So it looks like Haye is going to take on Chisora in London after all. What a joke of a fight this is going to be. This isn't boxing this is ridiculous. These are two washed up journeymen looking for a final payday.
There are two reasons for this:
Firstly these two genuinely do hate each other and want to fight in which case this isn't a boxing match. Its a fight, a back street brawl, its dangerous and it should be stopped. These two are going out to hurt each other and it drags the name of boxing and the rules through the mud.
The alternative is, they don't and this is all a work and they are in it for the money. In which case this is theatre so they may as well do this at WWE's Summerslam and treat it as sports entertainment which is what it is and not boxing which is what it isn't.
Whatever it is I won't be watching because I love boxing and this palpably isn't that. These two are a disgrace

As to them both being a disgrace, in my opinion, Chisora is the only disgrace..

It's telling that Chisora's actions in his last fight caused more of a stir than his conviction for beating up his ex girlfriend.
I can be quite cynical at times and I wouldn't be surprised that all the after nonsense was staged to drum up interest for this fight. Haye is a fantastic salesman, far better than he is a boxer; he managed to turn a no contest against Audrey Harrison into the biggest pay per view fight ever in the UK earning himself a lot of money.

The heavyweight division is rubbish, amongst the biggest culprits with their tedious sameness and repetition are the Klitschkos, hopefully this fight will liven things up a little.

I also think MMA is more exciting than boxing, but then I also think football is more exciting than rugby. They are different sports.

For me boxing had its golden era with the eubank benn fights. Ufc, almost every fight is edge of the seats stuff and its much more realistic, mms is the art of fighting if you like, boxing is some watered down version with too many bum fighters. That Harrison, haye fight for instance, Harrison threw like 1 jab in the whole 3 rounds. Boring.
