  1. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/boxing/8347139.stm Britain's David Haye beat giant Russian Nikolay Valuev on points to be crowned WBA heavyweight champion in Nuremberg. The Londoner, who gave away seven stone to his opponent, started steadily but struggled to land any telling hits. However, Haye kept working hard and almost knocked over the Russian with a powerful punch in the final round. But Haye, 29, won a majority victory by 114-114 116-112 116-112 to become Britain's first world heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis in 2003. Haye, 29, carried a record of 22 wins (21KOs) and one defeat into the contest against the 7ft champion, who had also suffered just one defeat in his 52 fights with a total of 34 knockouts. "I think I've almost certainly broken my hand but it's a small price to pay," Haye told BBC Radio 5 live. "I caught him with a right in the second or third and let me tell you his head is solid, it felt like a brick. I just couldn't use it from there on in. "Here I am, heavyweight champion of the world and I'm loving it. I'm going to clean up the division."
  2. I think Haye is capable of beating whatever might be put in front of him on his day. Many said he hadn't a hope in hell against Valuev in this fight tonight and he's proved them wrong. Bring on the Klitschko's, he is well capable of defeating them, he's champion and, IMO, deservedly so.
  3. came up trumps right at the end guys but everythin froze, apologies http://www.atdhe.net/7509/watch-nikolay-valuev-vs-david-haye

  7. He is a disgrace of a man, that is no apology and should not be considered as one, the man will never apologize, he has no morals.
  8. Some really important goals for us, both in terms of helping us to progress (Fiorentina anyone?) and also moneywise, on yerself Nacho
  9. Atmosphere was really special tonight. I'm still buzzing, despite the defeat.
  10. I stayed till the end, singing my heart out for the lads. No surrender!
  11. Looked a bit nervous tonight, that's to be expected though, he's a young lad, still has plenty of time to prove himself, and I fully believe he will become a fantastic asset for us.
  12. Superb performance from Davis tonight.
