    You seriously need to get off the Haye bandwaggon, how much evidence do you need? Haye just got knocked clean out of the ring by a career LHW. He knocked wobbled by a LHW in Llolenga Mock. Haye got knocked out a LHW tiler in the amateurs. Haye was stopped by a 42 year old Thompson.

    To argue Haye can't be beaten by smaller, non SHW fighter is borderline lunatic!

    you dont know what you are talking about...did you MISS the Wlad fight and all those clear shots he ( Haye ) landed...how many shots would anyone from the 80's land? how many guys could switch from south paw to orthodox and have speed and power?? I'll wait? Last time i checked his only real HW at his peak loss was to Wlad. the closest thing to haye would be Spinks,who would have really nothing to get over on Haye with.

    Bandwagon ?...try again! :rolleyes:

    Ridiculous how people try to discredit David Haye as if he wasn't a good fighter. 2008-2012 David Haye would
    beat most heavyweights from the Larry Holmes era.

    Holmes vs Haye would be a good fight in itself.....as always ALL posters will always have an agenda on here. Thats the good thing with me..i have NO interest in ANY fighter to pump them up or use angles to suit my view...i tell it like it is,hence alot of haters ...but some listeners..oh well....lol

    Haye was neither a HW power puncher nor was harder to figure out than Dokes. Bellew had Haye figured out before he even got into the ring against him.
    Prance about , look for an opening and spring in with an over hand right. Thats Haye in a nut shell.

    Your every post reeks of somebody who only started watching the sport last year. Even some of my haters would agree that you are the biggest clown to ever have an account on this forum.

    Even though i don't consider comparing Era's as in my opinion its all just fantasy.

    What is considered the 'greatest'?

    Let's, for arguments sake, just claim that there is just 2 Era's consisting of 20 total boxers.

    Era 1 - Contains the man considered to be the GOAT....Number 1. As well as fighters ranked number 12 through to 20.

    Era 2 - Contains fighters ranked 2 through to 11 in the GOAT ranks.


    Which is 'Greater'?


    That's why for me it is impossible to compare generations.

    There should be no such thing as GOAT....just the GOYG (Greatest Of Your Generation). The rest is fantasy.

    I don't know if I would give Tyson an "era". He only held the title for 4 years, got a piece of it back a few years later, then lost it again only a year later. I don't count his pre-title fights as part of the era. I think the era starts at the start of the title reign. Besides, after he lost the title to Douglas, that is when the division started to become perhaps as good as it's ever been with the likes of Lewis, Bowe, Holyfield, Tua, Mercer, Morrison (well maybe), Golota, Tyson himself, Ibeabuchi, and I'm probably missing a few others.

    The point was made, and was understood by many, unfortunately just not yourself.

    oh, i understand. i understand that youre fairly ignorant and talk out your ass about things you dont understand. the fact that you believe humans can run 1 minute miles tells me that you pick up tid bits of information but dont have the mental capacity to put them together to form a working model. in other words, your ears send facts straight to your mouth, bypassing your brain.
