    I would go with Haye, he's a fast starter and skillwise there's no comparison between the two. Haye early ko. It's a case of who lands the first big punch and I gofor the more skilled, faster, sharper puncher in this one. Plus the fact that he's already laid him out in the gime.

    as far as i can tell arreola has a heavyweight's chin and haye does not

    arreola took a couple hellacious shots from big time mccline, the same kinda shots that had sam peter on ***** street... arreola walked through em... travis walker buzzed him and arreola took a knee voluntarily... he collected himself, was up at 8 and then viciously took walker out

    Look Haye's got his weaknesses that's for sure but let's be realistic about such a bout where it ever to occur. This fight is a mismatch in Haye's favor. Chris has power but he's an overhyped HBO fighter who would fair far better in tough man contests. I like Chris and I like Haye but facts are facts.

    Chris has slow feet, slow hands, has nearly no head movement and lunges in to throw looping punches. Chris is great fun to watch but he's a club level brawler who's hasn't yet faced a B level opponent let alone an A level opponent such as Haye. Haye is fast, in shape, has power in both hands and I believe would pot shot Chris and then land his hayemakers knocking Chris out. Chris was dropped by walker and I believe Haye to be much more powerful and skilled than Walker. Say what you will about his courage, chin, and behavior...the guys a boxer..and a relatively good one at that.

    If this fight ever gets made (I hope it does) I'd expect Haye to win by annihilating KO by round 3. Chris of course could catch Haye with a big punch but I don't see it happening. Haye's much to slick for Chris. At best in this fight I give Chris a punchers chance...and a small one at that. I think however that Vitali is to dismantle Chris and that'll be the last big fight he gets for some time.

    You mean in sparring? I am not sure where this rumor comes from. There is a YouTube clip floating around from a couple of months ago where Haye says on Setanta TV how he has "never met Arreola, just seen pictures of him".

    They apparently have never fought each other in amateurs not did they ever do sparring.

    correct. If Haye said they fought at 1 time thats bull****. Anything that Haye or Booth says needs to "taken with a grain of salt" as they say

    for those that dont know that saying... Haye and Booth are full of ****!!:hey

    Team arreola has been saying "We never fought and I have never met Haye" plus Haye himself said "I have never met him, only seen pictures":deal

    so lets put that bull**** rumor to rest :good

    Haye and Arreola both have horrendous chins and punching ability. That spells knockout. The fight doesn't see the cards and I would pick Haye to find Arreola's chin first. That said, I wouldn't be surprised to see Haye going out on a stretcher either.

    Nobody, because Haye would not show up for the fight.

    Haye would pull out of the fight citing a terrible cold or the recent death of his 3rd cousin once removed.

    If the coward ever did step in the ring Cristobal would take his head off.

    Negative. Watch Arreola's fight with Walker. There are other examples as well. His chin is purely bad.

    I don't think Haye would ever want to fight Chris. If they did I pick Cris to finish him in the first 4 rounds.

    Okay maybe I was being hard on Chagaev. But you can't tell me you've got Povetkin and Chambers ahead of Valuev?
