David Hayes reaction to Wlad vs Thompson.

...there's no weight limit at heavyweight so if you're able to make cruiserweight you're a little suspect. Evander Holyfield didn't fight Buster Douglas or Mike Tyson right away...he had to EARN his shot.

If Haye wants to demolish his career then fine go ahead and fight Wlad and get exposed AGAIN....but if he's smart (which maybe he's not) he'll work up to a fight with Wlad by fighting tall heavyweights and heavyweights with good power and a good jab.

No but there are Light heavys who have stepped up and beat belt holders in there first fight. Does anyone remember a certain Roy Jones Jr?

True but Roy was a well seasoned fighter and Haye still has some green in him....but if Haye wants to fight Wlad first fine but he's going to wait for a while

I agree with you Lyle I think he should fight some of the top 10 fighters first before going straight for Wlad. I'm one of the few on here who seem to respect Wlad and I see him as a serious danger if he connects with Haye. The Only thing is the same can be said the other way around and I think that Haye has got the speed advantage over Wlad and I think that will tell when they do meet eventually!

I just hope one day Wlad gets some respect for knocking someone out

He gets mine everytime. No matter what anyone says about him, the heavyweight division has never been as poor as it is today and hopefully this with Haye can be the beggining of the end of that but if there was no Wlad we really would be in a shit place with the big men at least we have got a no1 and then whoever beats him will be no1 and so on. He's single handedly carried the division for over 2 years now and we should at least thank him for that!

I agree, it is not his fault the division is so poor. He can only beat who is there, and he consistently does.
