    He was a very good amateur and easily the greatest cruiserweight of his generation. You could make a decent argument that he was probably in the top two or three cruiserweights who ever operated at that level.

    He was always entertaining to watch and a fantastic athlete with great reflexes, power and timing.

    Unfortunately, his heavyweight career was a ten year con job. He pulled out of multiple fights and I do think his unorthodox training methods contributed to the terrible injuries he suffered.

    Fighting the likes of Audley Harrison, Monte Barret, John Ruiz, Valuev and the mighty Arnold Gjergjai and Mark de Mori (never mind the journeyman Bellew) did not deserve big purses, media exposure or pay per view.

    I never thought his marriage would last long, as David is clearly in love with himself more than he could possibly give to another.
    If God wanted us to be vegetarians, why are animals made of meat ?

    I was not conned and I told all yall about Haye from the get go! So much so that people were all "Why do you ALWAYS call out David Haye! You're just a Hater!".....oh I hate that sumbeech alright, people we thinking he was the next Naseem Hamed....they weren't far off. He would beat anyone sans pulse and then get his ass kicked and retire because of a bad pinky toe


    This one I certainly called, Haye was a bum he is a bum, he was a cruiserweight, best cruiserweight of his era who cares, he did diddly poo in the heavyweight division. Audley, Monte Barrett, Valuev, Ruiz, Chisora, De Mori, Gjergjaj....those are the heavyweights David Haye beat....pathetic
