Haye looking to bounce back

Heavyweight reconsiders retirement

SECOND THOUGHTS: David Haye

HEAVYWEIGHT DAVID Haye has once again talked up his chances of still securing a world title belt. The Briton had seemed out of the picture after losing the WBA version of the world title to Wladimir Klitschko in July.

Haye had planned to hang up his gloves before his 31st birthday on October 13 but now there might be light at the end of the tunnel as Wladimir’s older brother, Vitali, now has Haye in his sights

Haye said of the possible clash with 40 year-old Vitali: "Vitali should give me the chance, if he dares. He is supposed to have a dangerous punch, which I doubt."

"Wladimir couldn't put me down and he had the referee, judges and fans on his side in Germany. I had no real chance.

"I've reconsidered everything after talking to my family and meeting with Lennox in Jamaica. We chilled out there and Lennox gave me some tips on how to beat Vitali, just like he did in 2003."

“Vitali is 40 and will stop at some point. For his finale, there is no better opponent than me. I would send him into retirement — but without his championship belt."

So Haye is still talking junk. He hasn't learnt from his past mistakes not to yap so much and can't back it up. I hope he has learnt to accept an ass whooping as just than and not blame his big toe little toe or whichever toe it was he blamed after Wladimir damn near rearrange his face.

Haye, is crap, but thinks he is amazing. It just shows how much boxing has fallen in recent years.
