    Who you got then for this all British fight ?, my moneys on big frank to be honest BUT we all know if he gets tagged hard he would probably go into the robot no defence mode he had a habbit of doing when hurt, and obviously hayes speed and power would be hard for him to over come

    But i reckon he would do it to be honest, was watching the lewis fight the other night, and bruno was great early on, he was a more then decent puncher and if he hits hayes chin he would KO him

    I can see Bruno tagging Haye early before it gets to the stage where Frank's always suspect stamina comes into play. Bruno in 5.

    Haye by stoppage, he is brilliant at coming over a jab with a right hand counter and I feel he would land this often against Bruno.

    I would be inclined to go with Haye.

    Both these guys have questionmarks over certain aspects of their stamina and durability (in Brunos case more proven question marks) so anything is possible. I think that Hayes reflexes and ability to draw and counter would win through.

    Bruno by Ko within first 4 rounds, if it goes any further its all Haye.
    We know all about brunos stamina, Hayes still has question marks over it.

    I have to go with Bruno, if for no other reason than because he is a natural (and pretty big) heavy who fought much better competition. Bruno was in there with some of the best ever, including Tyson, Lewis, and Witherspoon.

    Bruno. A real HW with much more HW experience.

    Bruno easily.

    Haye has yet to beat a decent heavyweight, besides the future ATG Sugar Nicky.

    I think there is a solid case for either man, but I find your scenario the most persuasive. Haye by ko.
