Good for him.

That's money for old rope

Must be nice to get a Million when you could've had basically just as easy a time if you were fighting a guy with no arms.

The shots Haye landed on Gjergjaj reminded me of the ones Mercer landed on Morrison

Yep.

It's called Priizefighting. I think Haye has done a fantastic job of promoting these two events.

Yes he has. As serious boxing fan we can see through the hype. But you have to give Haye credit. He's a bloody marketing genius...... he knows how to make money and get attention. Even the Dave tv thing is genius. Gets see n on free Tv and even gets coverage because he's using a new channel. Gets paid well. Gets column inches. Picks perfect opponents who sound threatening but are as dangerous as a peanut butter sandwich. Gets paid a million for whacking out bums that wouldn't win a regional amateur title.

Sorry, but from a business angle, I'm super impressed.... he's selling to the casual and doing a great job.....

Agree reggae and I'm pretty sure the longer game hes playing with an AJ fight will come off and he'll walk off into the sunset with a pile of cash etc

He'll lose the AJ fight. He's shown clear evidence of a lack of humility, and no heavyweight should bother entering the ring with AJ ('shut up') if he hasn't got some serious fucken humbles, fam.

I don't believe he earned a million. If he did then he's a lot smarter than I give him credit for....

Nice one Haye, Hes got a good business head on his shoulders. I have no worries about that.

The Dave coverage was pretty lousy. They kept losing sound.

I'm always glad to have boxing on freeview, rather than divvy Pay-Per-Views on Sky. However, I wish Dave would put proper boxing on and not Haye knocking out nobodies in front of his wanky celebrity mates.

£50k a punch thrown?

Nice work if you can get it.

Unfortunately I agree with what you are saying !

He loves himself that much he probably thinks that the channel is even named after him !

I bet he can't wait to go on Soccer AM next week and go on about what a tough challenger etc. etc.

Nice, fairplay can't knock business sense.

He complete fooled the crowd in attendance too. They were all cheering "who are ya" at the opponent and cheering Haye's every punch, rather than booing in disgust at the extent of the mismatch.

Why would they buy a ticket to a mismatch and then whine about it being a mismatch?

They'd be far bigger mugs if they booed him.

Good on him.

I would fight Arnold Whathisname for a million quid too, especially if he fell over to order from arm punches & jabs!

Is that Haye's opponent for Haye Day IV?

Imagine where we would be now if Hayemaker Promotions and Setanta had survived.
