    I can't understand how people believe that Haye would beat Bruno. Bruno had a solid chin that was his downfall more than anything in some ways he stood and took heavy bombs from ATG punchers when he should have taken a knee.

    Bruno may have fallen short in his era but Bruno was a higher class of fighter than Haye. Haye doesnt punch hard enough is skilled enough. If Haye runs he loses a lopsided decision if Haye fights he gets bullied about and pummelled into submission.

    My favourite of those matchups is Neary v Hatton this is a fight that could have happened at the turn of the century and when Neary was in his prime it would have been a FOTY contender. Neary has a good chance of beating a green Hatton.

    All I know is that Lewis was probably the best out of a golden generation of heavyweight boxers and well we all know what happened when Lewis fought Vitali.

    Maybe Lewis was over the hill a bit , but maybe that's an excuse we hear too constantly when an up and coming fighter beats a more experienced fighter.

    My point been is that it is so easy to knock fighters of today when comparing them with fighters of yesterday.
