    I would understand hyping him to that point if he hadn't lost to Wlad, but getting completely outclassed by the only ATG he fought makes it really hard to rank him highly at the weight.

    Stop it! Haye was great last night but he is nothing like Foreman and nowhere on his level.
    Haye is 210 pounds,former CW with only 7 heavyweight fights. Haye is only about 6'2 and a counterpuncher.

    Foreman was a little over 6'3,weighed 220-275,ATG HW,2 time HW champ, Olympic gold medalist,one of the most physically strong fighters ever and had a great chin.

    Foreman is bigger,stronger,has more power,has a better chin,fought in a better era against ATG opponents etc

    Haye is nothing like Foreman at all.

    He beats Derick Chorsia and all of a sudden he's a all time great heavyweight?

    I have been Following boxing for 50 years and I really don't know why boxing EXPERTS like the guy who started this post have not been inducted in the boxing hall of fame. He knows things that most of the real world do not know. We can only see with our own eyes. And hear with our own ears. But I guess David Haye is the greatest of ALL TIME. Hell he beat the best of the best in every way shape or form. So We will all have to live with the fact that Audley will only be in the top 10 of all time as well as Dereck and The beast from the East.
    So the list MUST be something like this for all time greatest HW.

    1. David Haye
    2.Dereck Chisora
    3.John Ruiz
    4.Nikolay Valuev
    5.Monte Barrett
    6.Audley Harrison

    Oh No we have to stop at 6 Because thats all the fighters David has beaten. As we all know that the fight between him and Wladimir Klitschko should be a no contest because of Davids Toe . And the fact that Wladimir Klitschko did not knock him out.
    So there you have Boxing in the Heavy Weight division can now be totaly cancelled and no other fights should take place until David Haye says he has another big meaningful fight that his fans will want to watch. All other fights are meaingless. Hail King David the Savior of Boxing.

    Thanks for starting this post I can now live my life in peace and harmony.

    It wouldn't be hard. Start with every legitimate world champion at heavy and work forward. Mix in some contenders from stronger era's. Haye doesn't even belong in a conversation like this one.

    What he said . There are more deserving fighters that really did fight the best of the best in their era. David is not one of those fighters. He mouthed his way into the Heavy weight division.
    And the fights he has had are all ****. He lost to the only good fighter he fought.
