    David Haye shatters Holyfield's glass chin.

    What are you laughing about. Haye beat Valuev (biggest HW champ ever), Ruiz, Mormeck (unifying an entire division), Barrett, Harrison (Olympic Gold medallist) and Chisora (tough A level contender).

    Also his career isn't over yet. Haye can add a couple big names to his list and he most certainly will break into the top 15-20 ATG lists.

    Why is everyone just hating on Haye instead of looking at the facts.

    I could do the **** with every other ATG in your list.

    Let's see who did Joe Frazier fight?

    * Ali? Past his best and a lucky win. Also Frazier lost 2 out of 3 fights.
    * Foreman? Got owned twice against Big George.
    * Ellis? ****
    * Quarry? Bum
    * Bugner? Journeyman

    And you **** on David Haye? :deal

    OK smart guys name 10 better CW's than the Hayemaker. What's that, you can't?

    Haye is number 2 amongst the CW ATG's.

    Haye is nowhere near the level of boxer that Holyfield was in his prime .

    Holyfield by brutal, savage, and embarrassing KO.

    Very hard to say. I personally believe Haye is faster in both hand and foot speed than Holyfield but that Holyfield had better timing and endurance. I would be incorrect in saying that Holy's chin was better than Haye's chin because, if I remember correctly, Burt Cooper had him in all kinds of trouble and Bowe KOed him. I have a tiny inclination to say Haye wins due to Holyfield's brief history of health ( cardiac ) problems. But I will have to ammend this by adding that Haye hasn't gone through enough of his career to really give a thorough enough estimation.

    Haye too fast and hits hard enough to get holy's attention. Since when did Holy fight someone as slick as david haye?

    Haye hammers it out to a points decision, possibly dropping holyfield. I mean the guy lost to ****ing Moorer and was lucky to get a draw V lewis first time round

    ringwar with Qawi, 3 with Bowe, 2 with Lewis

    Haye has never been in a ringwar in his career, he doesn't have the warrior heart and courage Holy brought to the ring every time

    I'm a die hard Haye fan...
    But Holyfield is a different breed, Holy eats Haye alive.

    Holyfield by KO.

    Holyfield would make an even bigger clown out of Haye than he already is and stop him.
