David Haye would KO Ortiz & AJ

[fanofslug]

Haye is quite possibly the most overrated boxer in the last fifteen years. He had a few decent wins as a cruiserweight and then jumped up to heavyweight and cherrypicked, avoided genuine threats and cashed out with one of the most gutless efforts in championship history against Klitschko.

People think this con-artist is more talented and skilled than he actually is. Now he's old and pumped up on a roids, negating whatever advantages he once did have over most heavyweights. He'll get rekt by both Joshua when he's ready to cash out again (Ortiz isn't even a remote possibility.)

Anyone who is getting on in age and in good physical shape is always accused of taking peds by default. Can we stop this nonsense? If you don't have solid proof, then they're innocent until proven guilty. Haye is a British boxer by the way, over there they have more stringent conditions and he leads a clean lifestyle.

Haye is fairly gutless and won't get near Ortiz. He vs Joshua would be great though. 50/50.

BTW, poor evaluation of Ortiz. Watch his other fights.

Yes, you're right. I watched a few of his previous fights on youtube, but against a 44 year old Thompson he looked slow and cumbersome.

He was slow this weekend. I think a combination of being super busy (4 fights in 9 months) and the fact that Tony is deceptively dangerous had a lot to do with that. It's easy to rag on Thompson but he's not a complete slouch and he gives everyone a hard time. Regardless, Ortiz still put him down several times and had him out in 6. Not many have done that so Ortiz clearly had the right strategy.
