At heavyweight: Harrison, Ruiz, Barrett, all old men who had several KO losses before Haye fought them, and Valuev he didn't beat unanimously. At cruiser his best wins: Frogomeni and Mormeck had KO losses, also Enzo. None of these guys is now a real contender for another world belt. The rest of Haye's record is no marks, C class at best, only Carl Thompson had pedigree, and also 5 KO losses, before Haye came unstuck. The guy bowed out a fight after Haye, that's how much he had left. Essentially, nothing too much for Wlad to worry about in Haye's record. Typical Brit fed on bums and whose opposition has been mediocre compared to those HW's Wlad has mostly KO'd since 2000. Haye has a punchers chance at best on July 2nd, but it won't be near enough.
Something most of us already know. Enzo and Valuev were paper champs who had there belts handed to them rather than winning them in a fight. No depth to his resume. Very weak body of work for such a hyped fighter.
His Cruiserweight resume was good. His heavyweight resume, for a #2 or #3 guy in the division, is laughable.
This. His cruiserweight resume is fine, but not ATG like some people think. Heavyweight resume? Thinner than paper.
maybe so but klit knows the guy,s fast and can hit who,s coming to try and seriously take his head off.it,s either haye,s got the ability or not!not his resume
His record is padded out by tomato cans and C class guys, club guys, when he lost to Thompson he back tracked and went the EBU route, but none of these guys were ring ranked, Frogomeni took 9 rounds, a C+ fighter, then he beat the CW champ Mormeck (fair play for that, but he did suffer a knock down). And Enzo, Enzo is not a marquee win now, and as said his heavyweight resume is not impressive or that relevant. I'm not saying Wlad should take him lightly, just that he shouldn't lose any sleep. Haye is quite inexperienced really.
He beat the best cruiserweights in the world(on paper) maccarinelli is only a tomato can because of what haye did to him(placed a map to his weak spot) before the haye fight he was universally recognized as one of the worlds top cruiserweight to say different is a lie. his heavyweight resume is no better than a lot of heavyweights such as adamek but we don't criticize them, he could always fight a few more fat heavies to put more number's on to his record but im sure that wouldn't stop the arm chair haters from finding fault.
Haye is quite inexperienced???.....even though boxed his whole life and dominated the division below heavyweight (yes cruiserweights heavier than light heavy) in a faster division yeah he's really out of his depth against bigger heavier guys.......... size and reach advantages have not been an issue before some comments border on the ridiculous experience against opponents with size and reach advantages have not been an issue before so even if he loses i am sure it wont be as one sided as most of you haters hope.
Adamek though has achieved as much as Haye in the HW division (paper champion status notwithstanding) only in about half the time and without backing out of the Klitschko fights. He also isn't a loudmouth.
His resume is good right now for the amount of fights he has had. It's gonna look **** hot by the time he retires in October though.
Funny you mention Adamek as Haye ducked him at cruiser when he was IBF champion. He'd rather fight C class heavies like Barrett and paper champs like Valuev. He also ducked guys like Steve Cunningham and O'Neal Bell, better names than Enzo and Fragomeni. Also on Adamek, Haye wouldn't have taken on a beast like Arreola before he got the Valuev shot, that's for sure.
haye never fought cunninham or adamek, he fought bunch of eurobums and his resume is **** at cruiser and at heavyweight
