    David Haye

    I did a thread about this fight some time ago, and for the most part i got laughed at. After haye beats Enzo I cant wait for him to move up to heavyweight. He's such a naturally gifted fighter with awesome power and he's getting better all the time. Haye is ambitious and seems determined to make himself a legacy

    After watching Wlad's reluctance to get involved with any exchange seemingly out of fear, then I think the power haye brings can cause problems. He has athleticism, speed and natural power, probably P4P hardest hitter in the sport at the moment. Granted his chin is yet to be tested at heavyweight, but he made a great debut and with the extra weight he desperately needs to add then his stamina and chin can only improve.

    Obviously Haye needs a few fights first but i think in 18 months he'll be ready to challenge klitschko. At least he'll bring some excitement to the most lacklustre division in boxing

    Hopefully his chin improves when he moves up, he has the power and speed to be competitive at heavyweight.

      He looked awesome vs Bonin who was rated top 10 heavy at the time, I expect big things for Haye can't wait for the fight in 2 weeks should be awesome. Im pretty sure Haye's chin will improve at heavy due to him killing himself to make the weight at the moment, im still suprised he took the fight. I'd give him a chance against any heavyweight once hes packed into the weight, Wlad doesnt impress me and that was the worst fight ive seen since Sprott vs Skelton.

        We really need to be cautions about over selling Haye, He doesnt need the hype and hatred thats going to come with it at the moment.

        But he does have a big future in the HW but he needsto get through a difficult fight in a fortnight before he start drumming up the bandwagon.

          agreed we shouldn't get carried away, but its exciting to think about the impact he could make. He's fast and so powerful, he will definitely bright much needed excitement and i think he'll make waves and pretty quickly

            Oh Yeah definitely, He box and has the power to KO anybody and the fact that he gets hit as well just bring a whole lot of excitement to the crusierweight..So i just get excited when i think about him going up to the Heavies but i hope he stays focus because the HW is crying out for a really entertaining fighter at the moment and Haye can be that Man.

              Hopefully Klitchko will have unified all the titles when they meet and Haye can take them off him in one go. I don't see any current world class HWs with the power, hand speed and athleticism that Haye possesses. His only weakness is his chin, but ANY HW can get KOd.

                Well, Haye is my P4P No.1 and Wlad is just outside it.

                That's my P4P Dish list.

                  I still cant understand the hype surrounding haye as a heavyweight. he's a good puncher,,,top notch elite cruiserweight,,,,but his defense is way too weak to compete with the heavyweights and his chin seems suspect. he carries that left hand way too low,,,I just cant see how you guys can see him dealing with heavyweights that can punch. he's a good guy and exciting to watch,,,but I really cringe at the thought of him matched with a powerful heavyweight and it remains to be seen whether he can even hurt good heavyweights
