just watched this,pretty easy win for him.
the heavyweight division is becoming a 1 horse race with a poss effort from Haye,who i feel is not ready for a man of Klitschkos size.

Shame there is not a Lennox waiting in the wings


thoughts?

I think the heavy weight divisions been dead since the end of Tyson and Holyfield to be honest. Lewis was never that good, he only beat a couple of big names, Tyson was already past it when they fought, put a young tyson against a young Lewis and there is only one winner. Unfortunately i dont think Haye will amount to much, i do like watching both of the Klitchko's though.

I think the best boxing at the minute is around the lower weight limits. I loved Hatton, his fights are always good, he is broken now though and shouldnt fight again imo.

A young Lewis did beat a young Tyson in Canada in an amateur fight,then when Lewis was offered the chance to fight Tyson if he fought and beat Ruddock.
Ruddock was feared by a lot of boxers and when Lewis disposed of him in short shrift Tyson and King backed off spectacularly and ended up giving him 4/5mill as a result.

Lewis was quality and got better as he got older.

Hatton is shot and had no chance fighting Mayweather/Pacman so should retire as he has nothing else to prove

I think Haye has all the tools to turn into a Lewis type fighter,people go on about his chin like he's some glass jawed amature if that was indeed the case then Jean-Marc Mormeck (who is also stepping up to HW) would've finished him when he had the chance(what a fight that was),that fight for me was when Haye grew up and showed his real potential.

I feel Haye has too much speed for a slow slugging Klitschko (either of them) and unlike the dross the 2 brothers have been fed Haye has real KO power and is not to be underestimated,the best thing for HW boxing would be Haye taking out both brothers,they would only fight him if he agreed to fight the pair of them which says alot more than they would admit in public.


this was taken just after the fight was talked about so believe me when i say the Haye we'll be seeing fighting for a HW title will be bigger,better,faster and harder.
I am slightly biased as the HW division has died on its arse.

As for Lennox never being that good Total Bollocks in his prime Lennox was as good a heavyweight as there as ever been,but my all time favourite was and always will be Iron Mike it's just a shame he was slightly mental & Don fucking King managed to get his grubby little hands on him.

I agree about Hatton he needs to retire if only to stop the embarrasing cliche he's turned himself into,i followed him right from the amatures loving everything about the lad but i hatre to say this all he manages to do for me now is make me cringe,he was a great entertainer but sadly he lacked that little extra needed to mix it with the real Champs.

They never had an actual fight in the amateurs did they? I thought they just had a sparring match, and from what i remember they both just bloodied each other up a bit.

All I can say is the heavyweight division is so boring. I watched the first 3 rounds via Skamp's link and turned it off :/

The champ destroyed him but yup the heavyweight division stinks.All the attention are in the lower divisions and now that mayweather is back we should have an A level fight between him and Manny Pacquiao . Who do you guys think would win?
