David Haye, is he the biggest cock in boxing?

Barrett is no great shakes but he does know his way around a ring, he may come prepared for Davids idiotic onslaught, he will cover and counter and after a few rounds I see David tiring from his effort to impress and Monte stopping him around the 4th.

I could also see a 1st round KO for either fighter.

Haye doesnt belong in the heavyweight division, only fighters who have good defence and decent chins will do well moving up in to any weight, David posseses neither of these, his chin and stamina are liabilities.

Dont expect too much from Barrett either, Couser banged him out in 2 just a year ago

David is in for a rude awakening and some deserved embarrassment, all the shite everyone has had to listen to from him, cancelled fights and press conferences to announce nothing, Haye is ruining his own career with the help of boxing svengali wannabe Booth.

Booth is the idiot that trained Haye for the Thompson fight

Idiotic Onslaught? Have you seen him fight lately. He doesn't fight like Briggs did against Lennox. The man fights in a calm controlled manner waiting to pounce.

As for Thompson taking the punches of an 11 fight novice then Yes he did but lets remember that Thompson is well known for his toughness, durability and chin and Haye simply took that fight to early.

I'm fairly sure Haye hits harder now than he did in his 11th fight and he certainly picks his punches better.

As Tyson once said "Its the punches you don't see that cause the most damage". Haye has power and speed - great combination.

HAYE-THOMPSON WAS A CLOSET CLASSIC. THOMPSON WAS TEAK TOUGH AND HAYE LEARNED FROM THAT FIGHT. NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED ABOUT TO LOSING CARL--ASK EUBANKS.
