I don't know, if Macca can box decently and exploit the weakness in Haye's offense then I don't see why he would not be able to beat him.
See, the biggest flaw(although it is as much an asset as it is a liability) is that Haye's offense is extremely effective against much shorter guys mainly due to the way he throws his punches -- in that arched manner. On one side it is quite good and gains additional power, but if you don't have Leonard's or Robinson's handspeed it also leaves alot of room to counter and leave you off balance.
So, it is really up to Enzo if he can time Haye and work the body.
BTW, working the body against Haye should be quite effective, don't be fooled by sixpacks and such, when you have such a thin waist it looks nice but it is not very good for taking a good punch to the liver.
I completely agree, you have some very excellent insights there. :beerchug:
I'm only really concerned with Haye's seemingly faster feet which is something Jolly Roger mentioned.. That could be huge in a fight like this. I've had a few mental flashes of Haye taking that quick step and landing something huge.. But I'm betting on Mac covering up well, keeping his gloves up. He seems pretty good at that instinctively.
Haye on the other hand seems more concerned with keeping his hands away from his pretty face so he doesn't block the photogs from capturing those nice action shots while he's fighting..
Addison, who you got for the fight?
Everythign is seemingly in Haye's favor, but there is a good deal of room for upset.
I got Enzo, all factors combined I think he can pull it off. But like alot of fat Yanks I haven't seen alot of tape.. Who you got, hermano?
Addison how did you get a hold of some Enzo fights?
