    How would Haye done against britains other heavyweight champs?

    Im interested to hear people's opinions on this, who would you have picked between Haye and
    : Lennox Lewis
    : frank Bruno
    : herbie hide
    : Henry Akinwande

    Personally I think he'd lose to Lewis, Bruno and Hide. If he fought like he did against valuev and wlad I think he could see the final bell, but if he tried to fight aggressively, I think he'd be a KO victim against all 3. Against Akinwande I could see him pot shotting much like he did against valuev and hoping for the big KO, which he would probably get considering Akinwande didn't have world class power to keep Haye off him and could be quite lazy with his jab.

    Lewis is one of the best ever super heavies, as highly as I rate Haye, a natural cruiser is not beating a focused Lewis. Just not happening. Lewis is the best HW of all time IMO.

    Honestly though, Haye's blend of speed, skill and power would be enough for me to give him a very good chance against the rest. As crap as the fight was, Wlad-Haye showed just how hard it is for big HW's to put a meaningful punch on Haye.

      Easy KO for Lewis. Bruno UD. Haye beats Hide and Akinwande by KO.

        I think if he tried to fight aggressively against hide he would have problems. Look at hides fight with bowe, he kept getting dropped but kept getting back up and he was hurting bowe. Big daddy was a much bigger puncher than Haye and had a much better chin, he was also much bigger, Haye and Hide would have been similar in size, speed and power
