What the fuck are you lot on about? Haye has said he was moving to Heavy for over a year. He fought at Heavy against Bonin and said "I am having one last fight down at Cruiser against Mormeck". He has not suddenly said he is moving up, were you guys even following his comments and fights this past year?
Enzo is not being dissed for ducking Haye he is being dissed for fighting the likes of Bobby Gunn, for then announcing a bout against Sellers who has been retired for 3 years and is utterly shot, and for hyping Sellers as a huge danger. A fight so disgraceful that the BBBC would not sanction it. Enzo then announces another no hoper as his next opponent and hypes that too. He is being mocked because he fights guys like Gunn and trys to make fights like Sellers sound credible Haye instead fights guys like the Cruiserweight Ring Champion. |

Macca wouldnt get half that hate if he didnt fight cripples for his title and then talk himself up as the best cruiserweight in the world. Haye at least tries to back up what he says and looks to fight the best. |

My prefered method of dealing with Macca is the mute button, and media blackout til he fights someone with a pulse.
I think he has talent (not Haye talent but talent) and a great trainer, but til he steps up I'm not interested. |

Despite this being a fantastic win for Haye there are some GLARING flaws here. Haye is chinny at cruiser and takes right hands leads like there going out of fashion.He doesnt even bring his left up to protect his face. Thats a fundamental 101 in boxing. That doesnt bode well when Mac is a world class puncher in the same ilk as Haye.Both can bang with authority with Haye being a possibly more concussive puncher.Either way with 2 guys that can bang and 1 with glass for whiskers that makes for an even money bout no matter what your bias may tell you. |

Can Macranelli take a big shot?He should fight Mormeck over there in Paris(if he`s got the bottle)and we would find out if his chin is any better.Mark Hobson wobbled him a couple of times in their first fight.

On the chin issue...
I can guarantee that Enzo Maccarinelli has a worse chin than David Haye. David will be the first to admit his chin is hardly Toney-esque, but find me an example of him being shaken by a shot to the chin. Thompson? No. Mock? Temple. Mormeck? Temple. Twite? Temple. Fuck it, maybe he has a glass temple. Whatever, the guy can take a shot. He's taken FLUSH shots from Danny Williams, Sultan Ibragimov, Alex Gurov, Kelvin Davis and a ton of other heavyweights in the gym - a lot of the time without headgear. Maccarinelli is improving all the time, but he's been buzzed plenty in his career. Bruce Scott fucked him up. Swaby obviously, too. Mark Hobson had him going, and Hobson can't punch. Marcelo Dominguez had him gone as well, but Enzo was helped by the bell. When Enzo gets caught clean, there is always a reaction. Just watch the footage. |

But the big issue is that for all his crap fights and his bullshit, Macc has gone away and worked. His defence is 10 times better than it used to be and he has worked on his stamina etc to improve his resistance etc. |

I don't care about chin, temple etc...to me it is punch resistance, yes a temple shot is worse but when Mock has you gone you know you have a shit resistance. Guys like Tua etc have been caught on the temple and it is not an issue. |

i cant believe this argument is going on.......who has Macca beaten? Who
Is there anything to suggest Macca could beat Mormeck....beating braithwaite who had been pretty inactive for two years is the highlight so far...although to be fair its not the deepest division talent wise.....which makes macca lack of ambition even more startling |
