Barrett weighs in 11lbs heavier than Haye

I don't believe Haye's weight is an issue at all, some small heavies have done very well; Tyson (early), Holyfield, Byrd, Moorer, Ruiz (sadly), etc...The bigger question is whether or not Haye's frame can take the sustained punishment at the heavyweight level and if his chin can endure Heavyweight power as well...His skills and power will make him a threat in any fight, it's his chin that will need to be sound...

One more thing lets not forget Haye hasn't got a bad chin he as been floored with head shots around temple area not by shots to the chin.

I remember when i used to say that about Amir Khan.

Hopefully Haye can take a better shot.

I will say this, when Haye was 'hurt' against Mormeck he actually stood on the advertising board on the side of the ring and i think that's what made his legs appear to go funny like he was dancing. Funny thing was, he didn't even notice and in the post fight interview he said he lost control of his legs.
