personally i think haye is a legit HW, hes alwyas been a huge CW and from his early fights there hes always had a hard time making the weight, in fact he missed the scales once when he was very early on in his career yet he has remained at the weight, fought approx 9 times since then and cleaned out the division. just think about that fellas, hes had such a hard time making fight for so long yet still remained at the weight to clean out the division.
the guy is committed, professional and takes his training and boxing very seriously, which is more than what can be said for some of these so called HW's (yes im looking at you fat eddie, tit man arreola and sam peter).
since his early days he has been a HW whos managed to get himself down to CW, go ahead and dig up any interview that dates back 3/4 years and weight issues are mentioned even then. for haye his progresion to a HW is natural, other fighters like holyfield, had to beef themselves up but for david he just went out and trained normally and didn't restrict the diet and the weight came on naturally.
fighters like eddie chambers and chris bryd are small HW's - haye is a natural HW, anyone who think he only has a 1% chance of winning doesn't know what they're talking about.Comment
