Seeing as Mormeck is older than Wlad and David fought a more prime mormeck and KO'd him. Does Haye's status go up?
Obviously Wlad would have to come up with the worst performance of his career to lose to Mormeck, worse than Sanders, who was at leats a 6'4 genuine HW with good power. If Wlad has a total off - night, that doesn't elevate Haye. If, however unlikely, the fight is a great battle and Mormeck prevails after taking Wlad's best shots, then yes, it does something to elevate Haye.
Probably... Haye's status had only one way to go and that's up. Even suckerpuching Chisora with a bottle in his hand made his status go up, figure that!
No it wouldnt Haye got dominated by Wlad If Haye never fought Wlad and Mormeck KO'd Wlad then Haye's status and stock would rise But since Wlad won like every round and Haye couldnt come up with an excuse better than his pinky toe a Mormeck KO would not likely do anything to Haye's status except make him more likely to win the title cause he would try to get the Mormeck fight and pray Wlad didnt have a rematch clause
