Possibly....But here again , let's also not forget that Haye's performance against the likes of Barrett & Valuev was far from being amazing. I'd even go as far as to say that his fight vs Valuev was very disappointing...Valuev even grabbed a few rounds in that fight. Could've been a draw.

Valuev was 7'2", 322 pounds. Haye would have smoked Johnson, Vitali had every advantage v Johnson and never looked impressive even when he had Johnson up close, at 38 he looked slow, not saying Haye would beat Vitali, but Haye's chances look better now.
Sorry but I have to disagree with that one. Golota hit the canvas in one round and quit against Ray ****ing Austin man.
Doubtful. Lewis has struggled to kayo other opponents who were entirely on the defensive. Johnson would have had the courage to open up on Haye, as he is less formidabe than either Klitschko or Lewis, which would give David more of an opportunity to land something, though at heavyweight Haye has been far from impressive. His performance against Valuev was appalling, and the 12th round is the only reason I consider his effort beyond Johnsons. Just remember-KJ was in with a very good heavyweight. David Haye was in with the worst champion in a VERY long time.
Lewis went the distance more than once. Johnson should have been disqualified for refusing to fight back.
I honestly don't know...But i was expecting him to Ko the guy. (considering how fast Haye is , i thought he was gonna be the first to smash the giant by Ko)...I was either underestimaed valuev...either that or i overestimated Haye. Not to mention , Haye himself , predicted that he'd finish valuev by ko. But didn't.
LOL. I guess long gone are the days of LL being classified a "boring, safety first fighter". How time changes perspectives.
