David Haye - Boring fight

Haye needed the win for his chance at a world title but his negative method was no way to get the decision - People paid good money to see an exciting fight that we are used to seeing from Haye but instead they saw what can only be described as boring - Who really cares if Haye won it by a wide margin by just picking up the rounds - The truth is he never even attempted to entertain the boxing fans, in Manchester of all places - He has a big job on his hands winning back support - Enzo fought his heart out against the same man - He hasnt proved he can go 12 rnds as far as I am concerned - Had the rounds been hard that would be different - A tough fight from 9 onwards would have done him some good instead he finished more or less as he started - Yes his opponent was tough and durable but no real threat so why not go for it and give the fans a good night - Very, very dissapointing from a previously exciting prospect - Next time he has to bring the big bombs and do the business or his ticket sales will really suffer - I didnt expect a round 1 KO but I did think he would try to get a late stoppage - Trying I think would have been enough for the fans but but what we saw was awfull - Come on David fight with all your heart just as Enzo does and get your support back.

Go to the thread titled 'Garbage' mate and I think you'll find that most people agree with you.

not sure you should be eulagising haye he is still an exciting fighter just one who fcuked up this time. He should have got this kind of fight out of the way early on insted of trying to prove to everyone how big his bollocks were and KOing everyone inside a round.

Haye can still excite I am sure but how many of those who bought tickets to see Haye perform, would you think, would do it again - The crowds booed and many walked out yet none of that changed anything, he just carried on as he had before - My wife always enjoys seeing Haye fight but by round 6 she went off to see CSI Miami saying it was the worst fight she had ever seen - As things stand I see Enzo as the better fighter we know he has the stamina and a concussive punch plus good boxing skills - Haye has the punch and skills but he still has to show he has the stamina to last in a really competetive fight - In his toughest fight to date IMO with Thompson, he proved he hadnt got the stamina
