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.

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.

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.

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!
