How to beat David Haye

David Haye

IN this week’s edition of Boxing News magazine Carl Thompson explains how to beat David Haye. Read an exclusive extract here:

When I fought David Haye, my plan was to drag him into a fight because, at that point, heโ€™d never been in a fight. Heโ€™d had 11 fights with 10 knockouts, and we got it right.

We wanted to make it uncomfortable for him, hit him, drag him into a dogfight basically. You canโ€™t give him a chance to rest, even if you get caught, still go at it. Heโ€™d never been in that position before because he was bombing people out.

Heโ€™s good, he punches hard and I was surprised I was able to take his punches, he wobbled me a few times but I was still on my feet and my head was clear. All I knew was that I needed to hang in there because I can break people like that, I knew I always come on strong in the second half of the fight.
