Holyfield via decapitation.
It depends, if Haye could box for the entire fight and not try to knock Holyfield out he has a chance, however Holyfield would always get to him and had a deadly left hook, Holyfield would take Haye's shots and probably wear him down late, if not stop him.
But, if we wanna talk about a Cruiserweight toss up fight. Michael Moorer vs David Haye would have been a barn burner! For as long as it lasted.

Moorer at Lt hvy was just a savage. Too bad he jumped division...could have cleaned up Cruiser at time but had yet to be really tested. Think his handspeed and thud goes even with Cruiser Haye.....chin too :-XQuote:

Evander in his prime was a totally different animal to ANYONE in the HW division now. He would be way too much for David despite the fact Haye for me has the advantage in speed and power. Evander with his iron chin could take a lot and walk Haye down and for me either finish Haye in the mid rounds or make Haye reluctant to exchange and ultimately win a lopsided decision.
Haye is like Herbe Hide. Todays version of Holyfield would find a way to win.
