I love casual British fans, I can't help read comments like that imagining them being delivered by some loser chav with utmost conviction in what they are saying... I know it's probably completely off the mark, but it's hard not to see it that way Banter is one thing, but there becomes a point where you're just acting like a moron and dragging down fellow British fans by association. Keep it up, you guys have a (poor) reputation to uphold!
I'm a kiwi and I would put my money on Haye. In the current HW scene I think he underrated compared to the credit people give the likes of Parker, AJ and Fury. Fury, Haye and Klit all give AJ and Parker problems. Maybe not enough problems to take one of the younger guys out of the fight, but definitely enough to derail the young cubs career in the process. Haye still has heavy and fast hands. Any hater could see that... Parkers defense is poor, as is AJ's. I'm with one of the above posters. Haye could KO Parker within 4. If it goes outside of 4, I see Parker controlling from the outside.
Yeah, Haye is one of the scariest prospects for Parker imho - but also could be one of the most exciting heavyweight match ups possible in ages. It could easily end up edge of seat stuff!
I don't have too much faith in Haye right now..............he has been too inactive, but I read that Haye will fight the winner of Ruiz/Parker...................
Yeah because that's a fair comparison when he's fought less than half as many times... Compare the guys AJ is beating after 17 fights to the guys Wlad, Fury and Wilder were fighting after 17 fights and you might just be surprised. Even Parker hadn't beat no one until his 19th fight against Takam.
He (David Haye) has to be a " great champion". Great champions only have so many haters on this forum. Should I list ? Floyd, Pac, Rigo, Klitschko brothers, Kovalev, GGG, Haye, Joshua....
Parker fought a older Botha before his 19th fight. Botha was good enough to be pitted against Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Holyfield etc.. there was also Sherman Williams. Kali Meehan who fought for a world title but just lost. Joshua cant boast that about his opponents. Parkers fought FAR more experienced fighters who had fought big names. Joshuas opponents have been all rookies. He got wobbled by a no-name Dillian Whyte (not a top 5 HW in any division) and knocked OUT by Price. Theres no knockout of Parker in sparring. Parkers got Ruiz whom I think is better than Charles Martin! Younger Parker already has more fights than older Joshua whos been a pro for longer and still hasnt fought a big name! Joshua also is the most preffered opponent by many elite HWs as hes been called out time and time again.
Exactly,truth is after his last few fight against guys who never threw one punch I don't think even Haye himself knows what he can do so how should we know. That said against two cans he looked amazing?
