Haye Makes a Heavyweight Statement in Win

[Parody]

he's had only 1 fight as a heavyweight and has been stopped already by a cruiserweight. what makes you think he can take a big heavyweight punch? I sure wouldnt get my hopes on him just yet

Haye was stopped by Thompson because of the same reason Wladimir was stopped by Brewster; They both punched themselves out.

[Cutthroat]

this is most likely true, unless Peter gets way too ****** and does not train/underestimate Maskaev. He needs good workrate to overwhelm, as you said, Maskaev, or else it will be a clinch fest with Maskaev possibly clinching out a win(boy, will I laugh if he does) I am not sold on Peter being a one punch ko artist that everyone makes him to be.

The last time he didn't train seriously he got his ass whooped by James Toney in their first fight.

David Haye has actually had three heavyweight fights, and won all by early knockout:

2004 : Valery Semishkur (217 lb., record 15-13-1) 1st round KO
2005: Garry Delaney (229 lb., record 31-9-1) 3rd round TKO
2007: Tomasz Bonin (231 lb., record 37-1) 1st round KO

oh ok. Ive never seen the guy fight,,, I just knew he was tko'd without seeing how it went down. I'll have to try to catch this guy next time he's televised. at least he sounds exciting to watch from what I hear

I mentioned this. I'll give Peter a 60/40 edge, but damn this is a great match and not at all easy to predict in detail.

I know a lot will disagree with me but I feel pretty confident that chageav would decision peter. Im still not sold on any big improvements with peter based on the way toney look in that last fight. peter is still raw and very vulnerable to a good boxer with a solid defense and or good hand speed. that would be a good matchup though

I would like to see Haye at CW, with fights against Mormeck, Bell, or Enzo, but he seems to have some issues getting down to CW. At HW i have to wait and see, a few more fights against good opponents should give us a clue on how much of an impact he will make at HW.

enzo has talked about stepping up, maybe they will have a domestic clash after all.

haye will still need to beat mormeck.

also for those alsting haye, his career is moving quicker than enzos dont ya think

Yeah, cos Enzo is a Frank Warren fighter.

You have to admire Haye. He takes risks and they're paying off.

If Haye had any sense he'd stay at HW. He's nowhere near as effective at CW (as he admits) and could suffer losses at that weight against fighters he's more talented than (I'd pick Mormeck and Maccarinelli to beat him).

At HW he'd be a beast.

Sam peters over-rated. And Oleg's going to prove how ****** people are on this forum for rooting against Oleg.
