so relying on their commentary for about half of it. :lol:

[Maestro]

Haye having to fly sorties, in and out ...he must stay in it till the end. the last two rounds will be explosive

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haye down to one knee, back up though.

[Maestro]

Klit has landed 61 to 27 for Haye

It is so on for Haye now, he needs to step it up and start hurting Klit

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Haye finally gets a big hit in. That's what he needs now.

[Maestro]

and he does just that with a hard punch, but no combos from Haye sor far

[Maestro]

come on Haye where is the follow up and consistency here

[McNamara That Ghost...]

They hit each other at exactly the same time in that last round. :lol:

[Maestro]

how George Foreman still has this fight as level on his scorecard is testament to the lasting effects of years of poundage to the cranium

[Maestro]

kodak moment that was, tomorrows newspaper shot


They hit each other at exactly the same time in that last round. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Big right hand from Klitschko at the end of that round. Haye took it though.

[Marc Overmars]

He picked the wrong brother.

[Maestro]

standing count for Haye, wild with his thows

the more he is frustrated the more he is desperate

KO needed no w from Haye, Klit leading on all accounts apart from Foreman ofc

[McNamara That Ghost...]

This is it then, last round for Haye. Has little choice but to go for it.

[Maestro]

Klit better than I gave him credit for, wrong brother for sure.

Haye punch drunk

Here goes lads, the most important round of Haye's life , will he rise to the occasion

All talk and now for the moment of truth


He picked the wrong brother.

[Maestro]

Klit holding, Haye going for it ....all getting Messi like Lionel here

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Surely this is Klitschko's on points.

[Maestro]

99 to 57 landed

Haye has lost, please don't blame the ref Haye

[Marc Overmars]

Will Haye fight the other one?

[Maestro]

certainly, Klit had the measure of Haye and was intelligent about his approach as he negated Haye's weaponry


Surely this is Klitschko's on points.

[Power n Glory]

Awful gameplan from Haye.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Klitschko wins.

Haye. :rose:

[Maestro]

Talk is cheap Haye, real cheap

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Will Haye fight the other one?
I doubt it. He went for the perceived weaker brother.

[Marc Overmars]

In that case,

Haye. :rose:

Just don't turn into a junkie like Hatton.

[Maestro]

He should just retire to avoid further embarassment


I doubt it. He went for the perceived weaker brother.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

He's talking about a broken toe. I hadn't heard anything about that going in to the fight?

[Marc Overmars]

Haye talking about his bad toe. :unsure:

[Maestro]

:haha:Haye - "i broke my toe last week ...."

[Maestro]

shut up Haye, you fuckin' mug

[McNamara That Ghost...]

shut up Haye, you fuckin' mug

Pretty much. Hey he can cherish his win over Audley I suppose.

[Marc Overmars]

Booth moaning about the ref now.

:rolleyes:

[Marc Overmars]

Lennox's hat. :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

Wlad making a good point about how Haye boxed just all the other pub teamers he's faced.

So much for the gameplan David. :coffee:

[Cripps_orig]

Listened to this on the radio.

Did it look as one sided as it sounded?

[Cripps_orig]

Promoter Frank Warren believes David Haye should retire after failing in his attempt to unify the heavyweight division with a points defeat by Wladimir Klitschko on Saturday.
All three judges scored the Hamburg fight (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/14004150.stm) in Klitschko's favour.
"I think he should retire," Warren, 59, told BBC Radio 5 live's Sportsweek.
"He's got money in the bank so why does he need to fight on? He was a great cruiserweight but hasn't got it at this [heavyweight] level."


If Haye does step away from boxing then he will leave with a record of 25 wins, 23 by KO, and two losses.
The London boxer moved up to heavyweight in 2008 and opened with a win over Monte Barrett (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/7727154.stm) before beating Russian Nikolai Valuev (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/8347139.stm) a year later to take the WBA crown and become the first British boxer since Lennox Lewis to hold a world heavyweight title.
He followed those with victories over United States fighter John Ruiz (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/8602329.stm) in April 2010 and fellow Briton Audley Harrison. (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/9187329.stm) seven months later.
Warren added: "Valuev was one of the worst heavyweights and Harrison was a non-fight. The contest against Klitschko was his first defining fight in this division and I don't think he won a round.
HAYE'S HEAVYWEIGHT RECORD

Continue reading the main story (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/14005661.stm#skip_feature_02)

2008: Monte Barrett, win, TKO 5th round
2009: Nikolai Valuev, win, majority decision
2010: John Ruiz, win, TKO, 9th round
2010: Audley Harrison, win, TKO 3rd round
2011: Wladimir Klitschko, defeat, unanimous decision

"He got well beaten. He wasn't in it and didn't show up."
British former WBC champion Frank Bruno said Haye will decide for himself whether it is the right time to retire.
"I'm in no position to say that Haye should retire," the 49-year-old told Sportsweek.
"Haye will do what Haye wants to do. He'll be remembered as a very, very good cruiserweight. But heavyweight and cruiserweight are two different cups of tea. Harrods and Primark."

Read more from Ben's blog (http://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/bendirs/2011/07/haye_post-fight.html)
Haye said he would retire from the sport (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/13741467.stm) by his 31st birthday in October but former opponent Harrison believes it is unlikely he will make good on his promise.
"I'm living with the same thing now: it's very hard for me to think about retiring coming off a defeat and the way I lost," said the 39-year-old 2000 Olympic super-heavyweight champion.
"I know David's a proud fighter and I know retiring on that performance will live with him and he'll want to come back in a couple of years' time to rectify that.
"So I expect you're going to see David Haye back in the ring again just like you're going to see Audley Harrison back in the ring again."

yay

Fatton retires

Thought he did that years ago

[Cripps_orig]

FLOYD MAYWEATHER last night sensationally admitted he is ready to fight Amir Khan in England.

Khan, who meets Zab Judah tonight in a world title unification scrap, is ready to step up from light-welterweight to welterweight.

And Mayweather, who returns to the ring in September after a year out, wants a showdown with the Bolton slugger.

Mayweather, who beat Ricky Hatton in 2007, said: "Hopefully, I will fight in England to give my fans what they want over there.

"I would love to come to Wembley and fight. I don't know if Amir has enough to test me but you don't know what can happen."

This Judah guy lost of all his big fights which says a lot about him really he also lost to one or two nobodies and is well past his best.

Good win but never thought he'd be much of a threat judging from his record.

That Fury fight was one of the most enjoyable I've seen since Mayweather-Hatton, and that was a long time ago!

That 3rd round where the opponent came right back at Fury has me doubting Tyson Fury against a boxer of real proven quality, though. Smell like Audley Harrison? (although Harrison was a nob, Tyson Fury seems, to all intents and purposes, a thoroughly nice chap!)

[Cripps_orig]

[GP]

Mayweather needs to stop running scared from Pac-Man tbh.

[Cripps_orig]

Mayweather did nothing wrong.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Mayweather did nothing wrong.

the ref was not looking, but was in fact talking to somone outside the ring and hadnt called box. the ref hadnt said to restart the fight so it was wrong surely

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

mayweather did absolutely nothing wrong last night, he capitalised on 2 mistakes that ortiz made. ortiz should never have headbutted and when he did, he should have protected himself knowing floyd was mad about the headbutt.

floyd done nothing but use his experience to ko ortiz. joe cortez clearly says 'box on'. this gives the fighters the go ahead to fight. in football we are taught to 'play to the whistle', and this is no different. joe cortez then turns his back and looks at the time realising he didn't do that prior to saying 'box on'. floyd then ko'd ortiz.

if anyone is to blame its cortez for not protecting fighters, which is his number one priority in the ring. he wasnt even watching the fight when floyd swung for ortiz. how does he know floyd didnt headbutt ortiz to the floor? or high kick ortiz in the face?

ortiz was well on his way to getting ko'd in round 7 or 8 anyway, he was eating floyds right hand like a lion eating its prey.

joe cortez has always been controversial and loves the attention. its time for him to step down. otherwise one day he'll get a fighter killed in the ring.

and pacquiao beating floyd? :lol: dont make me laugh.

furys on a different planet to harrison.
fury has decent speed and actually has raw power. he's tall and has a boxing brain. audley was just a big guy turned boxer because the heavyweight division was poor and he knew he could make money due to lack of good fighters in that division.

the guy fury fought last night took povetkin - another unbeaten heavyweight touted to be the next big thing- all the way last year.
yet fury ko'd him in 5 yesterday.


that tells us fury's a decent prospect.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Nah Mayweather used his brain not his fault the other lad was slow tbh

[KESSLER]

Mayweather is such a knob.

Ortiz headbutt was wrong but what Floyd did, was just completely unnecessary. He was outclassing Ortiz but then chose to ruin the entertainment for the fans and rob himself of a legitimate win, which would of meant something. Sucker punching him proves absolutely nothing.

Amir Khan v Pub Teamer tomorrow night live on Sky

actually peterson's well respected in the boxing world. he's a very good fighter who took ortiz all the way. why khan even took this fight is beyond me, peterson got off the canvas about 4 times against ortiz and managed a draw in the fight. he was going to cause problems for khan since day 1.

should have gone for someone else, the last thing he needed was a loss.

but then again Peterson didn't actually win the fight against khan. ive yet to see one scorecard apart from the judges ones that have shown peterson winning that fight. It was a blatant hometown decision and khan has every right to be fucked off.

as for froch, he got truly outclassed but ward's a quality slick fighter so no shame in that.

Whats all the stuff going on with Amir Khan and the Pub Teamer?

[KESSLER]

Khan reckons that there was a conspiracy, beyond that of the shitty ref, involving a guy who can be seen on camera talking to and handling the scoring slips at ringside during the fight, which is illegal. They want the governing body to either rule a no contest or issue an immediate rematch since without that, the fight is unlikely to happen because Peterson has now signed with the promoters Top Rank who don't see eye to eye with Khan's promoters Goldenboy.

[Özim]

Khan and his camp are an embarrassment to the world of boxing to be honest most boxers accept defeat and move on, he lost because he's cr*p, to think he was thinking of fighting Mayweather :lol: it would have been an execution not a fight!

He's been found out a couple times now by mediocre opposition and yet he still fancies his chances against one of the great :lol:


Amir Khan says he wants to fight Floyd Mayweather by the end of 2012 following a spring rematch with Lamont Peterson.

Khan's comments come after the World Boxing Association ordered a rematch between Khan and Peterson, after the Briton claimed ringside wrongdoing.

"I have a 10-week training camp so I envisage the Peterson [rematch] to be in April or May," Khan told Sky Sports.

"But my ideal opponent is Floyd Mayweather. Hopefully I can fight him before the end of the year."

Khan said he would never fight Manny Pacquiao, whom Khan trains with, but believes a fight with Mayweather is realistic.

But the Bolton fighter remains focused on proving that his defeat by Peterson last month was illegitimate.

The WBA has confirmed the rematch will take place within 180 days of the initial bout.

"I want to get that rematch and beat him,'' Khan told BBC Sport. "I want a fair fight, somewhere neutral like Las Vegas or Los Angeles, with neutral judges and a neutral referee.

"Credit to Peterson because he fought a good fight, but I will go out there a second time and knock him out convincingly," he added.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

ROUND 11: Only three men have taken Klitschko the distance so if Chisora can get through the next six minutes, he will at least have achieved that. He has definitely given a better show than David Haye did against Wladimir. Klitscko hits on the back of the head and is spoken to by the referee and Chisora reverts back to his big swings, and misses. Vitali is back on top as we enter the final round 9-10.

No No No lads, you've got it all wrong. You do the brawl after the contract signing, and then someone goes through a table. Nice try though.

[Marc Overmars]

What a pair of idiots!

Chisora also spat water in Vitali's face before the match. Classless twat.

English boxers you got to love em

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Chisora knows he doesn't have the ability or reach to excel in this division, so decides to make as much money as possible by being a ****!.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Ghebs! :bow:

[KESSLER]

:haha:

Chisora has been acting like a dick all week .... he was obviously going to try slapping or spitting water in Haye's face had Haye not thrown the first punch.

The best bit is when Vitali is laughing his ass off at what had just happened :lol:

What a classless thug Chisora is, the guy is a total pr*ck I hope he gets taken out by his next opponet because he doesn't belong in sport.

[dazthegooner]

Thats the worst thing you can do to someone is spit in there face would rather the slap tbh digusting habit.

They're both utter tits. Hopefully it goes to Sky Box Office and it bombs.

[Marc Overmars]

Chisora has been arrested but Haye can't be found. :lol:

Yep he makes Audley look like a decent guy. And Chisora is a plank too.

[Gubby Allen]

It baffles me how people expect heavyweight boxers to behave like courteous, decent sportsmen acting with great humility.

They're not golfers, or snooker players. These are blokes of 18 stone, with little education behind them, who are going out there to beat each other to a pulp, to suddenly expect them to behave like Terry Griffiths or Arnold Palmer, seems a bit shortsighted.

It's great when you get a Bruno who's a nice guy & Lennox was always very eloquent, but they can't all be like that.

Any other sport, probably even most other weights at boxing, this last week would be completely unnacceptable but there's a bit of leeway with heavyweight boxers. I don't want them to be nice blokes who always shake hands & asks how each other's holidays were. That's for every other sport to do.

These 2 were an embaressment though, its not like people care about the sport as it is, they have made it even worse.

[GP]

Heavyweight boxing is boring as fuck.

[Marc Overmars]

It doesn't help that the Klitschkos have monopolised the division, but they're at the top on merit and it's up to the other pub teamers to sort it out.

[dazthegooner]

The heavyweight has been boring for years now and its a sad state of affairs when there was more coverage of that fight than the main event itself. Though the Kkitschko brothers cant be blamed for that they are the best of a bad bunch...

[LDG]

Heavyweight boxing is boring as fuck.

:gp:

Middleweight and Welterweight ftw, tbf, imho.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko says he wants to punish Dereck Chisora for his antics in Munich by knocking him out in a rematch.

Chisora was involved in a number of controversial incidents before and after his unanimous points loss to the 40-year-old Ukrainian on Saturday.

The British fighter first slapped Vitali at the weigh-in, then spat water in his brother Wladimir's face in the ring, and was finally involved in an instantly infamous brawl with David Haye at the post-fight press conference.

However, Chisora earned many plaudits for his performance during the bout itself, taking the dominant champion the distance and constantly fighting on the front foot.

And although Klitschko was a clear winner in the end, he has stated he still wants to give Chisora a brutal payback for his actions.

Revenge
"In spirit, I have no need for revenge, but my ego tells me that this man deserves real punishment. I want to knock him out in the ring," he told German newspaper Die Welt.

However, Klitschko's manager Bernd Boente has ruled out the possibility of a rematch, believing that calls for another bout may be his fighter's emotions getting the better of him.

"A rematch is absolutely inconceivable and won't happen," Boente said.

"Of course, Vitali has been affected emotionally, but a fight is not up for discussion and we will not offer Chisora a further platform."

Klitschko was also present at the press conference which produced the chaotic confrontation between Chisora and Haye and admitted he was shocked by what he saw.

Klitschko added: "I saw it all from the stage, I thought I was in some kind of film. Sooner or later in life a man gets his just punishment.

Low
"You can't behave like that as an athlete or as a normal person. This was lower than low, I thought it was a play act and just for show, but then I realised that it wasn't.

"He must be sick in the head, when you think of all he has done.

"The slap in the face, he spat at Wladimir in the ring, then he fought at the press conference and threatened to shoot someone.

"How can anyone behave like that? It's unbelievable, I can't believe it. What is in this guy's head? Everything I have seen of him is just a nightmare."

But Klitschko made it clear that he also has no sympathy for Haye, who claims he agreed a deal to fight the Ukrainian before talks fell apart.

"They are both cut from the same cloth. The same thing applies to him (Haye) as to what I said about Chisora," Klitschko said.

As much as i hate Vitali, he should not waste his time on that guy.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Yep the ****s should just fight each other so we can have 1 heavyweight champ not 2 or 3.

[Marc Overmars]

You could say the same for every division though, given there 4-5 belts up for grabs.

[Ollie the Optimist]

chisroa been banned indefinatly by the boxing council.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Good he's a thug

[Cripps_orig]

Amir Khan wants compulsory drug testing in boxing

Will that Peterson bloke have to give up the belts?

[dazthegooner]

He has tested possitive but does have the right to appeal I think he would be suspended until the outcome so wouldn't be allowed to fight as world champion as the organisations would have to sanction it which they wouldn't do.

[dazthegooner]

Khan now to face Danny Garcia on the 14th of July http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/boxing/18171108

oops didn't read the whole article it all depends on Khan getting one of his belts back.

http://atdhenet.tv/47279/watch-dereck-chisora-vs-david-haye

Not sure what time it'll start, but both are shit fighters, but want Chisora to KO Haye and see what excuse Haye has.

[Özim]

HAYMAKERED!

Haye outclassed him, some great skills there, better man won!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chisora. :haha:

What a dick.

[Özim]

Chisora knows he was outclassed today, Haye impressed, kept away from the big shots and finishing in style it has to be said.

[Munchies]

The Slow-Mo of Chisora getting KTFO was hilarious.

Pretty good fight to watch though.

Going to see the Khan result tomorrow, not too fussed about seeing it live. Think he'll win, but I wouldn't bet against him getting knocked out either.

[Cripps_orig]

Khan fight starting soon

[Cripps_orig]

Khan takes the first round.

Low blow by the Pub Teamer. Looked accidental

[Cripps_orig]

Khan went down from a left hook

Khan is on the ropes

Only a matter of time

[Cripps_orig]

Ref calls it

Khan is knocked the fuck out in round 4

[Cripps_orig]

Khans career is over

He wants Mayweather? No chance

I dont even know who the other dude is

[Cripps_orig]

Khan also went down in the 4th round which is when the ref called it

Garcia said he'd win in the 3rd and he was close

[Dennis]

Khan is the new Naseem Hamed........

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Khan. :haha:

He got pumped from round three onwards.

[GP]

He got smashed to bits :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I really want to see him face Mayweather now. :lol:

[Özim]

Classic, I loved the way he said he was gonna fight Mayweather next before the fight, the only thing is he forgot that he had to beat the guy before he had any chance of this pipedream.

Knocked down 3 times, outclassed and they still come out and say on the "Amir told me he wants a rematch, he said he would love to have it in England, so let's see if Danny Garcia has the heart to come over there." :lol: dream on sonny you're finished!

[Power n Glory]

Guys a fuckin fraud. Keeps your hands up, mouth shut and learn how to dodge a punch!

[Cripps_orig]

Hatton is making a comeback :lol:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

:doh:

[Kano]

he'll still be better than many of welterweight fighters out there.

but he won't get near his old self, so i don't really get what he is doing it for - apart from the money of course.

[GP]

Ricky Fatton :lol:

[Marc Overmars]

Hatton. :lol:

Awful crackhead.

Hope he gets destroyed.

[Kano]

nah he's a good guy. never fucked around acting like a dickhead showing off or anything, always grounded and just wanting to knock people out.

an exciting fighter. i just hope it doesn't all end in tears - which it probably will.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Nah hatton is finished should have stayed in retirement tbh.

[Kano]

this has all the makings of a hatton/kahn fight once ricky has had a warm up.

money wise it would set everyone up for life.

[Cripps_orig]

http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/news/4539705/Ricky-Hatton-attacked-by-dad.html

Hatton attacked by his dad :lol:

[Kano]

that's his warm up out of the way. bring on kahn.

[Cripps_orig]

Nah he says he'll fight some Pub Teamer in November and then maybe go for some Malinaggio someone :shrug:

Maybe Khan after that

[Cripps_orig]

Khan fires Roach
