Audley Harrison: "Haye Was Not Undisputed Cruiserweight Champion"

That makes Harrison the only Brit smart enough to figure this fact out.

Can't even count how many times the idiotic Limeys on this site have championed Haye for being "Undisputed Cruiserweight Champ".

He is right, Haye wasn't....he was #1 CW in the world and a unified champion but not undisputed.

I always considered Cunningham #1.

Beating Mormeck (who had already been knocked out by Bell) and Maccarinelli (who has turned out to be a bum) only fooled those who didn't know better.

Having the most belts doesn't make you the best if you didn't fight the best fighters to get them.

The only reason Steve Cunningham had a belt was because they stripped Jean Marc Mormeck of that belt.

David Haye was only in TWO title fights at cruiserweight:

1) against old Jean-Marc Mormeck, past his prime after the two wars with Bell. Mormeck nearly KOed him, but Haye survived the round by deliberately getting behind him and landing a hard illegal rabbit punch. For that, Haye should have lost by DQ. Mormeck never fully recovered from the illegal punch, and was stopped within a few rounds.

2) against china-chinned Enzo Maccarinelli, who should never have had the WBO title in the first place. Maccarinelli got a chance to fight for the vacant WBO title against a clubfighter he'd already beaten because of Frank Warren's shady maneuvers

Both Enzo and Mormeck had been KOed before.

Haye avoided the best cruiserweights, such as Tomasz Adamek, Guillermo Jones, Krzysztof Wlodarczyk, and the IBF champion Steve Cunningham. Unlike Mormeck and Maccarinelli, none of these four have ever been KOed.

No, Steve Cunningham fought Krzysztof Wlodarczyk for the IBF belt twice, losing the first time and winning the rematch.

If they would have fought, I think the slick Cunningham would have probably out-boxed Mormeck for a decision win.

Stop with that *****. Who cares how many title fights he had? He only needed two to unify the division. He was under no mandate to stay at cruiserweight and fight those guys either.

Im with you 100% on trashing Haye for the way hes conducted himself at HW but now you just sound desperate and butthurt

But the fact is he didnt.

The IBF title was stripped. You know this.
