Not even close

I highly doubt it.

Tyson probably didn't hit Danny anywhere near as hard as he could, he didn't need to.

I heard Danny once got knocked out by the gust of wind from a passing butterfly's wing... oh no sorry it was Audley Harrison.

What do you mean he didn't need to? Are you forgetting that Tyson lost?

Tyson hit nowhere near as hard as he did in his prime, when he fought Danny.

No, Haye won't hit as hard as Tyson, he doesn't have the lower centre of gravity and doesn't generate as much power behind each punch, he will still hit hard though.

but according to williams who sparred with haye. he nearly hits as hard as tyson as it is . williams said that when haye puts on weight he will hit harder than wlad,tua,peter or any of the heavyweights. williams also said that haye has a solid chin.

But Williams never felt Tysons power in his prime. So it's not exactly a fair judgement of how powerful Mike really was.

Haye hits hard ther is no question about it, after some fights in HW division you can compare him with Wlad, but compare his power with Tyson's it's ridiculous IMO. Tyson is one of the hardist punchers ever in boxing history.....

Yes, he will also be more "fleet-footed" as well.
