    haye a natural HW? of course he is

    im fed up of some ppl saying that haye is not a natural HW. haye does not have a big frame like paul williams does but he is muscular and his body has needed to be given this space to develop for a long time.

    haye has always had a desire to finish off his buisness at CW very quickly, his management and haye knew that he wasn't going to spend long at the weight. he also missed the scales very early on in his career yet he still managed to secure the undisputed title at CW.

    i think we should take a step back and realize just how hard david haye works in training camp and appluad his work ethic and professionalism in training, heck a few more HW's had his attitude (fat eddie, sam peter, arreola) maybe the HW wouldn't be in the state it is.

    haye could very easily come in and weigh 230-240, he puts on muscle mass quickly. but he is looking to keep his speed and conditioing and becaue of that i think his weight will come under 225 or below. the vast majority of HW's if they got themselves down to hayes body fat percentage levels would probably weigh about the same.

    as for his height haye is about 6'3. arreola, povetkin, peter, chambers, ruiz, ibragimov and maskev are all either the same height or shorter than him from what i have seen.

    so hopefully this will put to bed the theory that haye is a small HW - chris byrd was a small HW, toney is a small HW, david haye is a legit HW, hes not a klitchsko or valuev but at the same time hes not a byrd or a toney hes in the same bracket as the likes of arreola and povetkin.

        Nobody ever knocked down Ibragimov, unlike Haye knocked down, by little guys like Thompson, Mock, Mormeck.

              Ibragimov is a slick southpaw with a tough chin and good defense

              Haye is orthodox, keeps his left hand too low and has a glass chin, he's an easy target.

              Wlad will knock his ass out

                His last 4-5 fights at Cruiserweight, Haye was killing himself just to make weight. Heavyweight is his natural weight class. Wither he's suited and is good enough to be in amongst the heavies remains to be seen.

                The Wlad fight will answer a lot of questions about Haye. It's make or break fight for him.

                As a Haye fan, if he losses to Wlad, i reckon he'll take a long break and spend some of the fortune from the Wlad fight and come back to take his thrown at Cruiserweight?

                    The draft from one off Peter's punches would KO Haye.
