Enzo Calzaghe, father/trainer of champion Joe Calzaghe, and trainer of Enzo Maccarinelli, believes that WBC/WBA/WBO cruiserweight champ David Haye will struggle at heavyweight. Two weeks ago in London, it took Haye only two-rounds to knock Macca out in their unification bout.

Despite his fighter being strached, Enzo is not impressed and doesn't see Haye as force in the heavyweight ranks.

"Haye did nothing for me to change my views on him," Calzaghe told Setanta Sports. "It wasn't his performance that counted it was Enzo's performance. He was only as good as Enzo made him look. He answered no questions to me. He only threw four punches himself a round. Four whole punches.Lets be honest about it. This hot property: bullsh*t. I think the same of him as I did before. If Enzo went 12 rounds with the guy he would have destroyed him.

"He didnt get a chance to show it because he did what he did wrong. You can't judge what Haye is all about from that fight. It took him five big straight rights to deck Enzo. Now you think he is going to be fighting 17 stone guys. It will take a lot more to put them down. If that went 12 rounds as Maccarinelli can fight, as he does all the time, that prestigious greatest thing since sliced bread wouldn't be around today. He won fair and square, but lets not get carried away because Enzo underperformed."

Haye is planning to stage his next fight in the heavyweight division with November as the target date. A six-month training period has been scheduled to prepare Haye for his anticipated heavyweight run. Former champion Hasim Rahman has been mentioned as an opponent, but Haye tells The Sunday Mirror that a lot of other options are out there as well.

"Hasim Rahman has been on the phone and there are plenty of other options. The plan is to put the weight on and keep it on before cleaning up the heavyweight division," Haye said. "There are too many so-called contenders and the champions are not that impressive. Wladimir Klitschko is like a robot and would be my first choice, Ruslan Chagaev is too small and is not the fighter he once was, while Samuel Peter is too slow and easy to hit.

"Any of them would be ideal for a massive fight at Wembley next summer and that's my plan."
