    That was my initial thought, he's apparently ''put on a stone in muscle'' yet was struggling to make 200 ??

    Dont think so some how.

    Yeah but Jess was a tin can in comparison to Dempsey. Most of Tysons opponents were physically bigger and heavier than him. He decimated at least 90% of his opposition.
     
  3. I thought "struggling to make 200" was just a ploy to catch Enzo...

    215 is an excellent weight - fast, powerful, let's hope he keeps that left up!

    Some ploy. He came in 3lbs inside. Thats not a guy struggling to make weight.
     
  5. Um... exactly? That was the ploy? I'm struggling to make 200... oh whoops, no I'm not!!

    Because Frank Warren would not risk putting Enzo in with Haye unless he believed that Haye was struggling at the weight.

    Haye was tight at 200, I fully believe that. It went on for ages. He fought Bonin to save himself making the weight, he fought Enzo quick sharp after Mormeck so he could stay light.

    I'm just slightly surprised at 215... I didn't want hm to go too high, but 215 is maybe 5 lbs short of what I'd expected.

    My nagging doubt has always been whether he's big enough for the heavies. We'll see.

    Does anyone know what time he's actually going to be in the ring? Obviously want to watch it but am off to the Warehouse Project tonight so could do with being there by about 11.30 latest.

    Was going to be midnight but they brought it forward to 11.15.

    Not good for you...

    But for me, it's straight after Match of the Day, what a night !!!

    :think O K. Then what was his excuse for moving up to heavy then? Why not just sat he wanted another challenge up at heavy with the big boys? As the consensus opinion is/was Haye is struggling to make 200lbs.

    A guy earlier in this thread said it right: Haye is a natural small HW.

    Although if some of the HW's laid of the cheeseburgers, they'd be around this weight.
