    Can't see him giving either Klitschko much trouble.

    He's fast and strong but the question over his chin wasn't answered tonight.

    I think he will take Wlad but will lose to Vitali

    Well bar the two brothers who will give him a good fight, and potvkin and maybe that cuban fella who boxes out of ireland who else is there ?, he is very fast and has huge power, he still has not really been hit full on the chin as a heavy so thats for me the only question mark, but i will say champ in the next few years

    He's obviously a very dangerous fighter. That is pretty obvious, speed and power is a devastating combination. He did not even catch Barrett clean with those punches and they shook him right to the legs every time.

    He was a bit wild towards the end. Didn't really take many shots, only one really, so no conclusions to be drawn on his chin.

    Not a bad performance at all - Barrett was ragged but he meant business and really went for it. Haye did seem to have distancing trouble at times and threw a few shots short when Barrett didn't really dodge them - this might be more pronounced when he fights the Klits.

    On the plus side he's got speed, power, good reflexes and head movement. Definitley earned a decent ranking.

    Both Klitschkos KO Haye.

    Sounds fair, and this seems to summarize more or less what I've gathered reading other posts.

    I hope his next bout is televised over here.

    Punchers chance against Wlad, no chance against Vitali.

    he looked good but the jury is still out. He can beat most of the heavyweight division but the Klitches are a different kettle of fish
