Comments Thread For: Haye: My Speed, Technique is Enough To Beat Joshua

If his heart wasn't in it, he wouldn't be coming back. Haye has enough money so he's clearly motivated and feels he has something to prove.

If his heart was in it, he wouldn't have talked so much about retiring, retired at times, and been so inactive over the years. Some things are very obvious and this is very obvious.

Let's talk about Haye's chances in mythical matchups after he stinks the joint out against de Mori, shall we?

He spoke of retirement because of injuries sustained. It has nothing to do with heart.

If you walk into the ring half hearted, you get blasted straight back out. Haye doesn't do things by halves.

Haye's speed might bother Joshua if Haye doesn't pull out of the fight....

He's blown all his money

Haye had a lot of talent, but never seemed to have the desire to be great. Now he's 35 and been out of the game for 3 years so we'll see if he has anything left.

He he comes back anything like he was at his best, he would probably fold Joshua like a chair. Don't underestimate the power of Haye, he hits extremely hard. Nobody has come close to knocking out Chisora and he's been in with some big hitters, but Haye first dropped him with a left hand from a southpaw stance and also had Valuev nearly gone with a left in the last round, and that's his weaker hand. No fighter needs to be getting hit flush by Haye. He also has some good speed and even showed some good defence and head/upper body movement at times.

Just a shame he never had any massive desire to be in the ring even before he retired. He gets a lot of flack for the Wlad performance but Wlad didn't really do anything in that fight either. They were both scared of each other. Awful fight.

If that's true then fair do's. That said, Haye wouldn't enter the ring half hearted.

Gaye is an idiot... He hasn't fought in 3 1/2 years and now he thinks he's in position to fight all these top contenders and belt holders. Dude needs to go back into retirement or crawl back under whatever rock he came out from.

If you say so....

I would pick the Gayemaker based on what I know at this point but no telling how the 3 years of partying and bumming rent boys has affected him
