    If you're talking about the future then the first three are out of the equation.

    David Haye looks interesting. It would be good to see what he can do to the heavies.

    After watching the fight David Haye lost on youtube, I don't consider him a threat to any of the champions. Haye is a puncher with poor stamina and a fragile chin. Any current top ten heavy beats him down after round 3.

    After watching the fight Wladimir Klitschko lost on youtube, I don't consider him a threat to any of the champions.

    Oh wait.

    Haye's loss was in his 11th fight against a 40 fight veteran Thompson. Thompson knocked out Sebastian Rothmann in his previous fight, Rothmann then going on to narrowly lose a majority decision against Steve Cunningham in his next fight.

    Wlad lost after punching himself out vs Brewster and Purrity, and simply got KTFO by Sanders. Haye didn't throw anywhere near the volume of punches Wladimir threw and was spent after three rounds. Haye has good power and speed, but fights with both hands low, chin exposed and forgets that sooner or later the guy in front of him is going to punch back.

    I dont see any of these guying doing anything special, Haye got a chance, but once he comes up to the Heavyweight divivion, his weak chin will see more exposure than Paris Hilton's *****, especially against the bigger hitters in the division like Wlad and Peter.

    Haye punched himself out, exactly as Klischko did after having Thompson all over the place in the first couple of rounds. The fight was stopped in exactly the same round as Klitschko-Brewster and he was a hell of a lot greener than Wlad was (Haye had 10 fights before that, Wlad had had 44 ffs!) And if you watch the Mormeck fight you'll see him in the 7th round, taking out a genuine World Champion with a vicious combination of punches. After having been down earlier on.

    Thompson was a big learning defeat for him. To draw conclusions from the manner of it, when Haye has demonstrated since then that he has learnt those lessons is ridiculous.

    I'm surprised and impressed you took all that time to write such a long piece for the sake of irony. Bravo

    What the heck, I'll say it, David Haye will never, ever, in a billion years, be the recognized heavyweight champion of the world. There I said it. I feel better now.

    Williams and Harrison? lol. Haye definitely has the potential, but its too early to tell just far he can go at HW. We wont know until he fights some credible HWs.
