Could have gone either way, but considering the size difference Haye could only box one way, and he stuck to his tactics 100%. Valuev was really poor and Haye rocked him massively in the 12th.I forgot all about this. Was it a convincing win?
Same way Sugar Ray Leonard, amongst others, used to. Valuev only actually hit him about five times. Haye scored fairly consistently throughout the fight including a combination that almost had his opponent on the floor in the last round.How did he win that by running away?
Being a world champion based on running away...The American commentators I heard gave it 2 rounds to Valuev. Guess that final round swung it.Same way Sugar Ray Leonard, amongst others, used to.

A good win despite Haye being a little too slow to apply pressure.
Running away, yeah because Valuev has been the champion by plodding around and relying on the judges. We didnt see the real Haye tonight, but we saw the right result.Being a world champion based on running away...The American commentators I heard gave it 2 rounds to Valuev.

Never going to happen, Haye isn't some guy from the Olympics, he's the heavyweight champion of the world, he'll never be off Sky Box Office from now onHope the BBC try to make a deal with him but after Audley Harrison they may be cautious
Probably true, but a real shame. Look at the interest this fight generated among casual fans - a world class British heavyweight like Haye would generate big viewing figures on terrestrial TV.Never going to happen, Haye isn't some guy from the Olympics, he's the heavyweight champion of the world, he'll never be off Sky Box Office from now on
Boxing may never really be on Terrestrial TV again, best you'll get is the early stuff, like ITV had with Khan, but it doesn't seem like terrestrial is really interested anymore, of course, I'm sure the BBC will pick up the highlights to show next weekend
