Haye Turns Down David Tua Fight!

Where's Zakman when you need him? Chins are being discussed here, and he's nowhere to be found!

 

ah man, he should take TUA! Imagine if he wins! There's plenty of time to train for July...

I think I was shocked the most when Fraudley fell......:nut

Good for you, your ability to figure out who has a better chin is unsurpased.

 

Rahman or McCall..... maybe he's trying to establish himself as the man who beat the men who knocked out Lennox Lewis. Both are well past their best though, particularly McCall.


I suspect McCall-Haye will look a lot like Holmes-Cobb at this point. McCall is extremely slow now, still durable as hell (though that can change over night) and will be all but knocked out. Rahman would put up a better fight, but probably get stopped before 6 at this point. Interesting fight, though.

 

Tua is very risky, McCall is too old for a young lion like Haye and probably won't get any credit for beating an old heavy. Rahman is an ideal winnable opponent for Haye, IMO

 

I'd like to see him fight Tua, because Haye has too much speed for Tua and will KO him. Then he should fight Rahman who he will also KO which will setup the Kiltchko fight.

 

Exactly, instead of each one being served up some marshmallow......................

 

good point

 

Very understandable that Haye turns down Tua fight. Tua is iron chinned and would be a serious threat to Haye even now with his immense power.
Haye needs to further test the waters at Heavyweight and at the same time pick a decent name. Rahman fits the bill perfectly, he is ranked in the Top 15 by all 4 major organisations but is on the slide having been KOd by Maskaev for the second time, then struggled with Taurus Sykes who was destroyed by Sam Peter in 2 rds. Then almost getting schooled by Zuri Lawrence. Rahman is ripe for the picking which is why Tye Fields people wanted to make the fight with him. If Haye meets Rahman I fully expect Haye to KO Hasim in devastating fashion inside 6 rounds. This is not a reflection on the greatness of Haye however, just the end of the road for Rahman.:yep

 

What nonsense. McCall and Rahman are former champs and Tua is a former top contender. All 3 have enough power to be dangerous to any heavyweight out there today, even though they are all obviously past their best.

Take a look at that guy in your avatar and think of Manfredo, Podwill, McIntyre and all the other bums he's faced in the past, then come back and insult Haye :good

 

Haye should take this or STFU. Didn't Haye just say all the Hw's were garbage? ****ing fight then!!

Mccall could still knock out Haye should he land clean. I really doubt the durability of Haye. Mormeck is not a puncher at CW, he just throws way too many punches until he gets tired. Mormeck had Haye down, on jello legs and on the verge of being Ko'd.

 

Whomever he fights that has an ounce of anything left will knock his ass out.

 

I don't see anything special about Haye other then punching power for CW. It is not like he is that great of skilled fighter like Mayweather, RJJ or something. He just punches hard for CW and has a shaky chin. Haye really needs to not get hit at HW, and he hasn't displayed the defense he is going to need.

 

Good post. I'd consider the current version of Rahman to be a nice welcome to the HW's fight, Rahman still has a jab if he trains serious. He has power & technique too, when he uses it. I think Hasim would be

to fight Haye, I really do. He knows if he drops a decision or gets KO'd by "the new guy" he'll be done.

 

Rahmann or McCall will knock this guy into tomorrow. Just wait, the David Haye express ends sooner rather than later.
