    David Haye vs Oleksandr Usyk at Heavyweight

    In Haye's heavyweight prime, who takes it?

    Haye destroyed a prime Chisora in 4 rounds which Usyk could not.

      If Slow Chisora can land the right over and over then Haye is knocking him out with it.

        David Haye via 6-8 round knock-out.

        David Haye at his peak or even just after 'Had better movement, slightly more hand speed, greater punching power, and I also think he was physically stronger than Usyk' Haye fought Chisora head on, and he was not rag-dolled or forced to change his tactics 'Haye carried on with those tactics and knocked Chisora out' Haye clearly stood up or was not as phased with Chisora's strength to the same degree as Uysk was etc

        Haye was quite a good boxer also, he had to execute near perfect boxing tactics and discipline to defeat Nikolai Valuev.

        Even when Haye fought Kiltschko 'A peak Kiltschko had a extremely difficult time landing on him, those where the positives of that fight from a technical perspective' If Haye came to a cognitive decision, that he does not want to get hit 'He could avoid most heavyweights offense'.

        Haye was clearly the better heavyweight for me 'There will be people now trying to make out that Uysk has greater boxing skills 'But Does he really?'. Usyk gets hit more often than David Haye, and unlike Haye 'Uysk is trying to fight the exactly the same way he did as a Cruiser weight at Heavyweight.

        David Haye became a ambush fighter at heavyweight, tactically.

          Usyk comprehensively outboxes him. Probably stops him.

          Haye’s best win is who? Mormeck. A fight he went life and death in and suddenly he destroys Usyk. Some of you casuals...

            Usyk's "better skills" are just that pivot he does and slightly more clean looking combo punches. It looks nice but when you are eating shots off Bellew and Chisora and can't really defend effectively against them that's not skill.

            Compare Usyk vs Bellew and Chisora to Haye vs Ruiz and Chisora

              Inferior ability to avoid shots and weaker offence. Haye is a better fighter. All Usyk has over him is stamina.

                  Usyk might struggle with the size disadvantage at HW but he wouldn’t have a size disadvantage against Haye.

                  What about technical ability? Footwork? Combination punching? Timing? “Just stamina” FFS...

                  Haye has one good win at CW and ZERO good wins at HW. He’s a better fighter though apparently...

                    And honestly Hayes stamina issues were overplayed, I never saw him have a problem with stamina at heavyweight

                    Usyk would try do his usual "applying pressure" with pitty pat early, take a Hayemaker or two and eat canvas
