David Haye looked like a heavyweight force to be reckoned with as he required only 1 minute and 45 seconds to destroy Tomasz Bonin at Wembley Arena tonight. Working behind a commanding jab, Haye sent the shell-shocked Pole to the canvas three times following devastating right hands delivered with deadly accuracy prompting referee Ian John-Lewis to end the mismatch.
Haye will now reportedly drop back down to the cruiserweight division to challenge WBC & WBA champion Jean Marc Mormeck later this year. However, after tonight’s display many will be eager for Haye to continue his quest to be the saviour of the British heavyweight division. Suzanne Nield was ringside for us (well, she was in the arena, thanks Frank) and will bring you the full lowdown later on tonight’s action.
Earlier in the evening, British light-heavyweight champion Peter Oboh went AWOL and left the arena following a backstage row resulting in his title defence against Tony Oakey being aborted. The rarely seen Oboh, who hasn’t defended his British crown for three years, will now almost certainly be stripped.
