Likewise, couldn't believe it when he said that. Said he was going to retire at 31 and have 4 more fights or so. I suppose he just wants to go out in his prime instead of fade away like so many heavyweights do.

Just realised he said 4 fights and not 2 like I thought, so that's not too bad.

[BoneDog]

Tomorrow? Isn't it 2 weeks tomorrow 24th April?

for the past couple of days I've been looking forward to that fight, really thought it was tomorrow! Don't know where I got that idea from

[BoneDog]

Great scrap this one is! I'd off fell over 5 or 10 times by now with exhaustion.

Feel sorry for Sprott tonight, he put alot into it and was excellent and deserved the win.

[Edmund]

I really hope that a fight against Haye doesn't come around. Would be a total waste of time I think.

Yep, especially if he's only going to fight 4 more times.

Yeah that was a decent fight.

I was really worried for Sprott when he was down. Took a while to come back around.

Great KO but Audley is still a chump.

Yep, unlike the others I'd actually like to see him fight Haye just to see him on his arse inside a minute.

I'd be happy to see that too. I remember seeing him in London once and there were people asking him for autographs, he refused and sped off in his hummer laughing.

I miss Danny Williams, wish he was fighting for this tonight.

Earlier on I read he's fighting Sexton next. I love that grime riddim Sexton comes out to, easily the best entrance music

Can't remember Sextons entrance, just tried to find it but there's no videos.

Danny says this is his last fight, bit gutted cos he was my favourite British heavyweight for a few years.

I like Sexton but hope Danny wins and goes out on a high. Just read that if he wins he will be the first heavyweight to win the Commonwealth belt 3 times.

Anyone staying up for the Berto fight tonight?

2AM Sky sports 1

Should be a good encounter

[BoneDog]

Yeah I'm watching it. Thought it was over in the 5th just but not quite!

It's entertaining stuff.

Good win, you could tell the ref was about to step in and stop it.

There was a great uppercut knockdown earlier on in another match, can't remember who it was though!

[Edmund]

I've only heard it once when he fought Rogan. Had a quick look but couldn't find it, all the videos only have Rogans entrance. I'll have a root around later and post it if I can find it.

Wladimir just released this today on his youtube channel.

[Samilktray]

Haye would probably get knocked the fuck out, I'm not surprised hes avoiding the fight

Quality message and what a fight if/when it goes ahead. I think it will be too much for Haye.

It's the other way round

The only reason why he pulled out was because of an alleged injury but it's blatantly down to financial issues which they couldn't agree on.

Ahh right, not really a great follower of the Heavyweight decision, still from what I've seen I've a feeling Haye would get beat.

[Edmund]

I meant to post this video. Always makes me laugh.

[Darkzzz_]

Haye isn't the only one who is getting destroyed by Wladimir.

[Uncle Albert]

I fancy Haye to beat Klitschko over 12 rounds, his speed, stamina and overall fitness I think would take him all the way but unless he sorts his defence down he shouldnt think of getting in the ring with either of the Klitschko's.

Cracking peice of meat he is banging there Nathko.

I think Haye would beat him too if I'm honest although they are my favourite brothers in the world after Venus and Serena Williams.

As for his meat, yes she is very tasty.

Did he say "bitched out"?!!

Also, I never knew he was boinking (lildaves classic word) that blonde from Heroes. Seen em in the Mirror today, he's twice as tall as her.

I reckon Vlad would knock Haye out. But that depends on it not turning into another borefest like the Valuev fight where Haye didn't want to get involved. Holyfield and Ruiz both did a much better job against Valuev in my opinion and came to fight, but when Haye fought him he got the decision. I honestly can't remember Haye doing anything apart from that punch in the last round. It wasn't entertaining in the slightest (unlike the Haye Ruiz fight which was very good).

I know the Valuev fight was probably tactics and all that from Hayes team but when you look at how Holyfield and Ruiz fought Valuev I was very disappointed in Haye and hope he wouldn't do the same thing against Vlad. I'm pretty sure he wouldn't though so we should see a real fight.

[Tony Pine]

david is in his head

he's got him going out with a bird called hayden and is now making hi def b&w promos 'calling him out'.

[BoneDog]

Does anyone think Shane Mosley will beat Mayweather next month? I think it's 50/50 and won't be shocked if Mosley wins.

I forgot about this fight. I would have had Mayweather down as my favourite but then I read this.

The camp of “Sugar” Shane Mosley believes a victory in the May 1 fight against Floyd Mayweather, Jr. is already a certainty for one simple reason: money.

Mosley’s trainer, Naazim Richardson, pointed out that a rematch clause in the May 1 bout would lead to another 8-figure payday for Mayweather even if he loses.

[Joe.]

Mayweather won't lose on purpose just for a payday. What's more important to him; money he already has plenty of or keeping his unbeaten record?

Anyway, did anybody see Audley Harrison on Sky Sports News this morning? The man can talk for England, it was actually embarassing at times. He reckons the country has a vendetta against him and wouldn't give him credit for his win the other night. In fairness, he did go on from the second round with a ruptured something in his shoulder, meaning he could only use his left for the rest of it.

But still, he sounded an absolute bellend. Thinks Haye is worried about fighting him and wants a shot against a Klitschko himself should he make it through his obligatory number one contender fight.
