No he KHANT Liame is right whats the debate, haye is already a unifieid champ, lineal and ring champ. So for him to end up like Khant then he has to become a unified, lineal and ring champ and we all know he khant do that at 135 |

I've not read the whole thread but Haye can't be like Khan - Haye has shown he is willing to take on the best and take risks to get to the top.
The whole point with Khan is that he fought nobodies, claimed to be world class, called out pacman and Hatton, and got knocked out by the 108th best LW in the world. Totally different. Although obviously Haye could be KO'd at HW. |

Whether Haye wins or gets KO at Heavyweight is not the point. Khan is a nonentity whereas Haye is a proven world champion who unified the title taking on all comers and doing it the old fashioned way. To put it politely Khan is nothing at this stage.

I havent read all the replys on the thread, so dont know if the thread is tongue in cheek.
All I will say is this. Khan got caught cold, it happens in boxing. Look at Pac-Marquez1. Marquez got caught right away, & was down & out. However, somehow he got back to his feet 3 times against all the odds, & once he warmed into the fight & got used to Pacs power the Pacman couldnt put a dent in him from round 2 onwards, despite Pac hitting him with some powershots throughout the fight. In fact, most thought marquez was robbed, despite his disasterous start. Its boxing, being caught cold can happen to anyone. Khan simply got caught too early, & before he knew it he was beat. Man, Khan didnt even have a mark on his face the next day, which tells me the punches he got Ko'd with werent even all that hurtful. Fighters need to warm their way into a fight, look at Duke McKenzie. He achieved a helluva lot, but went in against a unknown puncher just like Khan did, got caught cold & lights out. & no one can tell me McKenzie was china chinned. It happens to fighters, young & old, inexperienced & experienced. As for Haye, even my scottish ass has to admit he could be deadly at heavy. Power thrills but speed kills s the old saying goes, & Haye certainly has the speed to dismantle a few of the heavyweight champs out there just now, & after watching Vlad Klits last fight, I would back Haye to cause the upset. Right now Haye is on completely different level to Khan. However, its too early to write off Khan just yet... Too many people on these shores write off a fighter if they get an L on their record nowadays, its a british phenomena I will never get my head around. |
