    A prime Lennox Lewis (for me probably the Rahman rematch, possibly Golota fight) - how does he beat David Haye? How would the fight play out?

    I personally think Lewis would win by KO, probably in the first half the fight.

    Any suggestions on what one of Lennox Lewis' opponents could give us any comparisons?:think

    Fight Exactly like Wlad did but Lewis wouldnt be scared to chuck the right hand. It might miss for abit but the first one that lands flush would have Haye sleep. Lewis inside 4 i would say.

    Lewis by decapitation.

    Couldn't see it lasting longer than 38 seconds. lewis actually knew how to cut the ring off unlike most of todays HW's, Haye would back peddle as he does against bigger guys but Lewis wouldn't be as reluctant to get in range as much as Wlad was and the first right hand he throws would spell the end

    Tua and Briggs would be good comparisons I believe. Tough fight for Haye. I suspect he loses this one 7 times out of 10 with Lewis winning those 7 by points in a similar fight to the Tua one. Haye will hurt Lewis quite a lot if they were to fight 10 times and thus would jump on Lewis and stop him. This might sound controversial but Haye probably has a better chin than Lewis. Against Thompson Haye's stoppage loss was down to fatigue and when "dropped" by Mormeck that was actually a slip. On the other hand Lewis was badly knocked out cold a few times.
     
  6. Haye is nothing like Tua or Briggs.

    You fail, yet again.

    Haye wouldn't be able to hurt Lennox, who'd treat him like a rag doll.

    Lewis KO1.

    Pretty much, except I'd go for Lewis KO2, with Haye suffering a knock down in the first.

    :roll: eh? **** me thats the worst one ive seen in a while:yep

    Lewis would muler haye, lewis liked runners, cos as someone said he could cut the ring off and move well for a big man,also both lewis ko's were avenged with brutal fashion.
    Im a fan of haye, but lewis beats him everytime, he would prob beat him now if he got in shape ;)
