David Haye - Mormeck

[killersheep]

Legit knockdown in the legal sense, sure he slipped, but no protest from him, so................

We all know Haye is chinny. That is not the question really that we need an answer to. IMO the draining of his body he was doing going into CW fights was ridiculous. At the start of his training camps he weighs around 230lbs, so making 200lbs is losing 30lbs and he is never fat so it is taking a lot out of anyones body to make that kind of weight.

I remember Evander being rocked plenty and struggling like hell in his first fight with Qawi at CW, but when he moved upto HW and stopped having to make weight his chin and even more so his ability recover seemed to improve, this could be the same for Haye, we will have to see. The supposed KD to Barrett CANNOT be counted, whether or not a punch was landed (Hayes head never moved with the shot if you watch carefully and both his feet are sliding forward) he certainly was not hurt and if something did land it was due to his lack of balance that he ended up on the floor.

I don't think for one minute he has a great chin but one thing he has shown is he can get hurt, recover and KO an opponent. That is a decent thing to have. EVERYONE goes down and everyone gets hurt, it's how you react to it that counts and Hayes one defeat taught him a hell of a lot IMO. He put all his eggs in one basket vs Thompson and gassed himself then when he got hurt he had nothing left to recover with, he has not made the same mistake since and his defence is getting much better too. Mormeck is a great example of the fact that Haye is not afraid to take a knee if need be whereas some fighters will stand through a bombardment rather than take a knee and get seriously hurt.

Anyway apparently he is looking awesome in training and has been knocking the fuck out of Tony Thompson in sparring. That's what I like to hear, can't wait to see Audley unconcious now
