    Default Lennox: I’d have stopped Haye in two rounds

    World Boxing News: Lennox: I’d have stopped Haye in two rounds

    I was reading this, thinking imagine if they did fight, imagine if they could still fight...I reckon Lewis might still have enough in the bag

    I doubt Haye himself would disagree. He has never tried to make himself out to be better than Lennox.

    Then again if he fought like he did against Bruno......

    first time Lewis connected with his jab Haye would get the fear.

    I say one round

    i actually disagree - as much as i rate lennox i think people underrate haye way to much! He is an undisputed cruiserweight champion, dominating mormeck and enzo (admittedly he seemed to struggle slightly against fragomini but hey people have bad fights/off nights whatever the reason was) - He then fought two giants at heavyweight and got clipped properly about once (wlad in the middle rounds caught him perfectly) and to be fair - Haye took the shot! He stopped ruiz, barret and Bonin, Harrison and chisora in 7,6,1, 3 and 5 - all relatively early with no problems as you would expect.

    Yes he didnt perform particulary well against klitscho but in a second fight i would imagine he would have fought very differently - same if he fought lewis! Id say alot closer than many people think! I also think he has the power to do what mccall and rahman did to lewis while lets not forget haye took a flush shot from wlad not too many problems!

    Not saying haye would win but was i to bet i wouldnt be sure which way to go!

    Lewis is a lot more languid in his technical boxing than Wladimir so maybe Haye could stun Lewis off that lazy jab.

    Bit like the Briggs fight. Sounds like fun!!

    No we can't hope for that. He would get massacred now. He's living out retirement in comfort and I'm happy for him.

    Don't agree at all, lewis never fought fast/slick fighters like haye...haye would employ the same tactics as he did with wlad...run!! Difference is wlad is quicker than lewis...

    No he isn't. Lewis was faster than Wlad FACT. Watch how light on his fight he was vs Ruddock

    What would you expect Lennox to say? I would of course love to hear Haye's opinion since he thinks so highly of himself. Lennox would give Haye more chances to hit him than Wladimir did but Lennox would also take more advantage over the clinches as well and I believe he would hook his left hand behind Haye's head and shoot a few uppercuts to Haye's jaw as he did vs Michael Grant.

    Haye is full of respect for Lennox and has basically said he doesn't think he'd have a chance basically! I agree with him.

    Try watching a 238lb Wladimir Klitschko dominate a 213 lb Chris Byrd. 225lb Lewis was unable to sustain that weight as a HW, and ruddock was 230lbs. He got slower and heavier as he aged. Fact.

    Wlad is quicker.

    “I have never seen Wladimir this fast before. His speed is just incredible. His attitude is that of a champion. Sometimes it takes a while to actually feel like a champion… to understand the meaning of being a champion. That is where Wladimir is at right now. He knows this is his time."

    -manny steward.

    Lennox wasn't nicknamed lummox for nothing.

    Anyway i can't be arse with the 'lennox/wlad 10 pages of who's better crap'...

    It's out of respect , he wouldn't say anything else would he! Like none of i.e ali's disciples would say they would beat him, yet imo many would.

    And everything haye say's has an agenda to it anyway....of course he's not going to say he disagrees with lennox, that would make the klitschkos look good! Saying someone wlad dominated would beat lewis wouldn't sit well with even haye himself! It doesn't anyway matter because wlad dominated mercer, jackson and rahman easier than lewis...and tua, briggs, grant, holy, golota, mcall etc were all beaten by wlads opponents too....

    I can't see wladimir saying he would KO schmelling, but we all know he would. Lewis never fought quick agile fighters like byrd and haye so its hard to tell how we would handle them. A 38 yr old holy gave him fits second time round...

    Shit i just started the 10 page debate lol
