If Haye returned would it be the biggest HW comeback ever?

    We know Foreman and Vitali got credit for their comebacks, although they were quite lackluster in hindsight (Foreman lucky punch vs. glass-chinned former LHW Morrer, Vitali against shot and pathetically unskilled Sam Peter)

    Hytoethetically, if Haye came back from this devastating injury and won the HW championship once again, how would you rate this come back? Certainly it would be another global blockbuster event from the exciting master salesman.

    Just behind his previous comback, but not close to his 4th in 2017.

    Foreman's run, Jeffries against Jack Johnson, Vitali against Sam Peter, Louis against Ezzard Charles... all great.

    The better question is; would Haye's comeback be bigger than Riddick Bowe's mid 00's comeback.

    Foreman's punch was not a lucky punch. Moorer was eating many right hands for too many rounds and his legs gave in.

    Moorer has only been KO'd three times, twice against two of the hardest punchers ever and by Holyfield who was a great counter-puncher. He did NOT have a glass chin. Idiot ******.

    No. The hype surrounding Tyson's post prison comeback will always be bigger.

    Erh - Ali's comeback after his Vietnam ban? That's the best one.

    If Haye never returned it would be greater than his comeback tbh.
