    Not really, given his comp.

    Ward, easily.

    Vs a guy he barely beat if at all, who wasnt actually the WBA titlist.:patsch

    You do remember Chagaev beat Valuev clearly, and Wlad subsequently KTFO Chaggy in 4 rds right?:patsch

    The question is clearly p4p I'm a huge fan of Haye but Ward has clearly the better resume.

    No question Haye would splatter him h2h

    Tough question. Haye had more belts at two weight classes and more defenses than Ward. Ward on the other hand, got more attention at super six. They are both good avoiding to get hit, but Haye has more entertaining style and serious ko power. I have to go with Haye.

    Ward: Kessler, Abraham, Froch, Dawson, Miranda, Bika

    Haye: Mormeck, That British guy that gets KO'd all the time, Ruiz, Valuev, Chisora

    Some good wins among the two of them

    Ward unified the WBA and WBC at 168

    Haye beat Mormeck for the WBC and WBA which Mormeck had already unified and then unified with the WBO

    Haye went up to win a side show title t heavyweight and then lost vs Klitschko in a poor showing

    Ward is challenging Kovalev for 3 belts at 175

    id say Ward

    Ward's competition was better but honestly, Haye accomplished more. Undisputed in his natural weight class, then grabbed a trinket and became a top 2 guy at HW.

    Based off of level of comp and record, gotta say Ward

    Ward is better boxer pfp, but a little bit boring.
    Haye's style is much more attractive.
