    Haye is much better than Price (or was before the long inactivity period). Tony Thompson admitted in an interview that his sparring vs Haye went badly for him. He was literally helpless.

    My god stop your blind love for white fighters. Your statement about Pulev and Boytsov being able to beat Thompson speaks for itself. Boytsov has not even beat any top fighters. Pulev has fought a bunch of has beens. Thompson beats them both.

    Haye's one of the few heavies that has a style advantage against Thompson, and he's smart enough to stick with it. If he uses his movement, reflexes, and speed, it'd be incredibly difficult for Thompson to catch him. It wouldn't be an entertaining fight, but Haye would beat Thompson comfortably.

    Against the less mobile giants of the division, Thompson matches up much better. I'd bet on him knocking out Wilder if they fought. The way Helenius has looked, I'd favor Thompson over him, as well.

    Moving from "tomato cans" to "has beens". Lets hope they keep this up but at a much much faster pace.
