    he has the tools ...tho not so much willing to confront other fighters
    other than that, its speculation...

    I'm not saying Haye is a particularly special fighter, but most heavyweights are totally unimpressive and the reality is that Haye is a good athlete with decent skills and a bit of power, even at the higher weight. The problem is that because of his achievements at CW and the money he has made, he's complacent, no incentive to be active. Just chasing the Klitchko's for the money and the hope they he might, somehow, get lucky and beat them. He could have copied the Klitschko's by fighting a lot of 'C' class fighters over a number of years, building up his reputation and bank balance, but really, what is his motivation do that? If he fought half as much as he talked, he'd be like 76-3 by now.

    This is pretty funny. Anyone who thinks that Povetkin would beat Haye or anyone with power is wrong.

    Adameks "better chin" which is highly debatable means bobbins, you think he's going to plod through hayemakers to use his "inside game", no, he'll get blasted by the firepower before he gets close, it would be the equivilant of a cop in body armour trying to walk through minigun fire, "ripped to shreds" come off it mate, just come off it

    Chambers is barely if at all faster than Haye and has NO power, Speed vs Speed + Power = Haye win

    Povetkin and Johnson?

    now i know you are trolling

    This might come as a shock to you little lad but young master Haye actually spent the majority of his career at CW.

    Being more active doesn't make you a great fighter, just look at Eric Crumble. There's no money and no need for Haye to beat on Adamek and Chambers. At Cruiser those would have been good fights, but these two have not taken at all well to HW. don't call the low level opposition Adamek faces as good as, this is one **** poor era. Never forget that :nono:nono:nono

    I know he spent a lot of time at CW, perhaps i chose my words wrong. But unlike chambers and Adamek Haye has actually achieved at HW. True not anywhere near the klitschko's but the point is that many CW's don't really do well at HW hence why Adamek was staggered by vitali's jab :bbb

    I was just pointing out that neither Klitscko had beaten the one fighter who was bigger than them in the whole division even when he had the WBA they never tried to fight him. Also speaking about overhyping resume's Klitscko fans like yourself are known for that. :-:)-:)-(

    How many heavies has Haye beat then that were either Ring ranked top 10 at the time of the fight or after? I'm expecting a very, very high number from you after you've built up Mr. Haye's accomplishments to such a high level.

    Do you actually follow the sport or do you just sit in your mother's basement hitting yourself over the head with a claw hammer while bashing the keyboard 24 hrs a day?

    For god sake, if this was a respectable division Adamek and Chambers would be lucky to be in the top 25 ffs. Forget the ring comic rankings they don't mean **** in this division because there aren't 10 good fighters. Haye has held a world title belt at HW. The closest chambers and adamek have gotten is being pounded on by the hands the Klitschko's use to hold their belts :lol::lol::lol:
