David Haye: "In my mind, i would have beaten everybody today"

We've seen Fury put on his ass by overhands from non punchers, now imagine Haye's 1 punch KO power along with his explosiveness landing on Fury.

 

He'd lay Joyce out, he looked rocked his last fight by Chrisitan Hammer, had to grab him and take a deep breath and clear his eyes

 

I think Povetkin wins a hard fought decision against Haye. The stiff and robotic Joshua he puts to sleep inside 6 rounds.

 

Yup

 

In his mind, sure, but no where else does that happen.

Usyk and Fury are head and shoulders above him, Joshua is a better heavyweight, and a lot of guys would have a shot at knocking him out because of his chinny chin chin.

 

Cute but too skinny if I want a shot o Latina lovin I’m gonna order a slice of Selma Hayek

 

Usyk has surpassed Haye in almost every metric, and climbing...

Haye was unified cruiserweight champ, Usyk was undisputed.

Haye was a heavyweight beltholder, Uysk is unified.

Haye has respectable list of cruiserweight wins over Gurov, Fragomeni, Mormeck and Maccarenelli, Uysk has a stellar list over Mchunu, Hunter, Huck, Glowacki, Breidis, Gassiev and Bellew.

Haye has a respectable list over heavyweight wins over Valuev, Ruiz, Chisora and Barret. Usyk has only Chisora and Joshua, but Joshua is pretty much better than Haye's entire list.

Haye has four losses, Usyk has none.

Usyk has been stopped or down against Thompson, Mormeck and BellewX2, with an uncredited knockdown against Barret. Usyk has never even been in danger of a knockdown.

Usyk gets extra points for being the road warrior.

You can give Haye power if you want. He had a great right.

Haye had a good, laudable career, and Usyk is one of the best ever.

 

In my mind, I can do everything in the Kama Sutra amazingly well. But I can't. Nor do I really want to, as far as some of it.

 

No way he beats those two... But at his peak vs. Joshua? That's a very winnable fight for him(on that I favor him in) Joshua is the better HW by far in terms of achievement, but very likely loses to Haye h2h. I was no fan of Haye while he was active - diva who pulled out of fights , talked a big game regarding the Klitschkos and failed to deliver... But with all of that in the rear view mirror... It's hard to deny that he was a very skilled operator. With his speed, and counter punching ability it's hard to see him not beating the likes of Wilder, Joshua, Joyce etc.

 

I would also strongly favour Usyk, but you are looking to pick and choose certain times in a career to make an argument
You are basing that on an opinion, which to be honest I don't disagree with, but that also wasn't Haye at his best.
Once again looking at how fights can differ when comparing how Haye looked against Chisora (I'm looking at Haye before his comeback)

 

I'm not saying I rate Haye above Usyk. Calm down.
I'm saying it's easy to forget how good Haye was when prime.
You citing his losses to Bellew when he was past his best is silly. He had a terrible leg injury and before his leg gave out in the first fight was arguably ahead. Some may have had Bellew ahead against Usyk before the stoppage
Point I am making is that all fights are different and that Haye seems underrated nowadays

 

Messy fighter how? Not sure what you mean by that?

 

Even though the tone of this thread seems to be leaning towards Haye being full of ****...I still think he's being overrated lol

 

Povetkin would have knocked him clean out.
