This is a must win for Haye. If Haye does not win he will have a tough road back, he will have to get in line and earn a heavyweigh title shot.

At the Weigh In David Haye looked, as always, in superb shape. He weighed 15 stone 8 pounds on the scales.

David Haye Vs Nikolay Valuev Weigh In

Nikolay Valuev looked quite a lot slimmer then what i have seen him look in the past. He weighed 22 Stone 7 Pounds, which is very light for Nikolay Valuev. David Haye is giving away a huge weight difference to Valuev. This is a career heaviest for David Haye by 1Lb.

The stare down between the two was intense, neither wanted to look away and show any weakness. This should be an excellent fight. With David Haye weighing 15 Stone 8Lbs, i think that confirms that he is looking for the knockout, he is not going to be able to run around the ring all night weighing that much, he is used to fighting much lighter. Valuev has lost some weight, so he is looking for that extra bit of speed in order to be able to catch up with Haye through out the fight.

I was quite surprised to hear boos for Nikolai Valuev, this fight is in Germany so you would of thought there would be much more Valuev fans. But hey, the UK boxing fans are the loudest in the world.

Oscar De La Hoya vs Manny Pacquiao Weigh In

Oscar De La Hoya vs Manny Pacquiao Weigh In

The fight is almost upon us, Oscar De La Hoya vs Manny Pacquiao. This should be a great fight, there is so much interest in the fight. Freak show, easy win for Oscar De La Hoya, what ever you want to call it, this fight has gained total world wide interest.

Oscar De La Hoya and Manny Pacquiao both look in superb shape at the weigh in. Both were comfortably within the weight limit. Oscar De La Hoya does look quite a bit bigger then Manny Pacquiao, but hey, size is not everything. If Manny Pacquiao can stick to his game plan of speed punching, in and out, hit and not be hit, he can win this fight. If he trys to trade and have a war with Oscar De La Hoya, i think he will get badly beaten. Don't get me wrong, the opposite could happen, Manny Pacquiao Could knockout Oscar De La Hoya, he does have the power and ability.

Manny Pacquiao has been sparring with guys in the gym similar to Oscar De La Hoya's style and size so he as prepared well for this fight, just as he does for any fight. No doubt this is the toughest fight of Manny Pacquiao's career. If Manny Pacquiao wins this fight, he will be looked at like superman! I wish him luck. Who ever wins this will almost certainly face Ricky Hatton, so i hope Manny Pacquiao wins as that would be a much fairer fight in terms of size.No matter who Ricky Hatton ends up fighting out of these two, it will be a sell out, most probably in England!

I do have the feeling that Oscar De La Hoya will win this fight, although Manny Pacquiao will put up a great fight, the size and strength of Oscar De La Hoya will just be a bit too much for Manny Pacquiao. I hope im wrong.

Ricky Hatton Vs Paulie Malignaggi Weigh In

Ricky Hatton Vs Paulie Malignaggi Weigh In

Well, Ricky Hatton Vs Paulie Malignaggi is here! Both fighters looked in excellent shape. With there being more Ricky Hatton fans from the UK then any Paulie Malignaggi fans there, all you could hear was the chants from the Ricky Hatton fans.

Paulie Malignaggi looks confident and up for this fight, him and his camp beleive they have captured this fight at the right stage of Ricky Hattons career. I do beleive this will be a tough fight for Ricky Hatton and i have my doubts on if he will win, but if he can stay focused and get past Paulie Malignaggi's great jab, he can win this fight.

Paulie Malignaggi also has very fast hands, many beleive this will be the main problem for Ricky Hatton. I really want Ricky Hatton to win this one, if he doesn't his career is almost certainly over. I think Ricky Hatton has most of the world on his side. Not many people have warmed to Paulie Malignaggi and his brash talking ways.

One thing is for sure, who ever wins this fight is in line to face the winner of Oscar De la Hoya Vs Manny Pacquiao, which would be a dream fight for the fighters and the fans! If that fighter is Ricky Hatton, what a way to end his career, with one of the biggest fights ever!.

I like the way Ricky Hatton has composed himself for most of the build up to this fight, he hasn't really bad mouthed Paulie Malignaggi, although he did in one inteview before, but mostly he has been very respectful.

I beleive this fight could go either way. If Paulie Malignaggi keeps it at range, which he has said he's going to try to do, he will win on points. If Ricky Hatton can close the distance at will he can win this one pretty easily.

Joe Calzaghe Vs Roy Jones

Joe Calzaghe Vs Roy Jones

There seems to be little interest in this fight. People are saying it's a fake. Fans are saying Roy Jones is well past his best and this is more of an exhibition match. I really don't think they should right Roy Jones off. Roy Jones is one of the best boxers of the last 8-10 years. Joe Calzaghe and Roy Jones are both not spring chickens anymore, the only difference bettween the two is Joe Calzaghe has never lost or been knocked out. I think this could be a great fight, it's a shame this fight did not happen like 5-7 years ago, if it would have, Joe Calzaghe would of lost. Roy Jones was Mr. Unstoppable in them days.

Ticket sales for this boxing match have been really slow because of the credit crunch and the lack of interest in the match up. Joe Calzaghe has never got the credit he deserved throughout his career, he has been a good boxer but never traveled and conquered America early in his career.

The weigh in did not allow any fans to be present!

I think Joe Calzaghe seems a bit concerned about this fight. He doesn't seem the same mentally..Maybe he has always known Roy Jones has better skillls and he hopes he has caught him at the right stage of his career-at the END!

Here is what the Pro's say:

Who Wins?

Former two-division World Champ Bernard Hopkins ( who has lost to both Calzaghe and Jones) thinks, Roy Jones by a unanimous because of his speed and power.

Ricky Hatton, ex-Welterweight World Champion said: "Roy's seen better days, Joe will be too fast and will outbox Roy Jones".

Peter Manfredo thinks Joe Calzaghe on points as he doesn't hit hard enough to knockout Roy Jones.

Former Heavy Weight Champion Lennox Lewis said: Roy Jones has superb speed, Joe Calzaghe's never fought anyone like him - Roy Jones to win on points.
TEN-TIME World Champion Oscar De La Hoya says: Joe Calzaghe is going to close the door on Roy Jones's career.

Personally i hope Joe Calzaghe wins, but you can never right off one of the best boxers ever! Roy Jones. May the best man win!.
