    He better, he needs to keep his hands up and become more defensively oriented.

    I think he ought to stay how he is - he is essentially a counter-puncher. He has been down a few times, but the key is whether he stays down!

    As opposed to Wlad who has an Iron chin and has never been down?

    Wlad is pure grade a 100% china, Haye will leave him lying out cold.

    Samuel Peter failed to bully or come close to stopping James Toney, a former middleweight, despite having a 25lbs weight advantage in their 1st fight, so I don't think he is the strongest man in boxing.

    Haye would stop Peter, but he won't get the chance coz Vitali K will first.

    am i talking about wlad? no, i am addressing the "matrix arguement", that haye's speed and reflexes will not allow any HW to connect.

    either admit im right or disagree and give some evidence to back it up. don't respond with lame comebacks :deal

    :lol: James Toney is a freak of nature. the dude has an iron chin and utilizes upperbody and head movement to lessen the impact of blows. And Peter badly stunned Toney on a few occassion in both fights.

    and who has ever come close to stopping James Toney?

    Surely the reason people watch Haye is the fact he could get Knocked out just as easily as he can KTFO of his opponent? The guy has good skill, an equaliser and a suspect chin - great entertainment.

    I actually think the move up in weight could improve his punch resistance - he said he was jelly legged against Moremeck if I remember correctly?
