Curren$y`s Weekend at Burnie’s is Stores now.

There are few things I enjoy more than an exciting boxing match. It had been years since a notable heavy weight match had caught my attention. The last one I purchased on Pay Per View was when Mike Tyson fought Kevin McBride (and retired mid-fight) in 2005. I’ve had to give up my love for giant men throwing hay-makers in exchange for smaller, quicker boxers throwing combinations. I still enjoy the smaller weight classes, but after watching Tyson highlights when he was inducted into the Boxing Hall of Fame, I longed for the power and excitement that only a big man fight can bring.

For those of you who do not follow boxing too closely (ie. Mayweather fans), on Saturday Vladimir Klitschko beat David Haye for the WBA heavy weight title. This man now holds four of the five heavy weight belts (IBA, WBO, IBF, & WBA)!! His brother, Vitali, has the WBC heavy weight belt. (O_O)  These Ukrainians can fight!! That is not an easy task to get all those belts. Tyson was the youngest to do it. Pacquiao has belts in several weight classes, as does Mayweather. (But that is where the lower weight classes differ from the heavy weight division. Heavy weights will not fluctuate their weight and jump from class to class.)

David Haye talked a LOT of shit for nearly 3 years to Klitschko. This fight was supposed to be a ticking time bomb. I told a friend that I was afraid someone may die in this fight. I likened it to Rocky IV when Ivan Drago pummeled Apollo Creed to death. Dude showed up to the press conference wearing a t-shirt depicting him holding the heads of both Klitschko brothers! There was so much fury displayed between them in all of the pre-fight interviews. The anticipation was great! This was dubbed the biggest fight of the year.

I had to work when the fight aired (it took place in Germany, so it aired at 4:45pm EST) so I recorded it on my DVR. When I got home at 1am, you best believe I turned it on. I was exhausted and fighting the weight of my eyes the entire time, but I had to see it immediately!! I couldnt go online or watch ESPN without knowing who won first. So I giddily curled up in bed with my remote and patiently awaited a KO.

I didn’t get to see a KO. I did get to see David Haye fall down at least once a round though. WTF? He wasn’t pushed, pulled, or knocked down by Klitschko. He just kept falling. It was maddening. Look:

After watching 12 grueling rounds of the heavy weight version of the Pacquiao vs. Mosley fight (Mosley = Haye, fought scared), Klitschko wins unanimously by decision. Wow. Shocking. Disappointing. I was ready to throw my remote and give in to sleep, but I couldn’t miss out on Larry Merchant’s post-match interviews. Did Haye really come out with his shoe off and claim a broken toe???? OMG let the Twitter jokes begin:

• @UnitedsRedArmy - What does David Haye and an artist have in common? Both love spending time on a canvas.
• @sickipediabot-
  • So David Haye has blamed the defeat on a broken toe. Probably dropped a hardcopy of “Arsene Wenger’s book of excuses” on it.
  • What’s the difference between a book and David Haye? The book has a title. And a spine.
  • What’s the difference between David Haye and my trousers? My trousers have a belt.
  • I think I should get half of David Haye’s purse. I watched the fight in 3D, which meant I got closer to Klitschko than he did.
  • I stubbed my toe and now I probaby couldn’t fight my way out of a wet paper bag, but Haye, you know how it goes…
• @BadTasteJokes - What do Stephen Hawking and David Haye have in common? Neither can lift their arms above their waist.
• @JeromeSolomon - Oh, my pinkie toe! … Did Quick shoot David Haye in the pinkie toe? #harlemknights
• @nwilborn19 - maybe Shane (Mosley) and David Haye should fight just to see who can throw fewer punches
• @MikeHillESPN - Fat Alberts Hey Hey Hey >> David Haye
• @MikeySmokes - David Haye is wearing the 3 Lion crest of English football. Expect him to dive.
• @ronartest - David Haye is going to train me in the UK!! (prolly not a joke, but still funny!)
• @Twisted_Blood- Why is David Haye dressed as a takeaway burrito?

How I wish I could have live tweeted this fight! Lawd it was a mess. Why would he punk out like that?? Who cares if Klitschko was 3 inches and 30 lbs bigger than him? (Haye beat Nikolai Valuev – a foot taller and 100 lbs heavier – 2 years ago.) He was real quick to come out and blame his toe. Last time I checked, my toes had no control or affect on my ability to throw a punch. But, what do I know. Fights like these are why I will never pay to watch boxing again.

I would pay to see Justin Bieber really fight David Haye tho.
