    I think he actually could beat Haye. I think the same way he beat Roy Jones Jr he would beat Haye.

    Haye has poor footwork and leaves him body wide open even though he moves his head.

    I don't usually respond to little girls on boxing sites, especially one appearing to be bleeding as she types. However, I have decided to do you a favor and respond to your call for help.....

    Little girl, if you don't mind, would you expand on your emotional feminine outburst by stating exactly how your boy idol Haye would go about getting position to land this lucky single punch blow on BHOP?

    In my opinion Judy, if BHOP choose to make the fight with Haye, obviously he sees a real chance of defeating the Bu..British fighter probably becasue Haye has average boxing skills, a half decent jab, very inaccurate in his punching, and depends on a sneaky overhand that can be seen from 2 miles away.
    If the fight really happens, then Haye is in trouble. It means that Hopkins has done an evaluation and sees weaknesses that can be exploited enough for him to win.
    Persoanlly, I don't bet against Hopkins when he believes he can win.
    Chances are, if the fight happens, Hopkins will be the underdog, as he always is, and you should know what that means. You lose. :yep

    Hopkins looses obviously... but I think he would surprise people and last all 12.

    You are absolutely, 100% correct. Haye has a punchers chance, and that's it.

    Hopkins maintains distance, counters and steals all the rounds. Unless this is judged by Haye's mom, Adam Booth and his wife, Hopkins takes an easy decision by boxing circles around Haye.

    Arguing this with the Brits is like arguing evolution with the Jehovah Witness.

    Don't even bother. Save your breath. Logic cannot sway blind faith.

    If we were asking Tarver 4 years ago Vs Haye people would say it was a close fight. Hopkins would take the kid to school as long as he had to make 200.

    Pascal hurt Hopkins on several occasions. Haye is a much bigger, a much stronger, and a far more powerful fighter than Pascal. Hopkins may get 10 counted here. Haye would catch this older/faded Hopkins with something he normally wouldn't get caught with.

    At some point Haye would catch Hopkins and imo hurt him badly. I see it going the same way as the beginning of the 1st Pascal fight but Haye would not let him off the hook.

    He said he would give Haye a 20lb advantage so I guess it would be around 200 lbs.
