Re: David Haye Vs some of the past CW and HW elite...
Good post Daxx. Wouldn't take issue with much of what you say. I might argue that haye would beat Carlos de Leon. but thats about it.
There are some more interesting match ups:
Bob Foster - this would be great while it lasted. Both guys throw bombs but could also be vulnerable themselves. Haye was probably a better technician than Bob, due to his long and illustrious amateur career, so i would lean toward haye being the guy that landed first.
Roy Jones Junior - another very good matchup. Haye would be by far the naturally bigger guy, but he would never have seen someone like Roy. Unlike Ruiz, haye would be dangerous throughout ...... a 50/50 pick-em for me.
George Foreman (Part 1) - only joking, young George would crush Haye like a roach.
Joe Frazier - Haye would be the bigger guy and unless he jumped on Joe early (Joe always started slowly, and haye is a quick starter and a good finisher), Frazier grinds him down and we see something a bit like the Carl Thompson fight with an exhausted and beaten up haye being stopped by the ref around the 9th
