Fury at 'gang rape' jibe by champ Haye
Fury at 'gang rape' jibe by champ Hayehttp://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/ne ... -Haye.htmlBOXING hero David Haye shocked fans yesterday by claiming his showdown with fellow Brit Audley Harrison would be "as one-sided as a gang rape".
The WBA heavyweight champ launched the astonishing rant at a press conference to announce November's title fight.
It shocked even hardened observers used to publicity-hungry fighters making over-the-top outbursts.
Last night Viv Hayes, boss of the Women's Resource Centre, said: "I'm horrified that anybody could say something which trivialises such an extremely serious crime.
"We know only too well the effects of rape and gang rape on women and their families.
"I really would like David Haye to find out some actual information about rape and then perhaps make a donation to one of the many struggling rape crisis centres in the UK."
Haye, 29, went eye-to-eye with 2000 Olympic gold medallist Harrison, 38, in Vauxhall, South London. And he warned him: "You're going to get violated in that ring."
Haye's spokesman was later unavailable for comment.
