Haye v Fury is on. Press conference this Thursday . Boom

All the nah sayers must be feeling pretty stupid now when they was saying Fury wouldnt dare to even sign to fight Haye and that he would duck him and go sign to fight someone else

Great news. The build up for this one is going to be memorable.

x2 ... cant think of many fights that could produce the out of the ring stuff that this one can. Saying that though, Haye might be wary of getting too involved after the Chisora stuff.

Got a feeling that the build up to this fight will be better than the fight itself. Cannot see anything other than a Haye win by KO.

I cant see Haye trying to pull that Chisora crap on the Furys ,..if he tried to bottle fury he wouldn't leave the press conference alive, that i am more certain of than the outcome of this fight

That would be even more entertaining

It would be very unwise to let them go head to head. It might be all Hype to Haye but Fury is young and highly strung. If it does kick off, his full family would definitely be all in regardless of security or tv cameras. It is not a Chisora situation.

That in itself would be worth the cost of a ticket or PPV

I guaranty you now they would be jumping up and down on David Hayes head

What will be interesting is if Haye uses James Thompson as a bodyguard , Because of what Fury said about UFc champion Cain Velasquez,Thompson has been making videos calling Fury out for an MMA fight

Really? Doesn't Haye have the likes of James Thompson ( MMA ) in and around his camp? Not sure they are the type to get intimidated by the whole traveller thing.

I can't see a Chisora situation developing mainly because Fury and Haye are generally decent blokes. I also think they don't mind each other. There will be plenty of chat no doubt but all part of the build up.

Chisora is a bit of a twat and borderline thug if we are being honest!

Pleased its on.

The build up will be entertaining that's for sure!

Not sure the actual fight will be though! One thing is for sure, Fury will give it 100% and if he loses, will go out on his shield.

Suckers

Pleased it's on, don't think I've looked forward so much to a mismatch before. Haye within 3 rounds MAX

Biggest fight in British boxing ever that did not have a title on the line, can't wait and I'll pay for ppv no problem at all

I'm Fury's #1 fan and I'll be cheering him on, but even I think Haye is gonna knock him out.

What about those titles Haye won in his fight with Chisora? If not I'm sure one can be made up...!

Fury on points - A good big guy always beats a good little 'un.

Fury has to box and use his reach and strength to frustrate Haye.

Haye has had 20 rounds in 3 years. The rust will be there

When do tickets go on sale?

Also where is the best seats, in the 80 quid bracket located

Inactivity may play a part.

Do you honestly see Fury and Haye being of a similar quality then? Simply size will make the difference?

I think if Fury was 6'2 he would do well to win a British title. Haye is clearly the more talented.

What TV platform is it on?

Haye is more athletic and hits harder; I'm not sure I've seen him box southpaw and win a fight though as Fury did to Rogan - that showed courage and versatility. Fury is a full time boxer and Haye a part time; Haye will have to train into condition; Fury will be in decent shape already and will work on a strategy; this won't be as one sided as people imagine.

Am i right in thinking they will earn around 5 million each?--No wonder then that Fury is not ducking Haye. I would do it for 5 million.

I take all that on board and some points, Haye's inactivity for example are bang on.
Boxing southpaw against a woefully overmatched opponent isn't impressive to me. Haye is more athletic, hits harder, has faster hands, better footwork, is more elusive and has a better defence than Fury. Fury looks to have more stamina though and again, that could play a part.
Fury's chances lay in his size, toughness and stamina. When it comes to actual technique, quality, talent etc Haye is in a different league.

As I say, make these two the exact same size and its not even a contest. That shows who is the more talented of the two.

It's an intriguing fight but personally I think Haye will probably take him out early doors.
