Is Haye going to raise a sweat tonight?

David Haye challenges for his first pro title tonight against Lincoln's Tony Dowling for the vacant English cruiserweight crown.
I get the feeling we're going to see a much sharper Haye than we did against Lolenga Mock last time out. David needed a good, hard fight like the Mock one to prepare him for a step up. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me at all if this is all over inside two rounds tonight...

Bennie - Good call!!

A lot of people were down on Haye after the Mock fight and talk of him "not being as good as we thought" were suddenly commonplace.

I wouldn't be surprised if his opponent receives the "backlash" of the Mock fight tonight.

Haye KO3

All over in a couple of rounds.

Am I the only one who thinks Delaney was a bit of a step too far too quick?

James - Haye would have won.

Though I "assume" your relating to how easily? Delaney would have been a tougher fight for Haye, though Haye's class would have told.

Tonight will be a workout for Haye, and the first step in what I still believe will culminate in a world champion level career.

probably end in the first or second,

maybe haye wants to prove prove a point and get a early KO, then tell the bbc what he wants in 2004,

No, James. Check out the thread: "Garry Delaney - LOLOL!!"

The Delaney fight would've been good, I've never even seen the guy but the ad had me convinced "Ahm owled skewull" I half expected him to bring a billiard ball in a sock to the ring and them bum Haye in the greenhouse after the fight.
