The British HW Scene

[DeathFromAbove]

would Haye carry enough power to ko the likes of klitscko or valuev? I think he's too small for a modern day HW champion.

Thats a fair point , but i think he could hang with them but its gonna be hard for anyone to knock out valuev when ur half the guys weight

that boy belshaw is a KO artist, i've seen a clip of him. But he's raw (since when was that a factor though, coughgeorgeforemancough).

Frank Bruno coming out of retirement and cleaning house? Hmm, don't see that happening unfortunately. He probably could too.

Maybe David Haye moving up, he's got age on his side. All the others are in their mid/late 30's, and I've never been impressed with Scott Gammer, got the impression he avoided Audley Harrison.

Heavywheight scene in the Uk has always been crap, we were so lucky to get Lennex out of Canada ( which is really British ) If you were honest Bruno was a glass jaw body builder with a big punch still liked him though, Cooper was a light heavy at best but still had a great left hook. Skelton sadly is our best hope, as you don't know what Williams your going to get from one fight to the next. Harrison is a bottler of the highest order and he can't or wont put the work into trainning, sad fact you can't fight unless you go out pounding the streets with daily road work, Hamed was the same, nobody likes it.
As for David Haye who can really put the graft in in trainning, one of the fittest fighters out there, has'nt got the chin to step up to HW, remember Carl Thompson, he should stay at Cruiser, money might turn his head though.

Forget Haye, he's too small and looks to have a shaky chin. Lets see what he can do at cruiserweight.

The U.S. Heavyweight scene is bad, but the Brit one is horrible. I've revised my imaginary rankings, and there are no Brits in the top 50 now. Maybe a couple in the top 100. Really, all boxing fans need to learn to disregard nationality as much as possible. The current Brit heavies have received much more attention than deserved.

british heavy weights have been poor but i believe david haye will be champion ,skelton is poor just average fighter in the us ,the rest are even worse hayes got real potential though ,just thinking what would have happened if calzaghe had fought roy jones

Jones jr was never a heavyweight.

he was given a title by john ruiz.

james toney on the other hand is a bonafide heavyweight.

for me Haye is gonna get koed soon, maybe ot against bonin but
either against the cruiserweight champ or the next big hitting hw
he takes on. the rest are garbage with skelton being the best of
a bad bunch

A) You haven't seen him, I bet
B) Your say that when your avatar and sig hype Audley Harrison up?
C) He's 20 years old, he's got a lot to learn.

I never said he was the next world champ, I called him a KO artist, meaning he is a big puncher (which he is). Having said that I wouldn't be surprised if he went further than your man Audley.

it aint an achievement to go further than audley, even with a Gold Olympic Medal
