If Evander stayed in Cruiser he would of had a longer lasting legacy. There hasn't been a great cruiserweight since Evander.
Check out Holyfield vs Dwight.

I think Haye is much faster than Holyfield, he also hits a hell of a lot harder. If you can't admit that first of all then you admit to your own bias. Holy has the better chin. Boxing skills: Holy is technically sound but restrained, his fighting style is more traditional. Haye is not technically sound or traditional. He's loose, hard to hit but leaves himself open. Haye seems to be able to dodge punches thrown from the traditional boxing stance quite well.
It would make an interesting fight, but in terms of achievements Holy has done more. Haye is also a cruiser atg, just not on Holy's level.
Holyfield was from the 90's era.. That era is every bit as modern as this one and the fighters at the top 20 level overall are actually just as tall.. they don't weight as much because they weren't as fat.
Look at Holyfield's Era.
Lewis 6'5
Bowe 6'5
Henry A****nde 6'7
Tyrell Biggs 6'4
Tony Tucker 6'5
Golota 6'4
those guys weren't midgets...
Lennox Lewis beat the shyt out of Holyfield and will beat the shyt out of Haye.
(along with Vitali and Wlad)
