    Didn't you just claimed he'd be ko'd in 1? Now it's 6? I think Haye can punch, I just think his power is overrated quite a bit. When you think about it, who has he KO'd at heavy? Sure, he's only got 4 fights there...But the Barrett win was unimpresisive. It took him what, six, seven rounds? I can't recall. It took Solis 2 and his ko was far more brutal than Haye's.

    Then we have Ruiz? Now, Haye fans are making a big deal out of the fact that Ruiz had only been Ko'd once in his career, 14 years ago by David Tua. But what they don't know or won't say is that Ruiz deliberately avoided punchers for almost a decade and a half. That's right! Please, if you will, name me one big puncher that Ruiz fought in between Tua (14 years ago) and Haye? Drawing a blank? Well, I'll help you out. There was one guy that still had a trace, a vestige of a punch when he met up with Ruiz. That, of course, was old Andrew Golota. He knocked Ruiz down twice. Bottom line: Ruiz doesn't, never has and never will have a good chin. Which is one of the reasons I believe Haye's power at heavy is vastly overrated.

    Haye knows he is on borrowed time. If he was confident then he would have already gone through with the Klitschko fight. I think he is angling to make the most money off of the exposure of his china chin.

    Right. Haye will not even begin to seriously consider retiring anytime soon.

    That retire by 30 nonsense is bull****, and he even knows it. He's out to make all the money he can, and bask in all the fame and glory for as long as he can. He won't even be warmed up, by 30 years old. He's just getting rolling good.
