It's not a joke as such it's just in a dire state and that needs a massive re-understanding of boxing as a sport in the UK.

One of the bigger aspects of it being a farce is the way British boxing trainers literally get it all wrong now. Hatton was thrown to the Piranhas, Khan was mis managed early on, Fury is being allowed to completely spiral out of control. Anthony Joshua is being allowed to talk it up with David Haye? Is he insane, it'll never happen and by god it never should, the thought of seeing the next British heavyweight boxing prospect on his back because his mouth got the better of him is disturbing.

I've seen far too much of what I can only describe as hopelessness around British boxing.

By that I mean people that are allowed by their managers and trainers to rack up 30 fight winning streaks then talk themselves into Vegas showdowns with only one outcome (Hatton) whom was horribly exposed as a boxer by Mayweather then viciously savaged by Manny who were both on a completely different level.. I'm saying this wouldn't be happening if you put a stop to the above.

Fury is in the process of doing exactly this. Kell Brook is doing this. It'll all end in tragedy again. It's a shame because the ultimate loser is us as fans.

I'm glad Haye's back, I still maintain with the right plan he'll floor Klitschko, big ask now though, been out of the game too long.
I've watched that fight over and over, people are too quick to follow the media judging of it. Haye was out boxed overall but there's some pretty dire stuff going on from Wlad in that fight, the constant leaning. Haye got to him, I don't think anyone actually realised this, Haye landed 3 clean power punches in that fight and Klitschko felt every single one of them and grabbed hold as quick as he could. He's the first person I've seen in many years to back Wlad up the way he did.

Just to echo the middle of this wall of text, another thrown to the dogs was George Groves, I've never seen talent mismanaged so poorly.

It's not just us though, Nevada boxing officials have been absolutely disgraceful over the years, I don't even need to go into it. 114-114 for a Mayweather fight, enough said.

Who Haye faces?

If it's Joshua I'm done with British boxing bar Khan. It'll only prove they give a crap about the money and nothing more, feeding Joshua to a man that's absolutely clinical in knocking people out, Joshua being a young completely untested heavyweight that's probably never felt anything close to what someone like Haye could throw just with his left hand.. stupid, just stupid.

Deontay Wilder - Absolutely unlikely but throwing it in here anyway, Wilder is booked to defend the WBC title in January against thus far no one. It's unlikely because Wilder tends to avoid anyone half decent, he's improving but thus far his boxing skills are solely a punch, he's wild, he's sloppy, someone like Haye could easily catch him clean plenty of times. Unfortunately Haye actually did, rocking the cocky and arrogant Wilder numerous times in a sparring session that found the light of day.

People don't like Khan, he's muslim for starters, already lost half of the British public. He's exciting, he's explosive, he's literally an American prizefighter at this point, they love him. He's also dangerous, Mayweather took Berto for a reason. Khan can beat Manny. I don't think there's many boxers in the world that can outpoint Amir Khan. The glass chin argument is too old now, it's boring and it's so one sided and bias I give up with it. Manny has been put down more times in his career than Khan and in more brutal fashion as we seen with Marquez, yet he's never once questioned about his chin despite being dropped multiple times. Klitschko notoriously met this same outcome once and no questions are asked anymore.
