    His next fight 'lets go champ' a bit more interesting mind
    He was looking to go down it was an absolute disgrace, no wonder his fights get shown on the comedy channel

    [QUOTE=gavpowell;890800]Valuev had no business having the crown in the first place, having lost it to Chagaev and only got it back by the WBA duplicating the title and deciding to give one to him and one to Chagaev, then taking Chagaev's away because Don King. Haye's performance

    He showed some good qualities in his calm under pressure, decent chin and threw some lovely uppercuts, but this was a guy supposedly ready to bulldozer the entire division.
    I watched it last nighttoo... , I don't take any notice of silly hype, I mean people saying he's going to bulldozer the division before he fought anyone that actually hit him back is just nonsense. He showed some capability last night, being hurt and answering on numerous occasions.. it wasn'tgreat but showed that the hw division is improving no end..

    He only has to improve his ranking because nobody takes him seriously anymore -he got at least two chances at the Klitschkos without fighting anyone at heavyweight and just talking.

    He was a wonderful cruiserweight but a complete fraud at heavyweight, said one thing and did the opposite.

    He can't get a fight with anyone in the top 5 at the moment because they're all tied up, but he doesn't have to fight knockover jobs, he just wants to, which is why he's fighting Briggs next. Briggs has been nothing special for years now, but talks a lot so gets chances he doesn't deserve. He's not going to do any damage against Haye though.

    It wasnt bad, not bad at al. :boxing:

    What made me laugh though is Parker coming in with no less than 6 belts... they just hand belts out for every fight I think these days.. lol

    It's good stuff, I haven't seen the hw division buzzing so much for many many years....
    Yeah that was a good match up - very enjoyable here is a bit of it

    It speaks volumes about him bud..

    He never even tried to make it last, it's all about him see. No care about giving the crowd anything in any of the fights, Last night showed him to be everything he exactly is.

    I'm disgusted. It's not on....

    I don't respect him for doing it but he cant just jump in with AJ or Fury he has to improve his ranking and these last two guys did have long unbeaten records so guess that's why they credible-ish?

    But yeah as boxing events go 16 thousand in the O2 did not really get value for money. He did what he needed to and credit to Haye for giving 10 per cent of his earnings to Blackwell but yeah shocking opponent and maybe its just that there aint that many good heavyweight fighters out there anymore to justify four divisions?

    Well, if you can respect him for that then that's up to you.. yeh, the casuals lapped it up...

    He's a joke, see how chuffed he was to win. He should be embarrassed not chuffed..
