I thought Haye said he was weighing 227. Why the weight loss? Maybe he felt he performed better when he took off some of the fat, but as I recall, in those pics he was pretty ripped.
Oops
230 pounds I thought? Isn't that what he said he was?
It's a good weight for him, no point being something he isn't by putting on three stone then realising he can't move after three rounds with the extra dead weight.
That's a good weight for Haye. I'm glad he didn't bulk up too much for this fight.
I agree 215 is a good start weight, and we'll see how much speed and explosiveness he retains.. like Bomp said no use put on extra weight right now just to be blowing out his ass after 4 rounds.. Im sure by the time he fights Klit he will be up in the 225-230 mark, if the speed is still there
215 is tiny by HW standards though, especially if power is his tactic.

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
I think Hayes weight is not a problem when it comes to his power if he lands that overhand right i think a man of anysize would feel it, i think to impose himself at that weight will be a problem especially against the Klits, i honestly cant see him imposing himself against them two, he will be blown away by them both imo.
How the hell did this become a Calzaghe thread?
Give it a rest kids.

I was just saying that Miles says Haye is a dick when his man Calzaghe is one of the biggest dicks going as i say he is 46-0 but it doesn't mean he is'nt a dick and had he been a fan of another fighter i wouldn't have said anything but he is a Calzaghe fan and Calzaghe is a dick this has nothing to do with HATE either.
Haye's weight is not a problem Tyson and Holyfield were only 210lbs-220lbs in there best days at Heavyweight and he is 6ft 3inch he will fill out a bit more with time i think he will end up about 231lbs.
