    Sanders had heart, the best straight left in heavyweight history, and had hands like lightening. Haye has a china chin, no nuts, and an untested heavyweight punch.

    Sanders tko2 Haye

    Sanders had all of that!?
    How kind of him to let other people dominate the boxing scene, when with his amazing attributes he could have easily dispatched any and everybody!

    :patsch are you ******ed? no one here is saying that. Everyone is saying that Sanders had a damn good punch and could take a good punch as well. There is alot more to boxing than taking a good punch or recieving one. As Bowe said "The main purpose of boxing is to hit without being hit"

    Sanders is a similar type as Haye, a big puncher who shied away from fighting contenders and wanted to cash out in a losing bout. Sanders of course did end up with one good win.

    Sanders would be favorite against Haye by being a southpaw and a natural heavy but only 3 to 1.

    Corrie has NEVER been fit in any portion of his career. But, as I said a "fit" Corrie Sanders would and could destroy both Klitschkos on the same night as he has already demonstrated that he is a much more natural boxer puncher and better athlete than the two clumsy, stiff, reluctant Bros.:bat1

    ??? He lost to Vitali, right?
    And HARDLY because of his stamina.

    David Hayemaphrodite was knocked down by a 38 year old Monte Barrett, knocked down by former middleweight Lolenga Mock where he had to wrestle Lolenga for a whole minute to save his career, knocked down by the much smaller and shot Mormeck, knocked out by 40 year old Thompson and used the Klitschko brothers to hype himself up not really believing they would grant him a fight and when that happened ran away with his tail between his legs not once but twice in two months. All hail David Hayemaphrodite the savior of the HW division!!!

    I'd still favour Sanders over Haye. Hayes big assets are his speed and power. Sanders arguably had better hand-speed than Haye, plus he had a granite chin - he could've taken Hayes punches. But I don't think Haye could take Sanders' bombs. The argument that Sanders has no stamina is not valid here, since Haye always had stamina problems himself - and the extra 20 lbs of muscle he gained since becoming a HW certainly won't help his stamina problems either..

    Nate Tubbs didn't have any troubling separating Corrie from his senses. Corrie isn't all that good. But he is better than the Klitschkos. Too bad he trained on beer and donuts.

    That's a good analysis. I disagree, but at least your talking sense here. I would never call Sander's chin granite (in fact, I think it average, at best), but I see what you mean in that he could conceivably take a cruiserweight's punches.
