David Haye faces punishment after branding Liverpool crowd "f****** retards" during press conference

[Stuarty]

You can't hold a press conference in Liverpool and not expect scousers to dish out a bit. It's what we're known for.
:

not nearly as well-known as you are for loving your nans.

I like their hair and moustaches

[Oiky]

Haye is a retard his own self

I hate it when I get crumbs in mine

[Cyclops]

Okay mate, obviously you've had bad experiences with scousers in the past. Just take a minute to relax, it's nothing personal.

well you're the one acting as though use of the word retard is disrespectful to the mentally ill

altogether now: TYPICAL FECKIN SCOUSER

Am I wrong to think that?

People with learning disabilities, which is who the term "retard" refers to, are not necessarily mentally ill.

[cocobongo]

Haye was badly rattled in the press conference, great to see.

One thing that is frustrating me with this build up is Bellew constantly saying - I am the world champ. I AM THE WORLD CHAMP and really going on and on about it.

The response should be: "Well done, you won a vacant title against a guy in his first title fight. Have you ever beaten a current world champion?"

* I know Makabu is decent enough, but it was a vacant strap due to the real world champion being injured and by god does Bellew milk this.

Yeah I'm surprised Haye hasn't said anything about this. I personally don't rank Bellew in the top 5 cruisers tbh.

My bad, that's what I meant.

Are you Shami Chakrabarti ?

He's not stupid enough to undersell the fight. I think if Haye started coming out with things like that then he's more likely to be rattled

[TheGman]

Any punishment for the people of liverpool that spat and shouted vile things to david haye???

[Sklar]

I thought Hearn's brand of boxing promotion was specifically aimed at retards?

[forcefraser]

Any punishment for the people of liverpool that spat and shouted vile things to david haye???

Of course not, cos when they do it it is the height of cutting edge humour. Only non scousers could not appreciate how witty it was.

I know some sound scouse lads, but let's have it right , nowhere in the UK do you find a more argumentative, self entitled, drama queen and wounded victim mentality than in Liverpool.

Boomer just epitomises this. His outrage about Haye holding a 5 year old copy of the sun sums it up for me.

Biggest fight city in the WUUUUURLD.... Yeah right.

Do me a favour and go and find a nan to love.

[banjo]

Apparently calling somebody a retard nowadays is as offensive as calling someone a spacker or a flid.

[forcefraser]

Wasn't Boomer having a go at Haye for swearing in front of kids?

Do kids not watch his interviews or his after fight antics? His tirade at Haye was far stronger than anything Haye came out with at the presser.

Find a nan, bang it, declare undying love for it, then ensure it kens to fight life and death, cos you aint leavin nottin in that ring.

[BigDoofus]

He was, forgetting that Derry Matthews was swearing constantly, the crowd were chanting swear words and he kept repeating "f@ck u bitch" long before Haye swore.

Scousers are good at winding people up

not nearly as good as they are at mythologising and inflating their supposed abilities

for the record there were a few people chanting 'who the fvckin hell are you?', which passes for wit in that part of the world.

C-P is onto it!

But that'd be devaluing the fight itself.

Also, Haye did brag about the Arnold Gjerjaj fight, stopping the "man with the longest unbeaten record in boxing."

I'm sure Wilder was longer at the time still

It was especially hilarious when they sung it for the 10th time.

[PredatorHayds]

The BBBoC are having a laugh here.

Hearn put on a conference open to the public, 6pm in Bellews home city. He was praying for a bit of controversy which was inevitable.

If the BBBoC like us saw this coming as soon as the conference was announced. The only reason they didn't step in to cancel/change it was they must of been hoping to get a fine in somewhere to boost the coffers.

Matchroom/Hearn/Sky/BBBoC need to take a hard long look at themselves and decide if this pantomime of Whyte/Chisora Haye/Bellew is how they want the sport to be portrayed.

Boxing is great. When this stuff happens naturally it's must watch tv. Morales/Barrera what we don't need is manufactured hatred and comings together overshadowing the hard work and graft that goes into a top level fighter.

Unbelievably, I read the report in the Liverpool Echo and this was pretty much how the article summed what happened!

[Counter-puncher]

lol @ the Echo, they know their audience clearly.

Earlier promoter Eddie Hearn had encouraged the fans get involved, saying: “Feel free to shout shout what you like at David Haye. He’s an awfully nice guy!”

what a pudendum. Camp Eddie, I mean.
