    Haye is a bad stylistic matchup for Wilder. Anyone with good power who is mobile with good head movement would knock Wilder out.

    Haye early KO. Haye is too fast, has boxing skills levels above Wilder, and punches just as hard.

    Haye has lost against lesser fighters.
    Haye never fought anyone like Wilder!

    Close Fight!

    (Haye-Wilder sparring was sparring)

    This. Haye in his prime had great speed and good power, however his stamina wasn't that great. Wilder knocks him out late.

    Bellew said he would fight Parker and Fury no problem but when it came to Wilder in his own words said - "I would never go anywhere near that man"

    Wilder would beat Haye like he did Spilka , by hanging back , keeping Haye on the outside and timing him with a sledgehammer blow to the head as he comes in with an over hand swing. A wilder punch would do serious harm to Haye's suspect chin.

    Haye would stand a great chance early for the KO. He had good power at HW and his movement was mint. His problem was his tendency to just freeze up in big fights. But wilder does that against opponents at first often too.
