    The difference is that haye's defence is very negative whereas byrd's defence meant he could make you miss in the pocket.

    Helenius should now go after Haye.

    This would be a good match up

    Helenius is slow, plodding, and easy to hit... Chances are Haye would outbox him

    However, Helenius has great power, is unpredictable, and does not telegraph his punches.... A "nightmare" for a boxerpuncher with shaky chin like Haye

    Haye UD being knocked down multiple times

    Or Helenius by impressive KO

    I see Povetkin walking haye down and stopping him on accumulation.

    What, another thread about that repulsive rubber kneed ******!? I thought we're through with her. 1. She's suffering from a terrible life-threatening baby toe injury, and 2. She promised to retire.

    There's no doubt that slipping in the pocket is much more technical than slipping on the backfoot.

    Plus it is more impressive from a scoring point because you can win exchanges much easier.

    The way byrd and spinks used defence is a thing of beauty in my eyes.

    For the match up, i'd have to favour haye to do a number on pov. Chambers gave pov hell and haye is better h2h than eddie imo.

    But he has power from hell, whereas Byrd did not.

    The fact that this thread has gone 5 pages tells me that not ONE of you have read the quote. Haye said NOTHING that would suggest he wants a fight with Povetkin. Nothing

    i agree with you watch slipping inside is amazing and byrd done it great..that is why i hate people comparing hayes supposid defence to a man like byrds

    Only fighter to stagger Valuev

    Dropped Ruiz like a water buffalo by merely tapping him on the snoot

    Dropped Barrett with ease (for whatever that's worth-I think the Tua fights showed Barrett can take a shot pretty well)

    Haye also made Wlad miss repeatedly, while in the pocket. I was amazed has how good his upperbody movement was when Wlad was trying like hell to catch him clean.

    he wasnt the only person to stagger valuev..
    ruiz is 3 years away from his buspass he couldnt even finish him and repeatidly got hit while he fought agressive against him which kinda proves my point about his defence being shite..barrett fell into the ring vs haye and tua is now a fat ass and he still was able to catch him all them fighters are old motherfukers that means nothing..he hit wlad and nothing happend..nothing...
