Ha! :)
I did it for a couple of years at a gym in Bethnal Green. It was a good mix of people all pretty attitude free, some doing it to get fit and some doing it to train for a bout. What it wasn't was 'boxercise', I know this from the first time I was clipped on the chin during sparring ;)
Having said that though it was also a macho free zone, the emphasis being on respect for each other and learning the craft to the best of your abilities.
Doesn't surprise me that Haye is a cocky sod to be honest.
Tyson was amazing back-in-the-day, once Cus died he lost much more than a father-figure, it was also losing his lateral head movement after prison that really let him down in terms of his effectiveness.
