    That would depend on his undrained weight. Also, wingspan is not necessary representative of breadth; someone can have long arms but not broad shoulders.

    Whatever the size of the fighter, if he can compete against bigger opponents, what's the big deal?

    And what's this NATURAL heavyweight thing? There is no such thing in my opinion.

    It's not because there are monsters in the division, that smaller HW are not natural HW. You said Haye can't compete at HW because he's not a natural HW. What I am saying is, he's 6'3, he can easily compete with someone 3 inches bigger then him (Klit).

    Anyways, I can't argue with you. It's your opinion, even if it's a stupid one.:good

    It depends on his build numbnuts.

    If he's built like Tyson, he's be a HW, if he's built like Hearns he'd be a welter.

    Great, I've proved what a nob you are. So you are saying a 6'1 fighter with a 78 reach should be ok

    Thank you. You've just answered my question. Haye should stop partying like Conteh and stick to his natural weight instead of chasing the money

    Ok, here are some fighters from this era;

    Samuel Peter = 6'0 1/2 reach 77''
    Ruslan Chagaev = 6'1 reach 74'' (Didn't he beat Valuev???)
    Alexander Povetkin = 6'2
    John Ruiz = 6'2 reach 78''
    Sultan Ibragimov = 6'2 reach 76''
    Oleg Maskaev = 6'3 reach 79''
    Lamon Brewster = 6'2 reach 77''
    David Haye = 6'3 reach 78''

    Want me to continue?

    And I took some of the best HW in the lot.

    Now STFU!! :rasta

    Haye is probs the best defensive fighter of all Heavyweights.
