David Haye knocked down in sparring by Tony Thomson

According to Audley Harrisson, Haye was knocked down in sparring by Tony Thomson.

If this is true Haye might lose to Chageav next year. Of course it could just be another example of his poor balance.

Chagaev is trash, Haye smokes that fool

Fraudley is a live live dog

Chageav is a solid heavyweight, Wladimir pounded him non stop and was only able to knock him down once. The guy has a great chin for a short heavyweight.

Audley is garbage, he was outboxed by a part time taxi driver.

Harrison is weak but he's got the height and the power to cause Haye some real problems

I think Haye beats down Hepatitis B like he did Ruiz

Everyone I'm sure gets knocked down in sparring.

I dont think so!

I think his height will give Haye problems, Valuev made him tentative and barely punched, if Fraudley can use his jab to set up power shots, he's got a shot in my book

Valuev is a behemoth, Haye's sparred with Audley thousands of times, they went to the Olympics together.

yeh he did he gave him the worst beating of his life in Miami

I don't think KD's in sparring matter. I do think Harrison has as good or better power than Thompson but Thompson is soooooo much better than Fraudley. My prediction for the fight is Haye TKO3 but if Harrison can get to the 2nd half of the the fight without getting KD'ed or rocked, he has a chance.

He did actually, one time Lennox Lewis came to watch Harrison spar, and Haye put on a show for him.

It's a sparring match...

Yet Khan isn't being knocked down by Manny in sparring and his chin is far worse than Haye's.

You don't know for a fact that's the case, and HWs hit hard enough where anyone can knock a guy down at a given moment.

Haye's chin has been a question mark for years, he's been knocked down at Cruiserweight more than once. Tony Thompson isn't that heavy handed, he's got about average power for a heavyweight.

I'm not questioning that, just the importance of a guy getting knocked down in a sparring session. I'm personally pretty confident in Haye whatever the case, but whats the talk like in Britain over this fight?

You guys overseas going to watch this in 3D?

Not me, 3D tv's cost and arm and a leg, plus you have to pay extra each month to watch Sky's 3D channel.

It's cool though that Sky are broadcasting sports in 3D, do they do this in the states ?

Not yet, like you said, not a lot of people have those TVs and channel subscriptions, but they are pushing it

A lot of movies in 3D in theaters

No theaters for the fight?

Nah that's not happened over here yet, only American promoters are doing that at the moment.

they don't need to show it in cinemas, there are enough pubs where people can watch it in 3D. because this fight is on at a reasonable time in Britain and not for US tv, saturday night will be busy in the pubs throughout the country and there will be millions of British people standing with a pint in one hand and 3d glasses on
