    If Haye fights Rahman we will find out 1 thing for sure and that is if his chin can withstand heavyweight punching power. Rahman though he is fairly shot can still bang a bit. Haye will make for some good fights at heavyweight but I still do not think he will be able to take it to the big hitters like Sam Peter or Wladamir Klitschko. The body mass is just not there for him to do so. As a boxer I have never seen Haye really posses great boxing skills to get him by. He hits hard at crusierweight and that seems to be his ace in the hole. Can he bring it to the heavyweights is our question. We will find out soon enough I guess.

    Hopefully the Bonin fight indicated that Haye can carry his power effectivness up to the heavies. I don't know how tough Bonin is, but it was good to see him get the job done where it took Audley 8 or 9 rounds I can't remember.

    I think (and hope) Haye's power will trouble the lot of the heavies providing he can land, which with his speed I'm sure he will be able to do. Wlad is the main threat as he has good boxing skills and hides behind that long jab, he's pretty fast and athletic too, but its good to see a boxer wanting to go and take on the very best. Thats what Haye is all about.

    Rahman, although a good name is definately on the slide as mentioned, and this is why i keep bangin on about Haye to go for someone like Chris Arreola. Young, undefeated, banger and american. If he beat him by KO it would make the americans really sit up and take notice.

    I dont think Rahman will find his chin . Hasim has become very lazy and is a pretty slow starter. When Haye fought Bonin ( who wasnt known for being chinny ) the speed got to the pole. I think Haye could catch Rahman cold and if I was a betting man Id put money on a victory inside 2 rounds.

    Dan Goosen says Rahman-Toney's pretty much a done deal so who knows.

    If Rahman fights Toney, who will be Haye's first opponent as a GBP fighter?

    At last, a reason to watch a heavyweight fight.
