    I voted 6, I think he is good for boxing, but I liked him a lot more when he was chasing the Klitschkos rather than avoiding them.

    As little respect as possible for a former world champion. Who has he beat? If heavy is weak right now cruiser is wasteland. No I do not consider him a heavyweight champion at this time. Everyone know who he needs to fight to become a champion.

    Yep, Haye can proudly rank alongside Leon Spinks, Buster Douglas, Ernie Terrell, Bruce Seldon, Oleg Maskaev, Hasim Rahman and John Ruiz. Let's not forget Tony Tucker, Michael Dokes and Bonecrusher Smith.

    i respect him and as a fighter i am a big fan. i dont sweat the klitschko situation - we all want that fight to happen but we dont really know what is going on behind the scenes, no matter how much we like to prentend we do.

    You're not serious are you?? :patsch Haye has a fractional title belt - he is a PAPER beltholder at best, and not one who exactly beat the best in the division to get there either.

    i voted 1....you cant talk as much **** and call out 2 guys as much as he has only to back down from the challenge to the point they are calling you out and you're silent.

    I voted a 6.
    But it's dropping everyday.

    It used to be at about a 9 or 10... but not only is he not trying to unify as he said he would, he's barely fighting.

    Full respect for Haye. For anyone who dosent tell me how many other fighters around at this time have won so much in so few fights
    WBC WBA WBO Ring CW champ and WBA HW champ in 24 fights
    He won his first CW titles away had a CW unification and won his HW title away all in 24 fights.
    Who else today is a 2 weight champ thats had a unification fight and won their titles away all in 24 fights

    He got my respect by calling out Wlad... But lost all, when he turned out to be full of hot air! I cant and i wont give him more than 1
