Ive never been to a fight where there has been trouble and ive been to loads over the years but I think this one has all the ingredients for a mass brawl. Also 2, While I think Haye will win inside 2 or 3 rounds my only concern is the length that Haye has been out of the ring. Will he have a warm up fight? no way. Thats my only other concern for Haye. I expect coppers all over the damn place and a lot of shop lifting.

Such a bullsh!t post on all levels. How many live fights have you actually attended? I know for some reason you have a thing for Haye and Manchester but do you attend others? In my years watching pro boxing the worst trouble I have seen is at The NEC in Birmingham when fans of Rob McCracken and Steve Foster rioted and ended up on the front pages. Henry Wharton, one of the biggest ticket sellers of the nineties and a traveller, was on the undercard, none were involved. I have stood in a bar with about 50 Jimmy Vincent fans been goaded by Michael Jennings fans, again, no trouble... Been to several Levi Pattison, Jesse James, James Lowther, George and Reg Robshaw fights without a single incident. I have seen Haye twice, once in Huddersfield when there was hardly anyone there and once in Hamburg when there was thousands, mainly of the "lad" (wannabe) variety. If some coked up poser starts tormenting a group of gypsy men he may well get chinned, don't get me wrong, but I would be more concerned going to a Khan fight. If your scared, don't go, have another dance in that tittybar and save your cash.
