How do people see this one going down in the light of the Joshua Ruiz fight? Personally think prime Hayes speed and power would have been too much for AJ in the light of the Ruiz defeat. Think a Ruiz vs Haye in his prime would have been a great fight
I honestly always thought Haye would KO Joshua when he was at his best. I don’t think Joshua is as bad as many on here think he is now, actually I think Joshua is a very good fighter, and his resume proves it. I just think Haye is a bit better than him, and his style, speed and power would overcome Joshua in a close fight.
Haye would be very reluctant to engage with Joshua so would lose just as Parker did. But AJ would likely catch haye when he's off balance and remove him from the contest with a series of savage blows to the body and head.
Ruiz has a better defense than Haye had, his hand speed is better too, AJ would have caught Haye far more than he caught Andy.
