    This guy actually thinks he can compete with the klitschkos, what a joke. Ive watched a number of his fights, hes more of a showman than actual skill and that was at CRUISER, no way he becomes champ at heavy

    Though I was barely born then and I dont know what was said regarding his move to heavy...He hadnt been badly stopped before he moved up and he had beaten much better fighters then Haye has.

    He hits like a truck and come's to fight.

    The man has only had 23 fights' and look at his record.

    Saying he has no chance is nonsense.

    Even if he does get beat by the Klits there's a very, very good chance that he become's the future champion at heavyweight.

    I hated Haye at first but I am warming to him as a heavyweight. He brings a breath of fresh air to a division void of a superstar that gets people talking. Yes, both Klitschko's are the best out there right now but Haye is something different and I think he will do better than a lot of people expect. On that note, if a lot of people are predicting a walk over, and if a lot of people are saying that Haye is nothing more than a big mouth Cruiser - then Klitschko shouldn't get a lot of credit for this win right? And if Haye does well, you'll give him the credit he deserves?? :deal

    He'll bring more of a fight than the Peter's and Rahman's of this world.

    you're still talking up a good cruiser against a very heavy hitter at heavyweight.

    dont ever back up a fighter on his record because its who he fought (and beat) that matters most.

    Even if he does get knocked out, at least he's had the balls to fight the best fighters out there. You ****ers moan when fighters are ducking other fighters but criticize them when they want fight the best. He brings excitement and has a good attitude.

    Isn't every heavyweight though? That is what makes this division exciting.

    Exactly. It's almost a certainty that a heavyweight will get stopped at some point. A cruiserweight with a less than solid chin even more so. Not exactly rocket science.
