    I think Listons deadly jab and reach advantage means he takes it probably a lateish KO

    Picking Haye in this fight is like getting two aces at the Blackjack table but instead of splitting them, you tell the Dealer that you'll "stay" on a soft twelve, lol! Yeah, I did the same thing with Edner Cherry over Desert Storm Bradley and that didn't work out too well. Good luck to the Haye Nation and hope your dude doesn't walk into a Zab chicken dance jab in this fantasy match-up. lol

    Liston KO in a shootout.

    Didn't Haye compliment Monte Barrett on the immense power of his jab, something along the lines as it was like a Crusierweights right hand. Imagine how he would feel with Listons jab pounding into his face. :lol:

    Not the most of competitive fantasy match ups here Gaz

    Although i'd go liston all the way i think Haye may have been trying to be kind and gracious to Monte

    This is an insult to the memory of the great Liston.

    Liston's stare down alone would knock the braids outta his head!
