Haye Faces Monte Barrett at The O2

On 15 November 2008 at The O2, former world cruiserweight champion David 'The Hayemaker' Haye will face New York contender Monte 'Two Gunz' Barrett, ranked at number six by the World Boxing Organization (WBO) and a former WBC and WBA world heavyweight title challenger.

The fight - scheduled for 10 rounds and screened live and exclusively by Setanta Sports – will pit the man considered the future of the heavyweight division against a man, in Barrett, who has fought a who's who of recent heavyweight contenders and champions.

"Barrett is pretty much a perfect opponent," says Haye, 21-1 (20 KO). "He's an exciting heavyweight who always puts up a good fight. At the same time, though, he’s also a dangerous heavyweight who has surprised many other up and coming heavyweights. Nobody can ever take anything for granted with Barrett. There haven't been many boring Monte Barrett fights and I'm sure he'll be there swinging on November 15."
