    well haye unified too, but he also got wiped out and ran in fear from a 40something, which is the stuff of cowardzaghiness.

    I'd go with 3g to emulate anything haye did by the end of 3gs career.

    Haye never fought Adamek whom I consider the best cruiser of his generation so GGG easily.

    Haye-Adamek would have been a great fight, but it was never going to happen.

    Haye said before the Mormeck fight that he would move up to HW after the fight due to him finding it hard to make the weight. The only reason he took the Macarinelli fight is because he was offered good money and the fight was signed quite quickly after the Mormeck fight so it meant that Haye wouldn't bloon up in weight to much. By the time of this fight Adamek was coming of a loss to Dawson at LHW and had only two low key fights at CW so no one was calling for the fight.

    Middleweight is not a weak divison. GGG just make it looks bad, that's how good he is. If GGG wouldn't be around, you guys would praise the likes of Lemieux and Eubank Jr, Canelo etc. It's actually a really good division.

    GGG is just not human, he's from another planet. An immaculate boxer, the best ever.

    GGG gets the edge here. No losses at the weight, more title wins as Haye fought a whopping 2 world title fights at cruiserweight, and has hardly "dominant" in the first one. It's a stretch to call Haye "dominant" when he won a total of 2 title fights in an era with 4 titles to choose from. And it's not like he fought a murderer's row in his pre-title opposition.

    Neither fought stellar opposition, to say the least, although GGG is still active so at least he has time to improve on it.

    If anything, GGG's run is more comparable to Mosley at 135, with a great record with a high KO% against modest opposition.

    These people are so lost, because GGG is so dominant they think mw is weak. Mwe is one of the most talented on boxing. They want ggg to move up to 68 which is totally garbage compared to 60. 47, 60 and hw are stacked.

    Lhw is starting to get some talent but mostly a 1 man show with kovalev

    Haye didnt become undisputed as he likes to repeat as he left the division rather than face the IBF champ Cunningham!

    He also got battred by retired 40 year old Carl Thompson and never tried to rematch him.

    He only had two world title fights at cruiser against Mormeck and Macaranelli. Its hardly a great run.
