    How good is David Haye?

    Ok he has those wide Haymakers,power and some movement but no inside game,no uppercuts.

    So how good is Haye?

    Honestly, he is pretty good. The division lacked a B tier of fighters because the Klits are clearly A-level whereas everybody else was C-level and Haye fills the gap quite nicely.
    He is what Bruno, Briggs, Mercer etc. were in the 90s.

      Not being cheeky but how can you not be capable of working that out for yourself?

            He's as good as his stamina lets him be.

              if they were at heir prime righ now, they'd all be A-class fighters. Well maybe except Briggs.

                The Klits are the current benchmark for A tier and neither of these guys are on their level.

                    He's definitely not under-rated. I like Haye but like one of the other posters says, he's a B level fighter at best.

                    Doesn't really have the skills to be an A level fighter & I think the fight against Wlad proved it. He kept trying that jab to the body & the over-hand right. That might work on a Fraduley, Ruiz or someone like that but in the A class of fighters, its not enough.

                    A lot of credit for what he has achieved in the sport though.
