    A lot of things in David Haye’s mind aren’t reality lol.

    Don't think so.

    Both AJ and Pov put him to sleep....even if his pinkie toe is healthy.

    Fury and Usyk would have dominated him.

    AJ vs Haye is an awesome matchup, very winnable by Haye, but Id still edge it towards AJ.

    Haye vs Wilder is a much better matchup and this one might be 50/50.... tremendously explosive fight that could end any second whoever lands their bomb first. Haye is a better operator, but recent Wilder (not the one coming up) has underrated cunning, patience and caution. He would stalk, stalk stalk and stay long, until he saw his openings. Would be interesting to see how Hayes ability and athleticism would deal with that.

    Would favor Haye over the rest.

    So Haye, imo, would be 3rd at best, but also possibly 5th.

    I actually think Haye would have a decent chance against Wilder

    I'm sure he genuinely thinks that, it's the champions mentality. He's wrong though. I heavily favoured him to beat Fury when they were meant to fight. I'd have been wrong.

    Quits against Fury and gets KOd cold by Wilder.

    KOs the rest. except BRUTHA USKY might give him problems. and Big Joey Joyce might give him problems with that chin.

    Prime Haye? The likes of whyteleafe wallin joshua parker chisora ruiz level of competition all get knocked out cold.

    No, but he was a messy fighter who relied on speed along, Usyk has great fundamentals, he`s on a different level.

    Usyk would have toyed with Thompson who struggled with Chris Eubank, could you imagine anyone other than Roy Jones moving up to cruiser from 168 and troubling Usyk?

    Fury, Usyk no.. Joshua id say would be a slight favourite but I wouldn't be surprised if Haye sparked him.. Wilder is 50/50 depending on who lands first and everyone else I'd probably favour him over tbh.. the guys a complete nob but he was a great athlete and explosive and if you watch his fights back was an excellent boxer as well had great movement.. Haye Povetkin would have been a belter

    Hayes era of heavyweights was just as bad if not worse than today's and he was irrelevant
