Mark De Mori

Haye bragging about how he’s going to KO De Mori

by

haye55By Scott Gilfoid: David Haye (26-2, 24 KOs) has a soft opponent he’s facing in Mark De Mori (30-1-2, 26 KOs) on January 16th, and he’s now bragging about how he’s going to KO the guy when they face each other at the O2 Arena in London, UK. The fight supposed to be televised on DAVE.

For Haye’s sake, he had better hope he’s able to KO De Mori, because he could wind up getting knocked out by him if he lets him hang around for a long time. I mean, Haye is a former cruiserweight, and he’s not really built to be taking head shots from a heavyweight, even a mediocre one like De Mori.

I’ve seen some of De Mori’s fights, and he pretty much doesn’t impress me at all. He looks like a part time bodybuilder more so than a fighter, and he’s not exactly the fastest guy in the ring.

Haye can’t afford loss to De Mori

by

1-Haye De Mori O2 ArenaBy Scott Gilfoid: Former two division world champion David Haye (26-2, 24 KOs) figures that he’s at least two fights away from a potential clash against unbeaten British/Commonwealth heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua (15-0, 15 KOs).

Haye thinks the fight is possible in 2016 against Joshua if they both win their next two fights, but he’s not sure if Joshua will go after a world title soon. Joshua could try and fight the winner of the Charles Martin vs. Vyacheslav Glazkov fight for the IBF heavyweight title. Joshua is also ranked #2 by the WBC.

David Haye not worried about Tyson Fury

by

haye3333By Scott Gilfoid: David Haye (26-2, 24 KOs) says he’s not worried at all about IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 19 KOs) in coming back to the sport after being outside of the ring for 3 ½ years. Haye wants to win world titles and he’s targeting unbeaten British/Commonwealth champion Anthony Joshua as someone he feels will give him a good test.

As for Fury, Haye acknowledges that there’s no way the two of them will fight because Fury has already said he won’t give Haye a chance to fight him because of his bad experiences in the past when attempting to face him in 2013.

Haye suffered two injuries that wiped out fights with Fury. Because of the bad experience Fury had with Haye, he’s not going to give him the time of day. Fury says he’ll even vacate his heavyweight titles if forced to defend against Haye.

Haye looking past De Mori, wants Joshua fight

by

haye4By Scott Gilfoid: In something has to make you question British heavyweight David Haye’s motives for making a comeback, he is already looking past his next opponent Mark De Mori (30-1-2, 26 KOs) towards a hoped for clash against British/Commonwealth heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua in 2016. Haye faces De Mori next month on January 16th at the O2 Arena in London, UK.

Haye, 35, says he’d like to fight the unbeaten 6’6”, 245lb Joshua by the summer of 2016 if possible. This would mean that Haye would likely only have time for his one tune-up fight against the 33-year-old De Mori before he’d go straight into a clash against Joshua in the summer.

David Haye wants Tyson Fury fight

Haye, 35, says he’s going to work his way into the No.1 mandatory spot for one of Fury’s three major titles, and either force him to defend the belt against him or vacate the title to avoid him.

Haye has already heard that Fury say that he wants nothing to do with a fight against him or WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder now that he’s holding three of the four heavyweight titles.

David Haye faces Mark De Mori on 1/16

by

1-Haye v De Mori 2

By Scott Gilfoid: As of Tuesday, David Haye (26-2, 24 KOs) has revealed that he’ll be fighting in the next couple of months against #10 WBA heavyweight contender Mark De Mori (30-1-2, 26 KOs) in a comeback fight on 1/16 at the O2 Arena in London, UK.

For a rust ridding fight, this is a decent contest for Haye, because he’s facing a top 10 contender. A lot of heavyweights that have been out of the ring for as long as the 35-year-old Haye has wouldn’t have agreed to face a guy ranked in the top 10 like De Mori, even though he’s totally untested as a contender.
