I wonder if David Haye will turn up to the weigh in with a load of skin head friends and sing
'ohhhhh ahhhhhh Enzo Mac I said ohhhh ahhhh Enzo Macc'
when Hobson is on the scales.

Hobson looked a wreck at the weigh-in. A drunk, bitter and overweight one at that. I'd give Norton a very, very good shot at winning this fight. I'm not sure how in love with the sport Hobbo is anymore.
Shame Haye couldn't have done both Enzo and Hobson on the same night. He woulda done, too - probably even at the same time.

Not sure how much in love either are in with the sport before.
The most overdue Mandatory in recent times?

Norton told me he knows how to beat Hobson this time around. It remains to be seen, but i like Rob's chances if the Hobson of the first Buster Keeton fight turns up.

Sorry James but you'll have to explain the joke
What did happen at a previous weigh-in. I must have missed that one.

is THAT who that loudmouth idiot baiting Haye at the weigh in was? If it was Hobson that's embarrassing behaviour for a pro boxer right there.
The guy sounded like a drunken moron "Carl Thompson, go on Carl...nice nipples David"

Nah, that wasn't Hobson. Just a retarded mate of his who got chucked out. Hobson was every bit as drunk and was the one shouting 'he's just a bully, Enz' and 'look him in the eye'...as if that made a bit of difference
Such a shame Haye never got the chance to blast Hobson once and for all back in the day.
