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." [/quote] Taken from the BBC News website. Branded as the David Vs Goliath fight, it was truly amazing. Valuev had the size, weight and height advantage over Haye, despite the odds Haye fought a defensive fight and took home the WBA Heavyweight title.
Holy shit i thought he was going to get slaughtered...
Amazing fight. Credit to David Haye.
He was way to fast for Valuev, he couldn't keep up and land the punches he needed to in order to hold the title. Valuev failed to land any threatening blows, I think it would of been a different fight altogether if Haye didn't fight so defensively.
That shit is possible?!
That guy looks like a caveman.
Yeah watched it. The last round had me shitting myself when he staggered him.
If he did that in the 11th, I think he would of had Valuev down and out. Just noticed how much Valuev sounds like the heavy.

Valuev is simply to big to dance around like Haye, but it takes a good fighter in order to adapt his style of boxing to suit his fighter in such a way. Which is why Haye beat a man who has beaten 50 others. Valuev is a good fighter and a very respectable boxer, he respects his opponent both previous and prior to the fight, you don't see a lot of boxers doing that. I think there is a possibility Valuev may retire, but in my opinion he is still a great boxer and just like Manny Pacquiao, hes a credit to his country.
He really does look like a neanderthal. See the extended lower forebone on his head?
Proof that size doesn't matter.
I think the way his bones extrude so much is probably down to his height / size.
Score one for Blighty [img]http://pictures.directnews.co.uk/liveimages/The+Queen_695_17962319_0_0_6000537_300.jpg[/img]
We need Ricky Hatton back on the seen now to come back stronger and dominate the light / welterweight belts.
I would be lolling so hard if he actully came out of medical with a broken hand his head must be a fucking stone due to all those Bones of Steel !!!!...

Fuck yes. Hopefully this will inspire some talent in the Heavyweight division, because it's fucking abysmal at the moment.
anywhere we can watch this fight?
