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"
