    Haye has proven himself against the likes of Mormeck and Enzo Maccarenelli

    Now stepping up to heavyweight to try and rule there

    Lets pretends this is a era of decades ago

    And instead of facing Wlad Klitshko

    Haye had to challenge Heavyweight Champion Sonny Liston on June 20th instead.

    How could Haye of today fared against a peak Sonny Liston? :bbb:bbb:bbb

    I'm pretty sure the consensus will be something like this:

    "Liston by murder."

    I think both Klitschko had the power to take Liston out.
    Liston had the power to take either of hem out though and he was, judging by film footage a more skillful boxer than either of them.

    that about sums it up. Liston would beat his ass like he owes him money

    If Haye had a chin I think he could outbox the sometimes crude Liston. I'm a massive fan of both. All attributes taken into account, I can't see David making it out the winner.
