Do you think he will box again? I was in a corner shop in Northallerton yesterday and the owner said Haye was finished? Reckoned some bloke in the area told him....Spud wrote:

I think this is correct Haye had to take a few punches off Chisora to get his win, where Fury totally dominated Chisora from the first bell and didn't get touched all night an easy win for Fury.
Yes, not hard to beat an ambling punch bag.Finn wrote:Fury was impressive but it's fair to say chisora didn't turn up that night.

I thought it was a cold/flu type thing? There were definitely loads of rumours beforehand - I remember telling one of my mates not to bet on Chisora due to all the noises around his illness. In hindsight, maybe I should have charged him for my assistance, saved him a good bit of money there...jamesmcdonnell wrote:Yes, not hard to beat an ambling punch bag.Finn wrote:

What exactly was he sick with?
It's a slow news week.azzman wrote:5 pages of Boxrec posts means that Haye is still relevant.
You watched his fights with Valuev and Wlad right? Hardly explosive performances from Haye.PredatorHayds wrote:I can't think of any more exciting heavyweights on there day.
Can't see him fighting again though. With Joshua getting more popular Haye will slowly fade to obscurity.

Take any HW discussion and someone will bring up David Haye out of blue. I think he will stay "relevant" until there is one Haye fan alive.palooka wrote:It's a slow news week.azzman wrote:5 pages of Boxrec posts means that Haye is still relevant.
