Really looking forward to this one.

As said, Haye is unique in being exciting at the larger weights.

I'm hoping going up in weight will noly add to the effects of the 'Hayemaker'.

When's it due to start? Main event that it.

Pencilled in for 11pm. I'd keep an eye on it though.

Forgot about this fight!

Looking forward to it now though

Haye is in cloud cuckoo land believing he could beat either of the Klitschko brothers.

Good first round for Haye landing a couple of decent shots early on in the round

He could have creamed this yank in 2.

Offensively he is ready for the Klitschkos.

Defensively is a worry. He has said it himself he doesn't have much of a chin, so he should really work on fighting with his gloves in front of his face.

I don't care what you're style is, when you're not throwing a punch, there's no better place for them to be.

Great performer though and always comes across as a good bloke too. Explosive power and it doesn't look like he's lost any speed going up to his natural weight.

Looks like it'll go ahead with one of the Klitschos too. Probably Vitali.

I actually felt embarrassed watching his ring "enterance".

Feck knows how he felt in front of 20k people and millions at home.

Apart from that it was a nothing fight. Haye will need to be 20 times better with his ballence and defence to beat Vit or Wlad.

Yeah, course he is.

The Klitschko brothers wont have fought anyone like David Haye before and I bet neither will be particularly looking forward to it either.

I thought it was a great way to throw his name onto the table for a potential world title fight in June. I personally think it is to early for that and someone like Rahman would be a better option first, rather than going straight in for the Klitschko brothers but you cant knock his confidence.

David Haye is potentially the best thing to happen to the heavyweight division in a long time and I am genuinely excited by what I saw tonight.

Couldn't agree more mate!

Just have a slight worry as has been pointed out earlier about having his hands so low and his ability to resist a big punch. I'd also like to see him do a bit more work behind a jab.

You can't knock him though, he goes in there and gets the job done in spectacular fashion and is as exciting as anyone out there at the minute and as has already been proved you cannot question his heart or determination.

Onwards and upwards.

I said to the missus I would never follow any other boxer in the States after watching Ricky there 4 times, but have to say I don't think I'd think twice about following Haye over there in the future if it came about.
