    If he was fighting Sven Ottke he would lose by DQ for that blow.

    Similar to the shot Garcia landed on Khan. Right on the carotids.

    Its legal

    Not quite on the back of the head. Legal.

    no

    It's also due to how he keeps and turns his head.
    Haye is known for rabbitpunches and such (sometimes multiple in succession), but there's nothing wrong with this one.

    The wording of the question threw me off. Yes this is clearly a legal punch.

    It's behind the ear it's not what I would consider a punch behind the head

    no.

    that's what happens when a fighter turns his head much too often.
