Haye hits harder than George Foreman and is faster. Haye KO1, would probably go down like the Bonin fight. Joe is too small (maybe between 2-5lbs lighter than Haye at their respective bests) and old fashioned (he didn't need to run away in fights=caveman) so it's a no brainer. Next up, Haye hits harder than Leotis Martin so could beat a prime Liston.
Yep, and his modern conditioning, which caused him to gas way easier and quicker than Joe Frazier did, and I'm led to believe this is a good thing that makes modern fighters superior to their outdated counterparts from yesteryear. It all points to a decisive victory for The Hayemaker. Joe would cut down to cruiser nowadays, whereas Haye has moved up now so the fight couldn't happen anyway.
:deal The red meat that Haye eats as well as him living in Cyprus and not breathing in the car fumes has given him immense conditioning compared to likes of Frazier who just about got through 15 rounds...
Haye's slick blackness would ensure that he comes out of the ring looking prettier than he came in. Haye KO -1.
In Manila he would have made it the distance. That fight is a great example of how those old guys would gas...
Agreed Scotty, Lazy fighters back then really they couldn't even work hard enough to get toned up. Likes of Rob Palmer need to see a six pack to know they've put the work in the gymnasium.
While Haye would have beaten Frazier with ease, Chisora does everything Smokin' Joe did but ten times better. Going to be a massacre.
Nice effort, Now that we've had a bit of comedy, nows its time for a bit of reality, just sit back and watch the total epicness of peak "Smokin" Joe Frazier :fire [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcBP5FDPpNA&feature=channel&list=UL[/ame]
Too true. It shows how weak those guys were than none of them had the power to get a KO despite their awful conditioning.
