    Anyone think Haye should take on McCline as his 1st Heavweight fight?

    Haye SD:good

    Might not be bad, especially if Jameel shows up to win. :think

    That's a tall order for the tall man. :yep

    If he shows up on fire for 5 in this fight I'd be happy.

    Actually the big questions is what happens to both guys once you get past round five or six, neither has great stamina.

    This match is a pick em, McCline has knockout power early fights, just ask Grant, Briggs, Bryd, and Peter, but it's later in fights does he start to lose it. His chin aint bad either, his stamina is however.

    That's a good welcome to the HW's fight that could actually prepare Haye for a larger HW like Wlad. The thing is McCline might actually KO him so I dodn't expect to see that fight happen, mark my words, Haye wants a softer touch than Jameel.

    Yeah, the Rahman vs Toney II winner.

    Reasonable.

    That actually has me hoping Rahman wins, as I'd rather see his shot, leather-eating ass cop the beating from Haye than Toney's shot, leather-eating ass.

    But Rahman has a puncher's chance of KO'ing him and Toney does not.

    All the better I guess. :conf

    If Haye's going to make mistakes dumb enough to get starched by a Rahman, I'd rather he make them sooner than later against someone like a Klit.

    I wouldnt say that, Mormeck has less power than Toney and he floored Haye, Thompson I know doesnt pack the punch Toney has either, and made Haye do a nose dive to the canvas from a partially blocked punch. Haye's chin is very weak, the Heavyweights will expose it for what it is.

    You're forgetting career 168-175 pounder Mock. He had Haye dancing all over the place.

    IntentionalButt, you're right. If he gets starched by this very faded Rahman then that will tell us all we need to know about Haye as a heavy.

    Exactly, Haye might have heavyweight power, but can he take it? I say hell no, guys like Peter and Wlad will have him on his knees more times than OklahomaHoss on a blind date.:yep

    i'm not yet convinced that haye can crack the heavies.

    superb hands and power but he wasn't impregnable beofre the jump and i wouldn't be surprised to see a puncher spark him before we expect it.

    haye calling out wlad face to face (which he did) after beating enzo - a cruiser with a poor resume, and that's a real surprise for a warren fighter....

    stinks of over-confidence for me, even though i like haye's arrogance and attitude. i'm the same sort but i don't think haye realises his flaws yet truly.
