    I feel Haye was awful v Thompson when he wss ko`d, Carl couldn`t KO Eubank who was moving up from super middle, Bellew would of easily beaten Thompson and Eubank, so I feel he could of beaten Haye at cruiser, but who`ve you got?

    I don't know. They are both pretty crap.
    I'd lean towards Haye though.

    Must be trolling.

    Bellew own words were he wouldn't have lived with Haye in his prime.

    I think Haye gets a bit over rated, the talk he gets now of the prime Haye and the glory nights is a bit overboard when you analyse it. He under achieved to my mind, which seems silly seeing as how he is not a natural heavyweight and became a champ, its how he did it where things fall short for me. he probably should have just stayed at his ideal weight but money talks. He is not an all timer, but he is a few levels above Bellew. Tony gets whacked out Maccarinelli style.

    Yeah, at his best Haye's clear better than Bellew.
    The "prime Haye" stuff is a complete joke. A "GREAT cruiserweight". No, not really. His cruiserweight resume is very thin too.

    Haye was outboxing Bellew past prime and on one leg.
    The Haye that beat Enzo sparks TB

    Mismatch , Enzo style. Thompson fight was pure naivety on Haye's part against a capable veteran

    Perhaps he doesn't tell lies after all then. Easily Haye in 4/5. Could be anytime from the first bell tbh

    You've created a thread asking a question even Bellew himself has admitted the answer to. Give your head a hard, swift wobble and contemplate what you've become my son.

    So what you are saying is that they must have a list of sexy elite names on their CV? Does the eye test not count, so how good are they cannot be seen unless they have at least 5 elite wins or so? Mike Tyson and Joe Calzaghe's CV's were absolute tripe! Didn't stop us seeing what they were.
