One second someone posts that Dave should be showing undercard fights, not interviewing celebs. Then they show the undercard and lefty is in there whining that it's gonna be boring.

The more boxing that Dave shows the better as far as I'm concerned, if they wanna come in and show small hall stuff I'd be delighted.
You do realise I talk on behalf of myself and not as amalgamation of the forum? We're not one collective voice.

Haye was as fast as he needed to be. No point running laps around an almost stationary opponent. He got de Mori out of there without raising a sweat in 2 minutes. A waist of time tying to dissect it really.

There is a punchbag in my gym which would have been a tougher opponent for Haye. It gets really slippery and becomes unpredictable.

On a more serious note:

1) DeMori....top 10 ranking with WBA. How? I mean really how?

2) How much for tickets and does anyone know anyone that went? I usually know at least a couple who go to shows but I've literally no knowledge of anyone going to this.

3) Paul Dempsey and the Chuckle brothers aside, does anyone know a bloke with a fringe?

Watch out for 2 minutes of adverts if it makes the end of this round, or if it doesn't.

Haye was as fast as he needed to be. No point running laps around a heavy bag. He got de Mori out of there without raising a sweat in 2 minutes.
True but he's going to need that extra speed if he fights Joshua/Fury, etc. Big guys who are quick aswell. Being a smaller guy and ponderous isnt going to work out too well for him.

de Mori's ranking was a joke. Somehow King, when he was de Mori's promoter, got de Mori ranked, and as he continued to beat poor opponents and retain that ranking.

I honestly don't think de Mori ever fought, let alone beat, a top 100 fighter.

In summary, de Mori's ranking was a joke!

Good fight, anyway. Shame most viewers will have switched off because they have took so long to indicate there was more to come.

Thanks Dave Haye for that hilarious farce, what a pantomime, with Benedict cumberbach gazing in awe from ringside. And Ronald McDonald commentating what a windbag thank God it was over inside a minute :lol:

Keithmoonhangover went, I'm sure he will tell you how much he paid for the ticket if you ask nicely.

Ringside tickets were £1200. All it proves is that there's 16,000 mongs in London with far too much money in their pockets.

Apparantly demand was so high for tickets tonight that Frank Sinatra was working as a ringside photographer for the Metro

I'm struggling to think of a less deserving top 10 ranking.

I mean, the bloke learned to box primarily by watching YouTube footage of James Toney's defensive skill. He must've watched Toney's MMA fight.

Daniel Larruso started out in karate by learning it from a book. Luckily for him he learnt how to paint fences and polish cars. Net result....a big trophy.

DeMori needs for his mom to get a job in California.
