David Haye's Last 5 opponents

[erics44]

not his fault, but Im saying he is hyped-to-infinity, undeservedly.

you could look at it another way

audley (multimillion pound all british heavyweight title fight)
John Ruiz (his mandatory, been in with some of the best HWs of the last decade and never embarrassed, and had got better with age)
Valuev (WBA world champ, winning the title at only his 3rd fight at heavyweight)
monte (first fight at HW, stepping stone for all the top HWs)
enzo (very credible cruiserweight champ and for the unified undisputed cruiserweight championship)

not too bad i dont think, not many boxers in the world at the minute can claim such high profile fights for their last 5 fights

so stop complaining and enjoy the ride

Ruiz never was embarrassed? what about the shutout beating he took from a former Middleweight in Roy Jones? then James Toney who also repeated the same whooping (but came out positive for illegal substances, supposedly something to heal tear damage), and then there was Tua

and Valuev shouldn't have even had the strap due to the fact that a 46 year old Holyfield was robbed against him

valuev was the world champ and yep ruiz was never embarrassed, you can talk about the tua fight as an ebarrasment but that was the only real slip in a very successful carear at the top

like haye or not he is a worthy world champ, and an exciting one

ruiz was the mandatory which isnt hayes fault
