Well start with the first decent guy he fought Lolenga Mock - Decent fighter, but a super middle... He managed to knock haye down :huh. Thats right, Haye got knocked down by a middle fighting at cruiser Carl Thompson - Good fighter but older, Haye gassed out trying to get thompson out of there. And payed for it. Hayes only LOSS Alexander Gurov - Decent fighter, Haye Koed him in 1. Impressive Giaccobe Fragomeni - One of Hayes best win. He gave haye a good fight. Later went on to win Vacant title, but then drew with wlodarcyk, and lost to a light heavy weight.... A good fighter, but certainly not elite Jean Marc Mormeck - Hayes defining win to become undisputed at cruiser. Mormeck was a little old, coming off of 2 wars with bell., but it was still a good win. And mormeck had enough left to knock haye down Barett - Best known for giving Joe mesi a good fight :rofl A gate keeper at best, and also knocked haye down Enzo Maca - Won his Wbo belt, because jhonny nelson retired... Making Maccas interim belt, a full belt :yep Haye koed this fool, and afterwords got koed back to back by 2 no named prospects Valuev - Another paper title holder, the belt rightfully belonged to chagaev, but Valuev's title was elevated to full status, when chagaev decided to fight wlad klitchko.... A big freak show who arguably lost to a acient 45 year old evander holyfeild atschatsch So, do they klitchkos really need this guy??? I love watching him fight but, he is extremely overhyped. He knows how to manage his career well, but he is a cherry picker
Describing him as a cherry picker is nonsense to be honest. You don't cherry pick the main man in your division and then cherry pick another belt holder in your first defence.
Do they need him? Strange question, who else are they going to face? Regardless of his record he's got a good following.
No one knows he's a HW pretender better than Haye. He's a decent businessman, but he's well aware that either Klit would ice him and expose him. Mark my word, Haye will never set foot inside a ring with a Klit, not unless Vitali turns 50 and is still fighting .
Baldomir wasn't really the man and Judah only held a belt because Baldi couldn't afford the sanctioning fees from the IBF. There were better fighters than these two at 147 when Floyd fought them, whereas Mormeck had shown himself to be the best cruiser.
Right, but the reason why was because they deemed it was his fault that the Valuev fight couldn't go ahead and it was stipulated that he HAD to fight Valuev. It was hardly a dodgy deal.
They only did it because Don King petitioned for it. He OWNS the wba.... Look at the Wba cruiser champion HE promotes...he isnt getting stripped
I've been doing a lot of reserch into this matter, and this guy ^^^ is spot on in his assessment. I reached the same conclusion myself.
