I always find that one sits at a keyboard being a smartarse and writing out a long argument against another poster that it is advisable to actually make sure you own post does not have any glaring screw ups.....so tell me, when did he fight Charles Williams????

God, that's amazing, isn't it? Why did I write Charles?? But it's Arthur, right?

In fact, it was KING Arthur Williams. King Charles??? Where do I get this from?

What a d1ckhead I am.

EDIT: Just confirmed, that, yes, it was Arthur (didn't want to make that mistake again) and, thereofre, yes, I am a tool.

Mmmm... you should see someone about that. Sounds painful.

But, yes. It's the punishment for being deliberately antagonistic. Like when Hector Comacho gets a whuppin'.

Still don't know why I got that wrong. It's, like, the nickname and everything.

Haye undoubtably has a huge punch, and he is quick. Why is this being questioned? The questions that need to be answered and will be are, can he hit Wladimir hard enough to spark him out, and can he stand up to Wlads big jab.

I believe he's one of the hardest hitting fighters in the world. He takes people out in exhilarating fashion, usually from a single shot. I have only seen five or six of David's fights and the ones I have seen have ended badly for the opposition - Mormeck, Mock, Enzo, Barrett, Gurov and Bonin. Yes, not against the highest caliber of opposition, but the way he takes them out is amazing.

And yes, what a right-hand.

But a top 5 P4P puncher?
Edwin Valero, Juanma Lopez, Roman Gonzalez, the two Klitschkos, Vic Darchinyan and Manny Pacquiao are all better P4P punchers IMO.

Why do people forget about Rafael Marquez's power? He's as heavy handed as they come.

Eight years on, how do people rate Haye's power now? The view of the opening post still stands in my opinion.

Haye's win against Chisora showed great power, imo.

Isn't Bomber1 - Tony Bellew!?

If so, I wouldn't be tempted by any last minute tasty sounding bets. He sounds as if he was in awe of the Hayemaker!

Enzo Macc was and is no stranger to the canvas, Bonin seemed shocked as much as anything and wanted to carry on and Gurov was sparked the same by Dunstan years before.

Also, whilst he had Carl Thompson in trouble, he couldn't floor him. Eubank, Nelson, Ashley, Rocchigiani, Sellers, Davis and Rothmann all did.

Clearly Haye carries a hefty dig and has fast hands, but I'm not convinced his fists are the terror of the division.
Ask Chisora.

Well, spotted. Yes, that's Bellew's account.
