I have the feeling the Haye balloon will deflate as soon as he faces a live heavyweight.
I find it strange that the UK fans cannot see themselves getting bamboozled here. If they would take one step back and clearly look at the situation, they will see that Haye got handed this fight on a silver platter. It was setup so he could get a belt. Haye will now earn like a 10+ million dollar purse to fight Ruiz. Guess where that money is coming from and for what?
There is no problem with standing behind your guy, but you should be objective on how he got to where he is at in the current heavyweight division. You fans should demand more.

I think it's an interesting matchup.
Haye has adavantages in handspeed, power, and overall athelticism. He's also unorthodox with his hands down approach, which leads to punches coming from weird angles.
However, Chambers has better fundamentals and technique; he has better balance and his punches tend to be straighter. Haye is quicker, but it's not like Chambers is slow, in fact, he's quick for the division. Chambers is also significantly better defensively.
If the Chambers that showed up to fight Dimitrenko, he'd give Haye problems IMO.

imo haye will be out of his class against fast eddies style.
eddies not going to be standing infront of him.
hayes defense or lack of it will be tested by chambers.
haye won't get away with fighting on the backfoot like
against cro-magnom.
but, even tho mr.haye is spewing all these big challenges, i expect him to milk his belt and settle with fighting less than stellers for hoaky regional
and eurobelts.
think its going to be awhile before we see haye get in the ring with anyone of significants.
don't fall for all the shuck and jive haye hype.
or maybe i'm wrong
