I am just wondering, a question for the boxing historians - how many "firsts" will this would Haye have should he beat Klitchsko.

He will be the first Brit to win a Cruiser and Heavyweight world title - I am not counting Johnny Nelson's WBF/WBU titles.

He will not be the first Brit to WIN the Heavyweight title in foreign soil - Bent, Lewis at least beat him.

Will he be the first Brit to challenge and win two world titles abroad? If not, will he be the first to do it at 2 different weights?

Hatton regained IBF light-welter title in Las vegas and won WBA welter in Boston
