Yeah I think so too. On second viewing the Klitschko fight was more competitive than people give him credit for. Yes Wlad won comfortably, but Haye was by no means embarrassed, schooled or made to look silly, and I don't think people appreciate the fact that not only was he up against an elite level fighter, but the size difference was huge. Still the most likely man to beat either brother although Wlad would still be favorite. I've always felt Tyson Fury has been underrated on this forum.
I think Craig Mcewan deserves a mention. Very unlucky in prizefighter, and also against Andy Lee. He should be fighting the guys at the top of the division
I actually think he is overrated But he could get a lonsdale shot and that would be a good test of where he lies now he is back I understand the decision to go In prizefighter but I think it's backfired
On ability its David Haye. In the whole world he is the only old school heavyweight physically, who is a massive threat to all the super heavyweights. You have people like USS Cunningham even though he gave Tyson Fury a real hard fight..? All he has done since is cry and moan about the fight. A big deal is made about Floyd Mayweather fighting Alavarez, David Haye is fighting guys on average 2-3 stone heavier than himself! and still capturing the WBA heavyweight Champion coming from Cruiser weight is a great athletic achievement. Fairplay Carl Froch is a tough guy, but skill for skill and pure ability...? David Haye is head and shoulders pound for pound above anybody in Britain. David Haye has more athleticism and speed than most middleweights for ****s sake.
I disagree with you PK, take a good look at David's record and tell me what top HW he beat? Yes he was a super CW speed,movement and punched hard, but a top drawer CW will always beat the guys David has at HW. froch has beaten nearly everyone at his weight and P4P is easy No1
Olusegun is not a Brit he's Nigerian. I would pick Jamie McDonnell and also Darren Barker who is a very good boxer aswell.
How many CW in history have made the move successfully to the heavyweight division..? Not many. The Heavyweight division is the most deserve and toughest division on the planet, no matter what the media conditions people to think. David Haye is level's above Carl Froch in ability, and STILL capturing the heavyweight title is the biggest title in this sport! Carl Froch has never been undisputed at any weight and regarded as number 1 at Super-middle weight! These are the facts man. As a boxing coach, you must know what ability means...? Are you trying to tell me Carl Froch is a more gifted fighter physically and technically..? Quit smoking that crack man.
Is he not just unsung rather than underrated? I think most of us on here know he's a very good boxer, there just never seems to be much to say about him!
