    I'm willing to accept that the TKO loss was a fluke incident, perhaps even by way of weight draining or other factors, which is why I wish he could make CW effectively, because against the better opposition he HAS shown better punch resistance than the initial doubts would come from the TKO loss to that journeyman.

    But HW is a different story. However, I'd say he'd be okay if he has something like a Calvin Brock chin at HW(which is glass in my opinion, but not "china"), it can hold up with a proper defence, giving enough time for Haye to brutalise the adversity before getting sparked out.

    Obviously he's not going to have the kind of jaw that we'd like, I hope he does very well, Haye is a fighter that is good for boxing from a variety of factors.

    The best part about Haye/Mormeck is that we will get a good price on Haye for betting, Mormeck will be the favourite without a doubt.:D

    Chagaev has a very fast, well timed straight left that could put Haye in a world of trouble though.:think

    I think he will win the Cruiser title aswel and I also feel he has as good a chance as any to wina version of the heavyweight title - the division really is that bad. If he has the size, power or chin to unify and dominate is yet to be seen...

    Chagaev is no Ali, but is one tough cookie, has good stamina and packs a hell of a punch. I can see him weathering the early storm and wear Haye down for a late round KO.

    Klitschko will decimate him I think, his defence is not that good to withstand Wlad's offensive arsenal.

    Ibragimov/Haye would be interesting.

    I am not convinced by Peter, I think he is too crude to beat Haye.

    Haye has an impressive reach, as did Ali. Hayes speed and reach will allow him to outbox Chagaev and Valuev.

    For every punch a fighter has, Haye has a punch just as devastating. Dare I say it, that includes the likes of Peter and Wlad.

    ??? Carl Thompson a journeyman? Your classification of a journeyman is awful.

    Haye pre Thompson was a different animal. EVERYONE who supported said he was talented but he would shoot his load in abou 2 or 3 rounds and give EVERYONE a chance to ko him after that. Plus he was wide open and thus gave everyone a punchers chance. Mock and Thompson exposed this in him. He worked ALOT on pacing himself, maintaining a good workrate and his defence has come on light years. Thus he eradicated these two things.

    Haye blitzed Thompson, about three rounds later he was DONE!

    Haye at CW isn't happy with his reflexes. He said so after the Fragomeni fight. At HW he says he is stronger, fitter and sharper. From the way he looks, I agree. He fought a bigger version of Fragomeni and blitzed him.

    Calvin Brock does not have a glass chin. He has taken good shots from guys like McCline, Wlad, Etienne etc It is breakable but not glass. Brock has some tools too. He was making Wlad look real bad.

    Haye is GREAT for boxing. He has it all. A shame he doesn't get more coverage. People need to remember he has only TWENTY fights!

    I want to attend the Haye fight and maybe put a bet on him depending on the odds. HAye-Mormeck has me HYPED!

    Haye beat Valuev and Chisora, a washed-up Ruiz, and Audley Harrison.



    I's probably be more impressed if he'd beat Arreola and Chambers. :lol:
