The RedCafe Boxing Thread

I guess the only big money match left in heavyweight boxing is the brothers fighting each other.
 
Gibson is decent, Murray is very good, Haye is a good boxer but not as good as he thinks
and he got battered today

coming out with those excuses was pathetic
delaying the entry by 10 minutes was annoying
watching him get battered was great fun
 
Why are they saying Booth is 'blaming the referee'? He clearly didn't 'blame' him, he said he had no problem with the decision but that the count was ridiculous which it was.
 
Gibson is shit!

Murray is shit!

Haye is shit!

Some guys here are pathetic........do it better than these guys then you can say "Gibson/Murray/Haye is shit"!!!!

A bit of perspective needed there. I doubt anyone is claiming Haye is shit at boxing, and that any of us can do better. But, he is a professional boxer, he pushed for this fight and talked an almighty amount of shit leading upto it. On the day, he didn't perform, and was shit compared to his opponent.

Yes it was, but at that stage the ref should realyl have taken a point off Haye for diving. So it makes no difference
 
Hope Haye goes out fighting. Now's definitely not the time to retire when he still has a point to prove.

Klitschko. Well he isn't very good to watch but he's effective. I'd have liked to see him take more damage than that.
 
Klitch comes across very well. I like him
He is gutted he didnt get his 50th

Oh come on. I don't think anyone here is claiming they could do better, if they are then ignore them. These guys are professionals, and in the case of Haye, is someone who was mouthing off about this for a long time now and when it came to walk thee walk he folded.

Haye was terrible today. Not saying I could do better of course but for all the build up he's said on his own and his past record, he was terrible. Its more disappointment on behalf of everyone that there was hardly a fight
 
I'm not sure what Lennox looks like, but it's definitely not normal.
 
Classy guy Klitschko, been impressed by how he handled himself.

Not a big boxing fan, but when is Mayweather vs Pacquaio?

This is the only fight I want to see, I think Mayweather is fighting someone soon but he did say he wants Manny next. I hope this happens but I'm not confident.
 
Corrie Saunders destroyed Vlad...however, he was a lot bigger than David Haye. I suspect Haye was too scared to over commit, but it was Haye's only chance of beating Vlad.

But it proves the heavyweight division is a joke when a cruiserweight was seen as the saviour of heavyweight boxing.
 
Complaining about the count is no better than whining that about not getting a throw in after you've lost three nil.

It's so frustrating. I'm just frustrated. It's frustrating. I could explode. I needed to explode.
 
Hilarious that Sky fecked the PPV up and told complainers on twitter to find their nearest pub.
 
They all slagged Steve McClaren for it but Vlad gets under a brolly after beating the shite out of Haye and no one bats an eyelid.
 
Everyone would have thought it was jolly British fun toodle pip, if Schteeev hadn't lost the bloody game.
 
Quality performance from Wlad, and a deserved win. Most entertaining fight he has been in, in years. The toe nonsense is just that.

My arse he is.

You can always count on Peturd to say something stupid.
 
Heavyweight boxing is in a sad sad state right now. The entrance crap was embarrassing, the fight was shite, Haye didn't really show himself in the best light, pre, post or during fight.

The HBO team were ripping Haye apart and were laughing at him by the end.

A lot of the older heavyweights would have eaten up this current lot alive.

He won't have to worry about too many more defeats like that now that he's going to work with a really top player in Andy Reid.
