    I see a one sided beat down by the real deal. Maybe a give and take fight for 3 or 4 rouds until David Haye realizes he can't hurt Evander and tries to stay away. Real Deal ko's him in 8.



    Thoughts?

    Holy TKO 7 Haye...prime Holy at 190-200 would be too agile and quick...Haye had the power to match but that's it...not enough to beat Holy at that weight...

    Haye gets beaten Toney, Quawi, Holyfield at cruiserweight. No doubt.

    Would have been an awesome fight though. Maybe Michael Moore has better shot. I know they fought as heavywights but moore had a lot more power when he was cruiser would have been a better fight.

    holyfield was a beast at cruiser

    too complete fighter,

    power, endurance, speed/agility
    he also had real good footwork/ring generalship

    haye will always have a punchers chance
    would still have been a deacent fight

    I'm a big Haye supporter, but I agree. Those three had far too much skill for David. Holyfield in particular would brutalize him. The Real Deal at cruiser was one of the best fighters ever h2h.

    Holyfield is an elite fighter. Haye is a very good fighter, but not elite. Holyfield is far to active,relentless,durable for Haye.

    Holyfield by KO in 3. Haye has a Glass Jaw.

    Holy would wear him down, for a mid to late round TKO.

    Holyfield was just way to freakish.
