Haye's not beating anyone with a belt at this point....he may not even have a shot at challengers like Valuev and Ruiz if he can't carry his power up.
But we don't know because he's never fought a good heavyweight and hasn't ever been punched by a good heavyweight either.
I'm happy you Brits are hyping Haye up so much....maybe Wlad will get credit when he KO's him.....oh who am I kidding you guys will make some excuses about the loss
No one should be picking Haye to win until he actually shows that he is a legit heavyweight fighter.
Its a tough decision, It all comes down really to who lands the first big shot.
He has already fought at heavyweight.. albeit for about 2 minutes.Quote:

Yes, he has fought at heavyweight, but not against anyone noteworthy. I'd like to see him fight a legit Top 10 heavyweight before I start entertaining the idea of whether he can beat the #1 heavyweight in the world.Quote:

Haye better fight and beat somebody before he fight Wlad because he might just be another Lawrence Clay-Bey
I need to see Haye dip into the HW wadeing pool before I put any stock in him above 200lbs. Wlad by KO.
The popular general consensus is that Haye needs to win a fight or 2 against legimate HW's before fighting Wlad, and I agree with that.
For the sake of the division I can only hope he does and wins, convincingly. Haye brings with him a loyal following and a fun personality. I was at first annoyed by his Wlad stalking, but it atleast is giving attention to HW's where there obviously is some scorn and disappointment.
I don't dislike Wlad, but I sure would like to see him tested by someone exciting and mobile. Haye could potentially be that. Time will tell.
Haye, he's gonna smash that boring prick.

Haye is skilled and quick and I'd love to see him win and breath someting back into the div. He's got a big mouth and that'll always sell afight!
Haye is the fukking man. His comedy is hilarious.Quote:

People forget Haye is a NATURAL heavyweight. He said that himself it ain't an opinion ;). He had to starve himself for cruiserweight. He'll be faster at the weight and hit harder at the weight cuz he won't have to starve himself. Yet he will come in great shape as always. Not flabby like Sam Peter etc.Quote:
