If Haye finishes Barrett by decision...will it have any impact ?

haye can move on to a bigger heavyweight fight

thats enough impact for me

 

i'm no haye fan, but IMO barrett's a very legit HW for his first fight at the weight in some time (though don't know if he really needed to wait a year to "bulk up" 15 lbs). if he beats barret by UD, it's a good start unless barrett looks **** and haye lackluster.

 

Might be bit dissapointing, if he puts on a clinic then, when all said and done, he has beaten a decent contender on his first proper HW fight. which can't be knocked.

Even if he gets a KO, if he has to go life and death to get it then its not so good.

He has to win anyway he can, but winning impressively and demonstrating he is a class above Barrett is the main thing.

 

if haye wins be even a shutout UD i will be dissapointed he needs to KO him to prove that he is here to stay

 

I'm not expecting an early KO. I think David will come out cautious the first few rounds and box Monte. Once David settles in, I think he'll let the knockout come to him in a sense and take Barrett out in the 6th or 7th. If he decisions him, just as well. It would be good for David to go 12 rounds at the new weight. He'll weigh probably 220-225 on fight night, so 12 rounds will be good to see how he carries the weight around the ring. A win is a win, he's just getting his feet wet tonite at Heavyweight anyway.

 

Hmm Just cant picture a decision win, I dont think its Haye game plan nore Barretts. Barretts is gona come swinging, he'll know all about Haye aparent weakness and he'll be gunning for his chin, this will leave him open to counters and Haye is a massive puncher who'll def carry his power up imo.

I see a stoppage victory in Hayes favour, but itd definately be a stoppage even if he were to lose.

Haye decision win wouldnt be a disaster but we get enough decision wins from the Russians, we want Haye because we want KOs, simple as that!

 

Theres no way this will go 12, someone is getting popped in this fight

 

Haye in round two or three

 

To back up the talk and remain on track, I believe he has to knock Barrett out within 5 rounds. He also has to do it impressively, i.e not take a lot of flush punches, outbox him for the 4/5 rounds leading up to the KO.

 

It's entirely dependent on how Haye does. If he drops more than 3 rounds to Barrett it could be considered a set back. If he wins a big decision then all is well.

 

edit

 

Yes. When Haye KOs Barrett, he will be thrust into the top ten.

 

no big deal if he doesnt ko him.....a win is a win.....valuev doesnt knock anyone out......a win is a win.......

 

He has not plans to stay, he has three or four fights left.
