Does Enzo's loss expose Haye as being overhyped?

    Haye's best win = Mormeck not Enzo

    Enzo's defeat today by a "C" level opponent is food for thought. After all, the Enzo win is one of Haye's biggest victories. Beating Enzo is the cornerstone of Haye's reputation.

    People are saying that Haye is a credible opponent for monster-man Vladimir Klitscho because Haye stopped Enzo. But what's a win over Enzo worth if even the lowly Ola Afolabi can do it too?

    Think about it: the conclusion is inescapable.

    You guys want to throw Haye in with a brutal killer like Vladimir Klitschko? Why don't you just pass a law requiring zoo's to let their tigers and lions roam around without restraint. That's the kind of carnal destruction you are advocating when you feed Haye to Vlad.

    Lets not forget the Spinks Jinx ,who was considered one of the best light heavyweights in history.

    People seem to forget Haye also knocked Monte Barret all over the place in their fight. Wladmir Klitscho himself couldn't do that in such fashion.

    Haye said Enzo Mac was **** before their fight and I don't think he expects people to use it as a career defining fight when he retires. Mormeck meant more to him.

    Haye's defining fight at CW was against Mormeck no doubt, NOT against Maccarinelli. I think the majority would agree with that. Maccarinelli was just the 'icing on the cake' and taken to shut up Enzo and Warren who were clearly going to carry on calling out Haye after he moved out of the division and needed a big payday fight.

    On another note, Enzo has a glass jaw if I ever saw one.

    You really are an idiot!

    Haye was going to Heavyweight until Warren offered him a career high pay at the O2 to flatten Maccarinelli.

    And he did in 2 rounds!!?

    Hayes best cruiserweight career win has always been Mormeck!

    Seriously are you just looking to **** people off for attention?

    DICK.

    WALDO, a brutal killer?? :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

    You make it sound like Haye is going to be fighting a prime Tyson or Foreman, rather than a safety first, jab n' grab robot.

    Nonsense. Klitschko gave Barrett a brutal beating in 2000, flooring him five times and throwing him around the ring like a ragdoll. Poor Monte looked like a grenade had blown up in his face when the fight was over.

    In 2000, Barrett was in his prime, and he was ranked in the top 15 worldwide.

    By comparison, Haye beat an old, tired Barrett.

    Interesting observation. Now talk us all through WALDOS last defence, why don't you?

    Stop making absurd remarks. Klitschko's last defense was against a top 10 rated fighter. It was an easy, one-sided knockout victory against a former champion. Beating Rahman was just a way for Klitschko to stay busy. The victory is not the cornerstone of Kltischko's reputation.

    By contrast, beating the ancient, unranked Barrett is supposed to be Haye's greatest achievement at heavyweight.

    Have you no shame? You are advocating that Haye be turned into a human sacrifice if you believe he should fight Klitschko.

    Maccarenelli is and has always been a Glass Jawed British level/WBO level fighter.
