As a fight he has all the tools and keeps himself in peak physical condition. His speed and power are superb for a Heavyweight and I honestly can't see anyone outside the Klitschko's beating him. The reason he doesn't fight is more to do with money than anything. Haye is all about the risk-reward. Mayweather does the exact same thing.
    Haye was a very good cruiserweight and at heavyweight he manoeuvred himself well to get a title. Haye is nothing like Floyd at this weight division. Haye does not fight because he knows he will get knocked out by a heavyweight.

    He fought the best Heavyweight in the world and din't get knocked out. No Heavyweight he has fought has knocked him out so I fail to see your logic here.

    Haye is no Holyfield he has carefully selected his opponents at heavyweights. He has done it for a reason that his chin is not as durable as it should be at heavyweight. His performance against Wlad was poor and negative. What makes Haye think he does not have to fight Adamek, Arreleo and others to earn a proper shot. He said Vitali must fight him because Vitali has no legacy fight. He thinks way too much of himself.

    Klitschko - 51 KOs
    Ruiz - 30 KOs
    Valuev - 34 KOs

    I don't think you even believe half the shit your saying.

    Just your dislike of Haye clouding your judgement.

    Exactly. Not to mention that Adamek and Arreola don't go looking for Haye.

    This is funny. I am a Haye fan but a realist. I see him for what he is, trying to get the most amount of money for the least risk possible. I know that is the nature of the game but Haye is too obvious.

    How is Mayweather not the same? He'd have fought Pacquiao by now if he wasn't.

    Calzaghe made a career of doing exactly that.

    He fought Wlad, raped Chisora when many were saying he would get his Ass owned and now wants to fight Vitali....how is that the least risk possible
