    Both same height; Haye has only a one and a half inch reach advantage. (pretty insignificant)

    Let's have it!

    Haye. Hits way to hard for any light heavyweight.

    I think this boils down to the fact that Dawson is defensively flawed, and has a suspect chin.

    Do I need to say more?

    Earlier today you said you're still a Dawson fan.. then you make this thread? :lol:

    What's the point of even analyzing this? No sane person would give Chad a chance against Haye.

    Too big a jump from light heavyweight to cruiserweight now since it moved from 190lbs to 200lbs. A 25lb weight difference may not always mean alot at heavyweight but it would damn sure make a difference at light heavyweight. Haye is simply too big and too powerful, it wouldn't last long.

    Don't be shy, huki. Go on; make the case for Dawson to win. You know you want to...After all, Dawson is elite, powerful, big and strong and Haye is a weak chinned chancer who was beaten by Thompson. They're the same height and Dawson is touted as the next great HW...;)

    Haye is too big for cruiserweights, he shouldn't be matched with a small LHW.

    In 3 years Haye would have to stop eating for 6 months to make cruiser. Even if he could, Dawson can bulk up all he wants but he can't put muscle on his chin. Haye hits a hell of a lot harder.

    What?:? Just wait for the Dawson nuthuggers to wake up!:yep

    I have Haye KO 1. Haye would not fear Dawson's power. He'd walk him down and land the Hayemaker. :good

    Well...assuming Haye would make the weight as easily as he did against Macca. Of course, he's no longer fighting at CW. Hypothetical question.

    haye has the combo of speed, timing and immense power to exploit dawson's god awful defence and suspect chin.

    seriously, no slight on chad but haye wrecks him.

    Haye by KO. Thought the Dawson v Johnson fight showed Dawsons limitations .....
