    Haye and a possible heavyweight title fight

    According to a report in a london paper david haye could move straight into a world heavyweight title fight if and thats a big if he can beat mormeck on saturday.

    World at his feetNov 6 2007

    By Richard Cawley


    DAVID Haye could be set to head straight into a dream shot at the world heavyweight title - if he wins his cruiserweight showdown with Jean-Marc Mormeck on Saturday.

    South Londoner Haye is looking to win the WBC and WBA world cruiserweight titles from the French champion in Paris this weekend.

    And Haye's promoter Frank Maloney is already plotting a shot at boxing's richest prize - if the classy Bermondsey fighter opts to move up to heavyweight.

    "If David does decide to go up in weight I would like to see him achieve something unique - like having a world heavyweight title shot straight away," said Maloney.

    "It would be beyond anything that any other British sportsman has done.

    "You can never say something is impossible to achieve in boxing because you can go to bed dreaming of something and you wake up the next day and it happens.

    "I would like David to defend the cruiser title once - but that's a decision he'll take with his training team."

    I'd be shocked if Haye defends the CW title if he wins on Saturday. If he does, it'd better be against Maccarinelli.

          Why would he get a title shot right away?

          They must not have confidence in his ability to work his way up.

            Seriously though, I realize I'm being a bit oppositional, but why would a guy with one fight at HW at one title fight at CW get a HW title shot? Why should the rest of the world take this seriously?

            You guys are really getting out of hand with this Haye fellow.

              Before Haye gets a heavyweight title shot, he better win the CW from Mormeck first.

                It would mean a big payday right from the start. If you were in that postition you would probably take the shot.

                    Beating one bum at heavyweight shouldn't earn you a title shot, imo.
