That's the only opponent I think. Other fights like wilder would be big but not Cardiff or Wembley big.lefty wrote:What if it was Joshua?jamesmcdonnell wrote:They'll never sell that out on Cardiff, not a hope in hell.jamesmcdonnell wrote:

Re: David Haye 10th December
It wouldn't hugely shock me. If the klitschko fight doesn't come off- Parker is probably gonna fight Ruiz jnr- so AJ is gonna be left without a dance partner. The O2 isn't a big enough venue from a financial perspective for Joshua-Haye and Wembley is out of the question until the summer to my knowledge. Cardiff seems like a good fit if everything else doesn't work out.Finn wrote:That's the only opponent I think.

Re: David Haye 10th December
Yeah, but how many fans does Haye have in Cardiff? He's a London fighter, it makes no sense. There's no way on god's green earth that you're going to get a bunch of casuals paying for tickets, travel to Cardiff and a hotel for the night.lefty wrote:It wouldn't hugely shock me.

I think you underestimate the draw for AJ-Hate, James.
Calzaghe got 40,000 didnt he.for.kessler, I'm positive AJ-Haye would do more than that

Re: David Haye 10th December
And unless I'm missing something wouldn't that be completely the wrong time of year to have a stadium fight? You could have the roof closed, but it would still be freezing. That would also have a detrimental impact on attendance figures.

Re: David Haye 10th December
I thought Hearn already said that he'd looked at the Principality Stadium in December for AJ and no dates were available?
Anyway, Haye-Joshua would definitely sell out the stadium, no problem imo.

Big Pricey v Haye as part of the AJ v Wlad undercard with winners to fight each other next spring.
Someone is getting wrapped in a cocoon of horror.

Re: David Haye 10th December
Easy, actually, current Briggs would probably win against any of the boxers Haye ever fought right now. Klitschko being the only doubtful one. Haye never really accepted a fight he hasn't pretty much won beforehand.fightfaninfrance wrote:Does Briggs do Chisora then?Rexob wrote:asdfjkl wrote: Briggs would be the best opponend he has faced ever since Klitschko...

Re: David Haye 10th December
Filth. Haye's record might be bloated with mid-level opponents but if you think that Briggs is any better, and think he would have a car's chance in hell vs Wlad you're mentalasdfjkl wrote:Easy, actually, current Briggs would probably win against any of the boxers Haye ever fought right now.
