Hayemaker KO over Joe I think. Frazier's weak chin combined with lack of size would be his major undoing here. Hayemaker is able to get inside of Frazier, outworks him, roughs him up, hurts him, and stops him. Frazier didn't cope well with elite level powerful super HW's like Hayemaker. Even against the B level Joe Bugner Frazier struggled to cope with his extra size and strength. Have a look below from the 3 minute mark.

This content is protected Frazier in his pomp. The look of a bygone era? I think this would be a repeat of Foreman vs Frazier. Here I have attached a clip of that below.

Probably like Frazier-Ellis I of '70... but Smoke might get dropped before Haye gets stopped because Haye packs a better punch than Bonavena.
Haye pulls out a few weeks beforehand with a career threatening back injury and fights Floyd Patterson a few months later instead.
If Bugner (a poor mans Tyson Fury) can give Frazier fits then clearly a lightning quick, powerful hulk like Hayemaker has a superb chance of stopping Frazier.
Haye is for some reason being pitted against an all time great and winning Crazy ! Frazier would have smashed him to pieces, Granted haye is extremely fast but if Ali had problems hitting him what hope would haye have ! Too much love for haye IMHO
