    Could be an interesting fight.

    Neither of their chins are particularly strong, so I see it ending by stoppage. I got Haye. Whyte's defense is terrible and Haye is much faster.

    Haye was injury prone and on his way out at heavyweight. His best win was against Chisora and trust me he was on the brink from his ankle snapping in half and having to retire from that fight also. Was smart to pull out of the Fury 2013 fights. After having surgeries and rehabbing on hard steriods it's amazing he managed to squeeze out the money grab Bellew fights.

    Would have been glorious to watch Fury roll over him. Another fight where fury would have been an underdog and won triumphantly.

    Whyte's chin is underrated. How many times has he been down? AJ and who else?

    Whyte is chisora mk2, no reason to think Haye v Whyte wouldn’t go the same way.

    Great build up, lots of buzz. Haye pulls out of the fight with an injury excuse a week before the fight. Haye then takes on a more washed up name and wins impressively enough. Talks up another big fight, makes the deal, pulls out a week before with an injury excuse. Rinse repeat.

    Haye beats him up. Whytes mentally pretty strong, good boxing iq...he just doesnt have the tools to stop a beating from haye tho. He gets away with it against chisoras etc...but haye made guys pay for mistakes.

    Chisora didnt do much against haye whereas a much older chisora almost finished whyte off a good few times in that first fight...didnt have the same problem landing as he did on haye.

    Haye was just a higher level

    Makes me laugh how overrated Whyte is on here hahaha. He’s had a good run through some fortune, some grit and some peds. Stop putting him in conversations with top boxers. I see a geezer on here today claim fury is scared of him. What happened to the knowledgeable posters on this forum. Painful

    Haye gets alot of stick for a lot of things and rightly so in some cases and that makes people misremember that he was actually a good, fast athletic and legitimately hard hitting boxer .. I'd take the haye of the chisora fight to stop whyte who while I admire his fight anyone attitude I don't think is that good.. Great jab and left hook when he doesn't go head happy with it also.. Steroids x 2

    He may be overrated but to start off with, a lot of people picked Browne to KO Whyte, then a huge majority of people picked Parker to beat Whyte... then Chisora v2 was going to beat Whyte... then Rivas was going to expose him... now Sasha will KO him. He keeps proving people wrong, he might not look flashy but his style is difficult to deal with.

    Doughnuts picked Browne to KO him. The fact he scraped passed a 35 year old Del Boy twice isn’t such a positive and he pissed hot against Rivas. He’s a fair fighter big strong and game no harm in that but that’s all. Matchroom got men losing there loafs
