KING DAVID?
David Haye is exactly what the heavyweight division needs right now. David Haye has speed, power, excitement, and the mouth to sell it all. I would like to see nothing more than Haye unifing the titles and ruling the division with power. I just don't see it happening because there is one problem his chin. It is true he just TKOed John Ruiz but come on Ruiz is as dangerous as a chinch bug. My problem with Haye is that he didn't even fight the best in the cruiserweight division, and he claimed he cleaned it out. He never fought Steve Cunningham, Krzysztof Wlodarczyk, Marco Huck, or Tomasz Adamek. If he can't, or wont fight either Vitali, or Wladimir Klitschko I think a logical opponent would be the winner of the Tomasz Adamek, Chris Arreola match up. I don't see David Haye fairing very well against of any of the men I just mentioned.
Chris Arreola vs. David Haye
I don't think he is durable enough to beat Arreola. Chris is a tough Mexican from Riverside California who took a tremendous beating from Vitali Klitschko and was angry they stopped the fight. He is big, strong, powerful, and is very aggressive, which would be a huge problem for Haye. Other than his loss to Vitali he has done a good job in the heavyweight division. He knocked out Jameel McCline, Travis Walker, and Brian Minto. Haye got knocked down by feather fisted Monte Barrett. I think the constant pressure from the legit heavyweight Arreola would break Haye. I would pick Chris Arreola to win by knockout in the middle rounds or as soon as he connected with some real power.
Tomasz Adamek vs. David Haye
There was another reason other than big money fights that David Haye didn't stick around the cruiserweight division and his name is Tomasz Adamek. Tomasz is a Polish, power-punching, machine with an iron chin, that can box on top of that. His only loss came to pound for pound great Chad Dawson and he knocked him down in that fight. He has also made the move to the heavyweight division but was originally a light heavyweight. He started his heavyweight campaign by knocking out the old Polish heavyweight legend Andrew Golota. Then he beat a very game Jason Estrada in a boxing match. I just don't think David's chin will hold up to the power that Adamek brings. I'm not sure that Tomasz is even capable of being knocked out let alone hurt. Adamek would win by knocking David clean out once he wore down the Britt.
Vitali Klitschko vs. David Haye
Either one of the Klitschko brothers offer many match up problems for the quick fighter from London. Vitali moves much more quick then he looks on TV. He keeps the fight at the right distance for him to land, and you to look silly. He holds his hands low to invite his opponents in as he counters them with power. They think they are in range when they come in but, he has already moved an struck with power. The height wouldn't be as big of a problem as it would with Wladimir, because he crouches down. Another problem he offers Haye is his chin, it is tough and has been battle tested. Haye would have some early success because of his speed but when Vitali adjusted he would take over and destroy him. I would pick Vitali to win by knockout, in the mid rounds.
Wladimir Klitschko vs. David Haye
Many think he would have a better chance against the younger of the Klitschko brother but I 'm not so sure. Wladimir fights big and uses his height to his advantage while fighting behind his jab. His jab is a dangerous weapon and breaks down his opponents over the span of the fight. It also serves as a tool to keep his opponents at bay. Many people underestimate how good he is because of his cautious style. He is very dominant and has been since he employed the services of Manny Steward. The reason that makes this fight more interesting to many people is the fact that Wlady has been knocked out before and his chin is not as good as his brother. Wladimir does better when he fights people that throw power punches like David Haye. Haye is not afraid to open up so he would be punished for that fact against the younger of the bothers. He would get picked apart with Klitschko's jab. He would get frustrated and start taking more chances which would get him knocked out. He would be weary by the middle rounds and be exhausted by the late if it got that far.
I just don't see a man who backed out of fights from both brother winning a fight against either of them. People will say it is not about fear and site the back injury and the so-called bad contract, but that is weak. He has had many other fighters call him out at heavyweight and has not answered the challenge. He has fought the slow freak show Valuev, John not so dangerous Ruiz, and now he is talking about fighting Valuev again. He is just a flash in the pan, an exciting boxer that is over rated. All of the people who have gotten on the Haye bandwagon express will be jumping off as soon as he fights a decent heavyweight. Weither it is Arreola, Adamek, or either of the Klitschko brothers he will get beat He is too sloppy he throws wild punches and that will get him destroyed by a technician. So, bring on the hate I'm just stating my opinion, and that real talk.

Wow. This piece is utter bollocks. Nothing real about it apart from your hate. That's 2 minutes of my life I'll never get back.
Can really tell you dislike Haye. I can understand some of your reasonings but disagree with majority of it. Can really feel you dislike Haye
I like Haye, he is exciting and we need more heavyweights like him in the division. I don't think he beats either Klit though.
Use aint got a clue have ya? The klit's are boring, slow and the only one who can fight vitali is old and past it, how can you slag off john ruiz for being past it and then bang on how vitali is the best thing since sliced bread when they are the same age. Haye might not have the best chin but you don't have to stand there n take punches all night against big slow heavyweights do you?
John Ruiz was never had it he was a joke as a champion, the only thing good about Ruiz was his old trainer Norman Stone, at least he was funny.
Valuev has nothing and Haye went 12 with him.
Vitali is not the best thing since sliced bread but he would beat Haye on a bad night.
Haye doesn't have that great of defense, If u are saying Haye can't or wont get hit by either brother that is funny.
the Klits are boring, but they are dominant.
Your right I don't like boxers like Haye because he is a fake, All he is is talk, the 3 guys he fought at heavyweight were not dangerous at all. we will see what happens when he fights either of the brothers or the other 2 I mentioned.
If I'm wrong I guess I'll eat my words but until then thanks for the comments.
Yep utter crap. How can you say Haye never cleaned up the Cruiserweight division when he was the unified champion? How did he duck anyone when he came BACK DOWN from heavyweight after his first h/w fight against Tomasz Bonin purely to unify the division and beat the remaining crusierweight people claimed he would struggle against, Enzo Mac? He is only talking about fighting Valuev again because Valuev has a MANDANTORY REMATCH CLAUSE. And who has called him out that he hasn't fought? Hopkins??? Since the Macarinelli fight he has had 1 warm up fight (Barrett) then gone on and won a world title against Valuev. He then fights the mandatory challenger in Ruiz, and you accuse him of not 'answering the challenge' laid down by other top heavyweights. When was he supposed to fight these guys then? Between the Valuev-Ruiz fight? You talk bollocks, simple as. He's going after the Klits and the other belts, not fat, slow, meaningless challengers with no skill. He couldn't give a toss about 'fast' eddie chambers or Cris arreola, both of which had their asses handed to them by the Klits.
