By Scott Gilfoid: We all knew going into tonight’s fight between former WBA heavyweight champion David “Hayemaker” Haye (27-2, 25 KOs) and #10 WBA Mark De Mori (30-2-2, 26 KOs) that we were going to see a likely mismatch with Haye wiping the deck with the over-matched 33-year-old De Mori, and sure enough that’s exactly what we witnessed.
Haye needed less than a full round to take the Australian De Mori out in the 1st round at the O2 Arena in London, UK. De Mori made the mistake of throwing a slow jab with his back against the ropes. Haye immediately throw a big right hand counter of De Mori’s jab and clocked him.
