Is David Haye the most skilled heavy at the division?

Wlad has great footwork. One of the best jabs in boxing history, very good left hook, great right hand.

Wlad is accurate and athletic.

Haye throws wild punches and hopes they connects. Wlad fight with a fight plan. He can choose, how he wants to fight. He dictats the fight and if he wants he knocks the opponents out.

 

Poor Reasoning. Haye isn't tall enough or big enough to excel in either sport. He's 6'2 on a push (I know they say he's 6'3 but he isn't) and he's a natural 200 pounds. What postion could he play in either sport? Point guard? Do you know how many 6'2 point guards get drafted? Maybe 1 in 100,000. Quarterback...same difference.

 

Is power a skill? Is speed a skill? I don't think they are. They are assets but you either have them or you don't so I wouldn't class them as skills. I would put both Klitschko's over Haye in the skills department.

 

Wlad, Vitali, and Eddie Chambers.

 

I can't believe anyone is even making a thread like this after watching his last fight. He made John Ruiz look like Arturo Gatti!!

 

No I don't think he is. In fact I think Haye is average in terms of boxing skill. Haye is all physical ability, not really skill, and this is coming from a fan, albeit a realistic one.

That's funny.

Answer = no.

 

^This. Being good at basketball or football does not mean you have the requisite ability to be a good fighter and vice versa.
