Anyone know anything about his opponent? Any good? Any chance of winning?

Yeah... It's on Skysports 1 22.00 Oct 14

David Haye v Vincenzo Rossitto

I don't know too much about this Vincenzo Rossitto, he's never fought outside of Italy.

I'm sure i remember him fighting Pietro Aurino on Eurosport ages ago, he isn't much cop from what i recall and Haye should win comfortably. It seems when these Italians get to a certain career point they start leaving home for final paydays before they retire.

So, I take it people think this should be a relative straightforward win for Haye?

He is on level with Rüdiger May, just not as boring.

Its an okay as a substitute fight, would have prefered his countryman Frogomeni - but it could be alot worse.

I agree this isn't bad for a substitute, would have been interesting had they drafted in someone like Jorge Castro, Haye needs fights to get him rounds i feel and a guy like Castro could do just that.

BBBoC would have probably rejected him !

Yeah i couldn't believe when they deemed him an unsuitable opponent for Macarinelli when Enzo shared a ring with the likes of LaMontagne and Earl Morais.

You bet they would have rejected him, remember its only a few months ago he was almost killed in a motorcycle accident.
