Thread: why doesnt haye go for the title??

i cant understand why haye is making his move up to heavyweight now that he's the number one chalenger at cruiser. haye hasnt even had 20 fights yet but he hits very hard and would have an awesome chance at knocking out mormeck if haye turns up well conditioned. i know the hayemaker is into a lot of that new age training bollocks but he's earnt a shot at a title now and cant see why he doesnt take it, because he is a few years away from another title shot if he stays at heavy. what do you all reckon?

I think he still plans on fulfilling his mandatory with the WBC against Mormeck, everyone knows he tried to get WBO "Champion" Enzo Macrenelli (still a great fighter btw) in the ring but negotiations didn't do so well.

yeah i was gutted when the enzo fight fell through. the hayemaker was advertising it on his myspace page and everything. that would have been an awesome fight i couldnt see going the distance.
i hope your right and he does go for the fight with mormeck because i think it is a hell of a shame to pass that oportunity up to stay at heavy. but the last pics i saw of haye he was looking much larger like he has really filled out to a heavy weight. he didnt really look like someone who plans to come back down again.

Mormeck has only just fought so that fight cant happen yet and since Haye has always planned on making the move to heavyweight anyway he may as well test the water there now before winning the Cruiserweight crown then moving back up permanently. Plus Mormeck is a big puncher, as is Enzo - since theyre both potential opponents down the line then being in with a legit heavyweight will be good for Haye.
