    It was a tall order....don't you think at 21 winning the HW world champions and unifying is a tall order as well?

    Spinks? how old? and he was a robot walking in that ring, he didn't even want to be there, you can't discredit Buster because Tyson wasn't '' all there'' and then use Spinks as an example:patsch Tyson fought no live opponents, Haye ruined Macca ffs.

    Not when force fed a diet of boxing bums.

    Khans achievement is more impressive than Tysons, at Least Khans fought some legit fighters.

    LMAO at this thread.

    I like Haye, but he isn't going 3 rounds with Tyson.

    Not at all convinced that we have yet seen Haye at his peak especially at heavyweight.

    What? Haye shouting at the umpire for Monte pushing him over as he slipped?

    Fail.

    I hear you on that BUT who did he fight in his last fight again? Exactly my point...
    Prime Tyson was like a pitbull without a leash...He could box, had excellent head-movement and punched like a runaway Freight Train. Thinking about it now, I give Haye 5 rounds max against Iron Mike (and thats being generous)

    Well I'd take Barrera out for a stater , he was utterly shot to **** and the fight should have been stopped in the first ( also Khan is a lww and Barrera's best days were at superbantam / feather )

    and i would rate Berbick , Smith , ( unquestionably ) Spinks and Green ( to name a few ) as good or better than Kotlenik.

    Haye and Khan are guys I like but for his ( admittedly breif ) peak Mike beats almost anyone.

    very hard to say how good haye is gonna be at heavyweight yet, but reckon tyson in his prime would be far to much for him.

    By his own admission, Haye doesn't like fighting shorter fighters who pressure from a low stance. Prime Tyson beats Haye big time, and I'm a huge Haye fan who thinks he's a year away from ruling the division.

    a prime tyson was way before douglas.......douglas came after a few setbacks outside the ring.
    a prime tyson would not be hit flush by haye and a prime tyson was more accurate and powerful than haye and posessed more movement and speed
