    Haye is not going to have a size advantage, like he had at CW, but he is not undersized at HW.

    The list Azriel put up does show it very well, and it could go on for long.

    In fact, being too big is not such a big advantage as it makes you slower and an easier target to hit.

    Yeah, you are right. A fighter can't look stupid, can he?

    Yes, he is. He has better boxing skills than Vitaly. His chin, however, is another matter.

    If Haye gains 30lbs. of muscle or just 30lbs. of fat and muscle he
    will inevitably lose some speed. Anyway if he wipes out a good
    heavyweight or even an old warhorse like Rahman then you can
    start these "he kills Wlad in 3 rounds" without looking like complete
    ******ed middleschool muppets. Haye needs a lot of seasoning at
    heavyweight and should stop the drinking. He's been completely
    pissed in his last two off the cuff interviews. He could barely speak.

    If Vitali didnt have his injury problems he would have achieved far more than Wlad in my opinion

    what are you on about??? Haye is a coffee freak, he drink 15 cups a day, thats why he is so over the top sometimes.

    Fair enough, I don't know much about him. He just seemed to be
    acting weird in the You-Tube videos I saw him in.

    I thought I'd hallucinated with that!

    Given that this thread started talking about coffee, I stopped reading

    I hope Haye doesn't try to gain to much, I think that a lighter guy with more endurance can out hustle many of the current heavyweights and give far more exciting fights.

    He doesn't have the chin to take a heavyweight punch, either. :-(

    Haye will be fine at heavyweight until someone give him some chin music. He is a thin framed guy.

    They hype around Haye is un-real. What the heck, boxing needs it. The Brits hyped Harrison not so long ago.
