Thread: David Haye next british heavyweight hope

Were all waiting for the next british heavyweight world champ could he be down at cruiserweight could it be David Haye at 6ft 3inch he has the frame to carry 17 stone and he can whack

i read that the hayemaker was gonna make an apearence at heavy. he could do quite well if he can get more used to going 12 rounds cos i cant see him getting away with knocking nearly everyone out up there like he does at cruiser.

let him fight enzo first!!!!

Yes i heard he was guna have a fight at heavy in his next fight he was really good in his last fight he as come a long way since the thompson defeat

he will knock Enzo out no bother he struggled with Hobson in the first fight

I saw his last fight live and didn't find him very impressive , I dont think he has what it takes

He's too small and he's not durable enough.

Holyfield was able to jump from cruiser to heavyweight and people still thought he was too small and he was 6'3 as well. But Evander had great stamina, work ethic, and he took a good punch.....Haye doesn't

poom get some glasses and lyle holyfield only ever weighs about 218 at best haye is a larger frame than holyfield

Yes......BUT the heavyweights were much smaller when Holyfield moved up too.....no 6'7+ 240-250 pound power punchers back then.

Evander was always in shape, he worked really hard in the ring, and he took a lot of punishment....he's a one of a kind warrior.

Haye is no better than Audley Harrison!


Holyfield took shots from George Foreman, Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Riddick Bowe......Haye couldn't take it from Carl Thompson.

I think Haye will come good with age you watch i predict world cruiser and heavy champ

ok ill justify myself a little more..

He just didn't look that quick and powerful liek everyone makes out , and seeing as he was having trouble with the quite small Italian man, i dont know how he would cope with the real big guns.

He will win a genuine world title at cruiser and heavy you mark my words poom

At heavy Haye will be nothing else than another Verion of Herbie Hide...great punch, but poor chin and weak stamina.

I saw him, sure he can punch, but he needs to do a lot more in order to crack fighter like Sam peter, Klitchko or even a small heavy like Chambers.

hmmm ok

I think he definately has a chance, but it just think at the moment he is all power and not much skills

Haye would get knocked out against any big punching heavy.

I like Haye though, he puts on a show and is exciting to watch. He's like Audley Harrison should be.

Unfortuantely I fear he's got Audley's chin though
