    What ****ing legacy you silly ****? Are you honestly trying to tell me his two World title fights at the pointless, waste of time, micky mouse CW division somehow make him a fighter with a worthy legacy? I must also remind you that one of those fights was against that clown Enzo Mac. Going by your reckoning then you must also think Juan Carlos Gomez is an all time great.

    I dont remember juan carlos gomez unifying cruiserweight.

    and if you think cruiser is a mickey mouse division you need to find a new sport to watch you fat texan child of incestuous ****.

    A mere typo m'lord, you really shouldn't feel intimidated by my presence. I am here only to talk about boxing and needless to say to talk about it rationally of course. Boxing if we're honest, is a simple sport made complicated by idiots.

    What weight would you say Haye was for his last 2/3 CW fights on fight night?

    I would say more, I would say basically the exact same weight that he operates at heavyweight today would be more accurate.

    At least, he was weight draining for a few years at CW before moving up to heavy. I would say on fight night he came in about a stone over the CW ( notice I speak Island ape lingo in order to make you Brits feel at home ) limit in his last few fights, you only have to look at the weigh in photos to see this.

    You cant really talk about Haye and Legacy going together.

    Haye was a good cruiserweight - and so far he has done well at heavyweight.

    But he hasnt fought for legacy - he hasnt done enough - he hasnt taken his boxing career serioulsy enough to fight for a place in history.

    He has selected his fights carefully and stragically - and taken the fights that have given him the quickest route to the top of the rankings for belts - and well done to him.

    But when you talk about legact you are talking about fighters like

    Lennox Lewis
    Julio Cesar Chavez
    Bernard Hopkins
    Roy Jones
    Holyfield
    Tyson

    Haye - winning 2 world title fights at cruiserweight and a few fights up at heavyweight - dosent make him have any kind of legacy that has much significance in boxing history.

    Your point being? how many boxers on fight night would still be within the weight they are fighting at in any division?
