Haye to fight Hasim Rahman in March

[superheavyrhun]

I doubt this fight will happen.

Why would Rahman want this fight unless they can pay him serious dough? He knows they're not asking him to come over cause they think he'll upset the party.

Credit to Haye though if it happens. The guys got serious bollocks.

If Rahman could sneek a win against Haye imagine that on his record. He needs a big name and hayes chin still has a bit of ? over it. If Rahman was to land a punch like he did against Lewis, its night night time Haye. His defence isnt the best either, so Rahman has a good punchers chance.

For sure, Rahman has a decent chance against Haye.

But fighting for no title and having to travel to England he would ONLY do it for serious money.

I like the fight, especially from Haye's perspective, but don't see how it make's sense.

both need a big win, both have a decent name. I think the fight makes perfect sense. I agree Rahman should take more money, or Haye should go to America for the fight. He will knock him out on home soil and everybody will be happy and he will make more of a name for himself

I think Fenster's talking a fair bit of sense here. For once. Rahman's got a fair bit to lose and not much to gain by coming over to Britain to fight Haye. If Haye loses then Rahman will not get the credit because he'd have been fighting a "jumped-up cruiser" and if he loses then his comeback is shot to hell, and if there's not a big paycheck for him, why?

It is a good match-up for Haye though, a good balance of seasoned veteran and someone who has been losing his higher level fights of late. Haye KO in 4 would be my call.
