How would Haye do against the following of WK's opponents: Ibragimov Chambers Byrd Thompson Chagaev Peter.
Chagaev and Byrd, I see as 50/50. I think Haye would beat the other 3. (Why no mention of Sam Peter?)
Haye beats Chagaev by brutal first round KO. Chagaev was always a hype job on this forum. Ibragimov may give Haye trouble. Ibragimov was a good fighter. He tired his best to land on Wlads egg chin but Wlad was to scared to take risks. That is why the American fans booed him out of the country.
Who knows? He looks superb, but the two best heavies he ever met absolutely thrashed him (Wlad) and took him life-and-death (Valuev). He's in style fights with these guys, fights that are defined by strategy.
:huh Haye was thrashed by Wald and Valuev? when did this happen? Wlad beat him by keeping him at range by leaving his left hand stretched out in a boring fight. the last thing that Wlad did was "thrash" him. how could Valuev thrash him when Haye won the fight, silly? that doesn't even make sense. Haye won that fight with room to spare. it wasn't exciting or anything like that, but he clearly won.
Ibragimov: Beats Haye rather easily Chambers: Outboxes Haye Byrd: 50/50 Thompson: This would be a good competitive fight 50/50 Chagaev: Haye has a good chance of winning this Peter: Would likely club Haye like a seal
It would take Haye a dozen years or more to fight those guys. He fights no more than once every two years.
Haye would not fight any of those fighters unless they were drugged, injured, or within a wheelchair!
