You are a bit negative though mate to be fair.

It's only a bit of fun mate. No offence intended.

I wasn't offended. I was joking because of the size of the threads.

There's a lot of hate and not much love.

Just another fight. I want to be excited, but I don't expect to be. Negative, I know, but I'm being honest. I think the pre-fight's gonna be electric, and probably the opening minute. After that, if it looks like Wlad's in control, the hype'll fade. I hope I'm wrong.

Asterix · Post by **Asterix** » 01 Jul 2011, 20:24

I'm very excited. I've been thinking about this on and off for the whole week. It has been ages since a fight has done that for me. I love the anticipation.

its god damn awsome im a mix between the top 2 answers - once those ring walks start my hearts going to be pumping! And if haye wins im out on the lash to celebrate with the 10 or so people i have coming round to watch it. Using the winnings from the bet i've placed on Haye to win by stoppage.

TheCobra · Post by **TheCobra** » 01 Jul 2011, 21:12

Very excited, biggest fight for a brit since Hatton fought Mayweather imho. I know Hatton fought Pacman afterwards, but I think most of us knew what was coming in that fight. This is exciiiiitiiing.

According the statistics, as of now, at five thirty-three a.m. in Moscow, after getting totally wasted in a bar all night and coming home and registering my vote, three out of every four Boxreckers are either So exited that they just can't hide it or about to lose control and they just might like it.

Me too.

I'm so excited I woke up at 5:45am and I can't get back to sleep

CB · Post by CB » 02 Jul 2011, 03:37

I'm up early and buzzing already.

Going to be a long day. Think I might have to take the dog on a couple of hours walk to waste a bit of time.

fornicate - ME - TODAY IS THE DAY I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO FOR YEARS!! LITERALLY!!

I'll never believe how gutted I was when I woke up on that rainy Thursday morning and put Setanta Sport News on and the breaking news tagline had said Haye had pulled out.

:(

But it's happening!

TODAY!

Anyone think I am not excited?

Buzzing!

To be honest, i couldn't give a monkeys if the fight turns out to be shite, you just can't beat a great build up!!

It won't be shite anyway and Wlad's going to be face down on the canvas!!

SWALSH · Post by **SWALSH** » 02 Jul 2011, 04:51

Will happily be doing loads of DIY Jobs today to pass the time. Watched every program on build up. Half seven order pizza crack open beers and wait. Even if it's ultra cautious start you just feel Haye has to go for it at some point, and someone will end on canvas.

Lovin it. Just got 6/1 on Haye knockout from Boylesports to add some further spice

The wife is loving it as i'm directing my nervous energy into doing things round the house. Reluctant to watch too much TV today in case I knacker the screen before the fight!

Gonna warm up with watching last nights ESPN FNF which was apparently a bit of a cracker and will probably watch some of Haye and Wlads back catalogues - I have a DVD with the Sanders and the first Brewster fights that deserves an airing!

Counter-puncher · Post by **Counter-puncher** » 02 Jul 2011, 06:39

i want to know how many times Chambers has seen the Wlad - Corrie Sanders fight in the last week.

my guess is at least 4 or 5 times

pretty fornicating excited. I can't even sleep.

Massively excited.

freddydoesdallas · Post by **freddydoesdallas** » 02 Jul 2011, 07:03

I can't believe some people are actually underwhelmed by this fight. Seriously, what more could you want from a fight?

Public demand for the fight - check
2 of the best in the division going at it - check
Trash talk and mind games in the build up - check
Majority of major belts on the line - check
2 big punchers with questions over their chin - check
Hard to call the winner, let alone method of victory

If people think the talk from Haye is what is letting it all down then imagine what Mayweather will be like when/if he takes on Pacquiao!

don't get me wrong, i'm looking forward to the fight.

just don't expect me to be wetting myself with excitement over it. I'm not as obsessed with heavyweights as most people seem to be.

it's no Pac - Mayweather.

and as for trash talk- that wouldn't even begin to make me more interested in a fight. it's kind of like saying 'why aren't you excited about film X, the trailer's amazing'. if i'm excited about the film, I'm excited about it. the trailer is just the way they are trying to sell it to me.

I'm not going to get my knickers in a knot just because one bloke pretends to be a rude loudmouth in order to make me feel there's some kind of 'genuine needle there' and the other bloke pretends to be aloof and polite and classy to provide a contrast ('ooh look they've got the guy in the white hat and they've got the guy in the black hat, well fook me someone's taken the Promoting a Boxing Match 101 course and learned their lessons well'). for the simple reason that I very much doubt it will have any effect at all on what goes on between the ropes.

I've been listening to this bullshit for 3 years and it's supposed to make me more interested in the fight? meh. personally i got bored with the oh-so edgy exciting controversial stuff about 5 minutes after it started.

Me neither, but i have to admit to being pretty excited about this fight. I've got a case of champagne, which is getting necked regardless of the result.
