Abraham, who recently stopped Jermain Taylor in the 12th round in his first bout in the [...]

By Richard Gough: I will approach my articles in a “Fair” and “Non-Biased” way, as is sometimes ignored from other so be called boxing experts and writers. With Haye on his mission to clean up the Heavyweight division, his first port of call was the supposedly weaker Klitschko brother Wladimir.

By Scott Gilfoid: I sure hope for David Haye’s sake he doesn’t back out of anymore fights in the future and waste more of his career because he’s starting to look a little old to me judging from the recent video interviews of him. Not only that, Haye is starting to look a little fat [...]

By William Mackay: David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) will be looking to pull off an upset next month in his title fight against WBA heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev in Nuremburg, Germany. Although some boxing fans see Haye as beating Valuev, a perhaps bigger portion believe that the 7-foot Valuev’s bigger size and experience will be [...]

By Brinsley Bailey: In the past the Heavyweight division was considered by fans and critics alike to be the top draw in boxing. It sparkled with marvelous talent and its champions were real celebrities (recognizable to more than just your average boxing fan). However, over the last 15 years, this division has become a barren [...]

By Jordan Stoddart: Good day Boxing fans on both sides of the Atlantic and the millions watching worldwide! I thought it would be worth covering the most topical issues on this site, taking a lighter and fresher approach to some of the stuff floating about, maybe take a different angle to alienate the biased and [...]

By Chris Williams: British heavyweight contender David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) is expecting his opponent World Boxing Association heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev to (50-1, 34 KO’s) to try and use his big size on him next month in their bout on November 7th, in Nuremberg, Germany. “I expect him to come out there and really [...]

By Philip H. Anselmo: Arthur Abraham vs. Jermain Taylor Arthur will beat Jermain over 12 decisively. Taylor will gain a personal victory by making it the 12 round distance, but will get out-hustled down the stretch, again. Abraham will open a lot of eyes after this performance. His skill-level must have been forgotten by the [...]

By William Mackay: With former cruiserweight champion David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s), he knocks out almost everyone that he faces. Fighters aren’t able to make it through a full bout with him without being stopped. Only in two cases has Haye been in a fight in which he wasn’t able to stop his opponent, and [...]

By Steven Pink: Boxing needs a healthy heavyweight division. The brazenly declarative nature of this statement does nothing to detract from what is plainly a self-evident truism. For all the excellence of Pacquiao, Cotto, Pavlik, Cabellero and Vazquez it is the sport’s heftiest practitioners that most often captivate boxing’s more casual fans. Seasoned aficionados may [...]

By Scott Gilfoid: If you listen to a lot of fans of David Haye, they like to bring up former heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield as an example of a fighter who was able to move up from the cruiserweight division and succeed as a heavyweight, capturing the IBFWBA/WBC titles. However, Holyfield doesn’t see Haye as [...]

By Aykan Tahir: When David Haye lost to Carl Thompson he was 23 years old, who as a 23 year old didn’t make a mistake? Haye landed some great shots on Thompson and saw an opening and expended all his energy going for an immediate knockout. He ended up punching himself out and leaving himself [...]

By Amar jahangir: Last night, I saw a tubby, over rated and over hyped American get absolutely slaughtered. It was clear he was a c rank fighter but due to Americans over rating him, the casual fans began believing the hype. That hype was dashed last night, as Klitschko destroyed Arreola in perhaps the most [...]

By Daniel Cann: It seems professional heavyweight boxing in Britain is going through a critical phase at the moment. When the American monopoly over the World titles has been usurped by two Ukrainian brothers and a giant Russian you would think that there is no better time than now for other nations to capitalize. The [...]

By William Mackay: British heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) unleashed his dogs of war earlier today, calling World Boxing Association heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev “Ugly.” Haye, 28, has a scheduled fight with the 36-year-old Valuev on November 7th, in Nuremberg, Germany, that is, if Haye doesn’t back out for one reason or another.

By William Mackay: British heavyweight David Haye is looking at trying to get big 6’9″ unbeaten Tyson Fury (8-0, 7 KO’s) as a sparring partner to help him prepare for his November 7th challenge of World Boxing Association Nikolay Valuev in Germany. This would be great news if Fury takes up the offer and decides [...]

By Aykan Tahir: In 2008 David Haye stated live on Setanta Sports that he would retire from the ring on his 31st Birthday. This gives him just a shade over 2 years to win and unify the heavyweight belts, not an impossible task but has Haye already burnt the bridges that would have allowed him [...]

By Jim Dower: Heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) appears already primed for a unification bout against IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, despite Haye still having to first get by World Boxing Association heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev (50-1, 34 KO’s) on November 7th in Germany. In an interview with Sky Sports, Haye came across as [...]

By Jason Kim: British heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) is anxious to get at WBA heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev, and is looking forward to fighting him on November 7th, in Germany.

By Daniel Cann: Much has been written and debated concerning David Haye’s forthcoming WBA World Heavyweight title challenge against the giant World Champion, Russia’s Nikolay Valuev. This is an intriguing contest that could have big repercussions for the World Heavyweight scene for years to come.

By Gav Bridges: As November 7th looms ever closer, inevitably more and more of the pages within this forum will start to focus on the WBA Heavyweight title fight between “The Russian Giant” Nikolai Valuev and “The Hayemaker”, David Haye. Already there have been dismissive calls about the potential of Haye in this fight, and [...]

By Chris Williams: By the time that British heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) enters the ring against World Boxing Association heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev (50-1, 34 KO’s) on November 7th, for their fight in Germany, Haye will have been out of action for an entire year. In some ways, you can say it’s been [...]

By Chris Williams: British heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) thus far hasn’t exactly impressed me in the time that he’s been a heavyweight. Granted, Haye has fought only twice at heavyweight, but both times he fought, I didn’t see the huge talent there that some of his loyal fans have been speaking about.

By Manuel Perez: Heavyweight David Haye may find himself without an opponent on November 7th, according to the latest boxing news around the world. It seems that former two-time World Boxing Association heavyweight champion John Ruiz, the mandatory challenger to the WBA heavyweight crown, isn’t going to stand by idly and allow the WBA heavyweight [...]

By that time, Haye, 28, will have been out of the [...]

By Sean Campbell: Anyone who saw the Paulie Malignaggi/Juan Diaz fight enjoyed a good, close, competitive bout, with Paulie giving the best performance of his career. But what one of the judges saw was a good, competitive fight, but not a close one. Gale Van Hoy bizarrely scored the bout 118-110 in favour of Diaz. [...]

By Chris Williams: World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight champion Vitali Kitschko (37-2, 36 KO’s) feels that David Haye is afraid to fight him and his brother IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, and is instead looking for any easier opponent in WBA heavyweight title holder Nikolay Valuev, who Haye will be fighting on November 7th. Haye, [...]

By Steven Wain: Ok before I start I would like to apologies for my previous article, it was not meant to offend anyone, it was just a hit at a one Mr Gilfoid to show anyone can write complete nonsense and yes before anyone asks I do believe Hopkins is a legend.

By Chris Williams: It’s hard to believe how quickly British heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KO’s) has disappeared in the minds of many boxing fans. Just two months ago, Haye, 28, was arguably one of the most popular heavyweights in the division, even though he had done next to nothing to establish himself as a [...]
