    What do all those female Klitschko fans have to do with Haye saying he's an ATG cruiserweight? :huh

    I doubt anyone outside the UK will remember Haye 3 years from now.

    Top 10 for sure, maybe just maybe top 5 with a little bias. Nothing further up though.

    I'm fine with him saying he's top 2, he's definitely top 5 in that division,

    Haye has 3 notable names on his CW resume.

    Mormeck - Already battle warn,beaten by Bell just 2 fights earlier. Had Haye down and almost out.

    Fragomeni - A tough customer who went to WAR with Haye. IMO Haye's most solid CW win.

    Thompson - Old eroded former titlist who took Haye out.

    I do not rate Enzo as he was not even close to top level. A WRRN product who had his WBO title handed to him. The fighter makes the belt not the other way around!

    A serious lack of depth and title fights to call himself(like his 12 fans do) 2nd only behind Holy. Haye fans want to make him to be some H2H monster when in reality he was nearly KO'd by a SMW with featherfist's in Lolenga Mock. He was down bad against Mormeck, busted up and losing rounds to Fragomeni and down and taken out by ancient Thompson.

    David Haye without question threw this out there because his sorry primadona ass reads what the people say about him. After his recent debacle the consensus is Haye is not HOF worthy. The recent interview and rating of himself is a result of that.

    Don't see many beating him at CW.

    RJJ-Haye at CW would have been interesting, I know RJJ skipped CW but he was a great LHW and he took the HW title from GOAT Ruiz so I imagine he would be somewhere in between for CW.

    I think that Gomez is better than Nelson and so was Guillermo Jones... I would put Gomez second of all time
