David Haye v Wladimir Klitschko for the WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles tonight

Can't see Haye loosing it, just hope it's not his last fight

Gonna watch the fight next week.
Frochs girlfriend

I will always remember staying up to watch Mayweather V Hatton.

Hope Klitschko knocks several blocks out of Haye.

yeah, there's always that awkward moment when she pops up in a Froch fight

Robbie, can see why you'd want that, comes across very cocky but he pulls it off, easily our best heavyweight for years.

Why should I feel the need to support anyone just because they're British? Haye seems like a massive dickhead.

I didn't say you should Anyway, I can't stand Andy Murray

Brook v N'Dou, Sky Sports 2 now.

The best thing about Froch is her , I only really watch Boxing when the big matches are on but seen a lot of Pacquiao and he is class and i reckon he would knock Mayweather out if he had him a fight.

People just often say "our" as if it's some sort of obligation to their country, that's all.

yeah, but I meant it as in, even though he talks alot of crap, he gets the job done in the ring, and being easily the best in England and imo the best in the world proves that.

I was on google so quickly when I saw her first sitting at a Froch fight years back

I'd reckon Floyd would take it, not much in it though. Needs to happen early 2012 at the latest otherwise the two will be past it

Kell Brook impressive again, winning 11 out of 12 rounds against an experienced guy who's never been stopped

Matthew Macklin proving me wrong on SS2, putting in a great performance in a world title fight.

mma > boxing.

What a great fight between Sturm and Macklin, Mackling put so much into it but Sturm's striking was so much better.

Can't wait for Haye and Vlad. I reckon Haye will knock him down, will be far too quick.

Huge respect to Mac, really stepped up tonight. Seemed to run out of steam a little around round 6/7 but still a very good effort. Never thought he was anywhere near world level.

They are having a rematch, he said that he beat Sturm but i did not see the fight so i dont know whether he was better over the rounds.

Good thing it says it's a parody, otherwise I would have thought Hitler was still alive.

I hate Haye but that made me laugh.

7:44 'I've got a fucking hard-on right now'

Love him or hate him, Haye is a good laugh. He's great at promoting a fight.

Is it just me or does Haye show fear when he's trying to troll Klitschko ?

That's what Vitali Clit said.

I've ordered the fight, can't wait.

Gonna watch it at my mates house.

Same, I am not even paying for it he is, but we ordered it last night.

I paid for Haye v Valuev, and someone else paid for Haye v Harrison ().

Haye v Harrison, what a waste of money that was.

We still got smashed though, so was alright.

Waldy weighed in at 242lbs 8oz (17st 4lb 8oz) with Haye two pounds heavier than his fight with Harrison at 212lbs 12oz (15st 2lb 12oz).

Anybody fancy a last minute bet (for PP's) on the fight?

I would ruin Froch's bird
