HOBSON PULLS OUT BEFORE HAYE DOES

boxingchat · Post by **boxingchat** » 04 Oct 2005, 06:09

Hobson is out with Shingles, which saves Haye pulling out through cowardice. What a waste of time these two are. Another Sky show will be cancelled, what is the matter with these people?

Peter Oboh will offer to save the day and Haye will run a mile.

How come it's always friggin shingles, I cannot recall one occasion where a US fighter has pulled out with shingles.

Is there some sort or shingles epidmic or a specific strain which affects fighters? Perhaps they are having unprotected sex with one another.

Good point about the Yanks. I know a few people who have had it though including 2 members of my family, it aint pretty.

boxingchat-how do you know this?

I've had shingles, it's fornicating horrible, Hobson has my sympathies if he really is suffering. Haye's camp will have a field day with this after the fuss Aston made about his injury

James how many others can you think of that have had shingles recently, I've got Danny Williams (bullshit could he still fight) and Esham Pickering.

Twats!! Willliam Hill better give me a refund!!

A lucky escape for Haye!!

Kilburn · Post by **Kilburn** » 04 Oct 2005, 06:49

Herbie Hide and Wayne Alexander are 2 more, I'm sure there's been a heap of others.

Buggery bollocks.

I know two guys who've had shingles in the last 4 months. Maybe they're in the same swingers group as Hobson, Hide and Pickering.

But it's no joke, it's a thoroughly unpleasant ailment.

If only this was a Sports Network show, and Haye and Hobson were SN fighters. Then Hobson would have been tragically struck down and on his deathbed but still trying to be fit for the fight, and Haye would be gutted and calling out J-M Mormeck (who would duck him)

Can you imagine the press release Haye will put out now? He was bad enough yesterday!!

Gutted though, this was the domestic fight I was looking forward to above all others. Maybe Frank will offer to let Enzo step in? Yes, well maybe not.......

They are trying to get Hobson to give up commonwealth so Haye can fight Swaby.

How can that be sanctioned after swaby's performance in a 4 rounder the other week?

Hobson is definitely ill, but Haye and his mob will give it heaps now after the stick they got when the first fight was pulled.

Herbie Hide is fighting at cruzer weight now right

maybe he should step in

Foggy · Post by **Foggy** » 04 Oct 2005, 07:48

Surely Haye wouldnt face Hide, even though Hide may have a glass chin you'd fancy Hide to KO Haye if he connected properly, dont think Haye would want that fight. Someone last week on this forum was saying Haye wanted an EBU title fight, maybe this can happen now, hopefully on Hatton - Maussa undercard.

jamesmcdonnell · Post by **jamesmcdonnell** » 04 Oct 2005, 07:56

A fit and tuned Hide would knock his block off in my opinion.

I'm not saying Hobbo isn't ill, I just wonder why Shingles seems to affect so Many British fighters. No I cannot remember names, but there's been a few claims of shingles in recent years.

How many sporting contests generally in this country fall through at the last knockings due to flu/injury/shingles/bilharzia/beri-beri/amoebic dysentry/elephantitis/dengue fever/uncletomcobbleyandallitis?

It just seems to me that in this country there are a disproportionate number of contests which are called off at the last moment, who could forget last year, surely the annus horribilis for contests falling through.

Could sky not show fight if they get a replacement for Hobson?

Quite interesting, as a Haye pullout seemed almost inevitable then Hobson pulls out!
