    Mormeck and Bell have at least equal skill to jirov, Have you seen Mormeck he slips punches has great upper body movment and is a devestating body puncher although his stamina is a bit weak watch Mormeck Bell 1 and 2, I would pick him to beat Jirov.

      mormeck and bell are good fighters, i should have thought of them when i wrote the other post, i think on a good night mormeck probably would beat jirov also

        Enzo Macca for one fought hand picked competition basically his entire career. Haye on the othrehand has fought the best and beat the best in the world at Cruiserweight. That being said I think he is greatly underestimating Wlad Klitschko and the rest of the elite heavyweights in the division today. Only time will tell if Haye holds his power at Heavyweight. Time will also tell how he takes a shot to the jaw from a man 6'6 245 pounds. I think Haye has a great chance to grab a belt at Heavyweight, only it won't be Wlads. He fights Wlad I would say Haye gets stopped early.

            enzo is a sore loser, sour g****s and little mans complex sounded right guys.

            seriously though, haye has supposedly been having trouble making 200lbs, so where is he supposed to go? super cruiser weight?? ha just messing, the only place for him to go is heavyweight, now whether or not he can actually make something happen there is another question. i think that he could do some good in that division, at the very least give it some life, the heavies are full of stiffs and sucks complete ass to watch any of them fight!!!!

            but i think that haye should take a few fights in the heavyweight division and build up to fighting the top tier, but then again, what is the top tier of the heavies???? wlad? and although he is, the guy is afraid of getting hit and doesn't even want to entertaint he idea of throwing combos or making a fight for fans. wlad is the only name in the heavies, peter is a bum and everyone else is a eye sore.....

            god hopefully haye can step in and bring some excitement! the division needs to be either wiped out and start all over again, or someone needs to bring it back to life!!!!

            oh yeah and about Macca, it was obvious that he wasn't on hayes level, those overhand counter rights landing at will made that abundantly clear............................
