    I think so too and I've always rated Haye. Haye's power and speed at CW were exceptional but Usyk would just be too talented for him.

    Not to mention if you saw Usyk partying on his boat it would be with 200 chicks unlike Haye :tiburon:

    hes extremely overated, he never had the poise and skills of someone like uysk, he could get tagged alot by numpties, he could gas and just sit there doing nothing, he was a good brawler with decent headmovent and thats about it.

    Judging by his posts, he might like that.

    Haye KOed fighters because he had more one punch KO power. It's obvious Usyk is no highlight reel one punch KO puncher. Usyk is a better boxer skill wise tho. For what he's shown I think he beats Haye. Could stop him late. Usyk has good stamina.

    Haye was much more explosive and just as quick, but he relied on athleticism much more, Usyk has better skills and much better stamina.
    Let's see how Usyk does in next fight. It will tell a lot as all the opponents left bring something to the table.
