This Saturday night, David Haye will be fighting Valuev for the heavyweight crown.  Fellow countryman Lennox Lewis has a word of warning and a few tips for the Haye-maker from the UK BBC press. 
"David is fast and brave, but he will be nearly a foot shorter and about 100 Click for more!

pounds lighter and that is a massive amount. I will be watching when David gets in the ring and hoping that he can follow me and win the world heavyweight title, but it is going to be a hard night." "Your going to have to jump to hit a big guy like that...the weakness he has is his speed, Haye has to be wise.  Don't let him hold him and don't let him put his weight on him."

Lennox says that the heavyweights now are not very entertaining and it will take some time for it to grow.

"The heavyweight landscape at the moment needs help, we are in the rebuilding stage right now.  Maybe in 20-30 years down the line we'll see some great heavyweight come along."

When asked if Haye could be that next great champ he said, "Its going to be a difficult battle because he has to get through 3-4 big guys first."

When asked if he would ever comeback to boxing he says, "Its easy for me (not to comeback) because I accomplished all my goals, and I can't do anything else.  You can say my belly is full right now boxing wise....I still do the commentary with HBO and the gym work.  There is nothing that can get me back in the ring."
