David Haye: I need to change

David Haye says he will have to adapt his style in order to conquer WBA heavyweight champion Nicolai Valuev on November 7.
The former unchallenged cruiserweight champion has always looked easy to hit, with low hands and a jutting chin, although a 21-1 record with 20 stoppage wins suggests otherwise.
However, against 7ft 2in Valuev the Brit recognises the need to be wary of getting caught by the Russian, who will be keen to make his massive physical superiority count.
"Come out there i expect there and actually try to assert his size on me, lean on me and use his very effective jab, which he's been working on a lot, and that's become a very effective tool for him," he said.
"So I expect him to come out there using those ramrod jabs, soften me up and throwing his trademark right upper cut and get me out of there.
"I'm expecting the best Nicolai Valuev to turn up and I've got a solution to anything he throws at me.

David Haye: Ready to hit the heights against Nikolai Valuev

David Haye ends his exile from the ring tomorrow when he begins the first of 200 intense rounds of sparring at his new gym in central London.
Haye, who is 6ft 3in, fights 7ft Nikolai Valuev for the WBA heavyweight title in Germany on November 7, and he said: "There are sparring partners coming in from Russia, Germany and America for the first week and I'll need more. This is the fight of my life and I need to be in the condition of my life that is what hard sparring is all about.
"I remember watching Lennox Lewis belt the life out of his sparring partners and thinking it was a bit harsh.
"Lennox told me a heavyweight title fight demands the hardest possible sparring. I'm not going to hold back against the giants that I'm bringing in because I want to knock over big men."
Haye's trainer and promotional partner, Adam Booth, has spent six weeks compiling a list of the sport's tallest and heaviest fighters.
Booth said, "It's an extreme fight and I've gone to extreme lengths to guarantee that David gets the right sparring"

David Haye: Jay-Z is a fan of boxer David Haye

Jay-Z thinks boxer David Haye is a knockout. The champ was introduced to the rapper after his show with Coldplay.

And Jay-Z was equally bowled over and tried to get David a drink but he's teetotal in the build up to a bout. Jay-Z's now preparation on flying over for the fight in November."
