    Hey, I say it how I see it and that's the way it is.
    I knew you had your fishing rod out, but you didn't get the catch that you wanted.

    Now get in here and finish what you started:

      This isn't to wind anyone up, It's my opinion on a fighter.

      I hope you can give opinions on other fighters some day soon too without trying to rile someone up.

        Be fair to Haye, Wladimir himself gassed out against Puritty and Brewster because he was looking to impress but he has improved his style since then and so has Haye.

        I do still think that they are both suspectible to running out of conditioning mid fight but they fight at a more controlled pace now, Wladimir especially.
        Haye was being pressured by Mormeck but he still had enough power to finish the fight in the middle rounds even though he had cut a lot of weight.

        Haye may get knocked out at HW but we will have to wait and see. I'm not jumping on any hype wagons but I'm not going to count him out either.

          Mormeck was old though, he wasn't the same fighter as he once was and he still had Haye on the canvas and nearly out!

              Haye went down, preventing Mormeck from landing any follow-up punches which is what Maccarinelli should've done against Haye. Good move IMO.

              Mormeck is getting old but he is not shot and could still be a threat in the rather weak CW division that we are left with now that Haye has moved up.

                I do give opinions on other fighters but certain people don't like it like when i don't agree with them.

                I have my own views on fighters, if people don't like it.......tough!

                As for this thread, you ain't wrong Haye's bread ain't great and he keeps his left hand awfully low which would suggest he is line for a nasty KO.

                Carl Thompson did it, which means A HW has a decet chance also, but am sure Haye is aware of this and acts on it.

                  Carl Thompson an old, average cruiserweight did it.

                  What makes you think the best heavyweight today wouldn't?

                  It's a foregone conclusion, IMO.

                      That's what boxing is.

                      Couldn't or shouldn't he.

                      No one knows for certain, people forget that Haye was very naive in that Thompson fight and threw all his irons in the fire the first 4 rounds and then his poor stamina came into play and was boxed out of it.

                      He a 100 times a better fighter then he was against Thompson, people read into that defeat too much IMO.

                      Haye will be going up to fight at his natural weight, Heavyweight.
