I would like to stick David Haye in a time machine and drop him into the ring with an early eighties Tyson. That would be really amusing!

Aah sledging, in a true gentlemans sport.
Glen McGrath once got pwned by a classic sledge. After bowling a couple of firey ones at a chunky south African number 11 he asked " why are you so fat mate" to which chunky replies " because every time I **** your wife she gives me a biscuit"Posted 11 months ago # -

"It also shows you have no idea how skilled, and how good your physical attributes have to be to become a world class boxer."
On the contrary, dear boy. I do understand what it takes to be a world class boxer and Haye has admitted himself that he does no road work and hates running. That is why he never goes the distance with the journeymen he fights, as he does not have the stamina.
Someone like Tyson had the skill and power to pull this off (he had bad asthma so couldn't run a great deal), but Haye, in my opinion just doesn't. That is why I said that if it does go into the later rounds, Haye will be knackered. Nowt wrong with that.
Don't get me wrong, I think Klitschko is also a bit rubbish, but there you go.
Oh, and I agree with Bagstard ^^^
Now that would be amusing!

Sheesh... early Tyson, if Cus D'Amato had lived just another couple of years,there would be no debate as to who the greatest was.

Think you're right Gary - sounds wrong to say that such a fine physical specimen as Haye is not an athlete, but he used to struggle badly with conditioning at cruiserweight and couldn't fight for 12 rounds. Now he's not killing himself to make the weight he's probably better, but he does lack athleticism in this department.On the contrary, dear boy.

Someone like James Toney from a few years back would be a (perverse) example of a natural athlete in boxing - no roadwork or even much training at all, show up overweight and still go 12 with no problem whatsoever. Great, great chin as well.

Toney used to make Hattons body shots look like love taps. Did he not kidnap his manager, he was working at heavyweight a couple of years ago.

It certainly would be amusing.
Mainly because Tyson's first professional fight was in March 1985

He'd still get mauled by an amateur Tyson.

not seen the footage of tysons olympic fights or from when he was 14 then..?? Haye still wouldnt make it past the first minute he has no chin to take a punch.

I'm getting quite excited abut this fight now.
Then again, I did for the Haye v Audrey fight too.
Tyson was incredible before he went professional, I find it hard to believe he was so young. He is just in a different category to Haye. Also, Haye's jibes are nothing like Ali's, at least Ali always mocked with a bit of humour and with some class. He had a glint in his eye, Haye just comes across as a little prick.
