Haye's situation is no different.

So stop with the "only two heavyweight fights" bollocks.
Is it bollocks I mean by your standards I guess Tyson Fury should have had his shot years ago.

Sure Haye was a cruiserweight champ but did he do anything spectacular? Not in my eyes, he beat Jean Marc Mormeck and that's just about it...Enzo Maccarinelli ain't shit, Tomaz Bonin isn't anything, and his biggest win coming vs Monte Barrett is just plain WEAK.

I'm sorry, but David Haye isn't that special yet, he's never even had back-to-back heavyweight fights, that is just lame as hell
