I think Thompson v's Rothmann was the best fight shown on the Beeb bar
none but Thompson was getting the shit beating out of him before that amazing shot. Haye I think will be too quick for him the only probelm for David is his less then sturdy chin and Thompson is still dangerous. The Cat is a fighter I really admire and I think he will still be dangerous. haye with reservations for me.

Haye. Too fast, too young, too talented. Carl should be out on the golf course by now.
Haye will probably blast him early, Carl will clamber up a few times but, if it's a good ref, he'll call it a day over a protesting Thompson.
I think David Haye keeps his delicate chin out of harms way in this one.

Haye will bash up Thompson.

But then he has to watch out...Thompson can catch him witha haymaker.

A great fight

Haye will dominate and stop Thompson within 4 rounds IMO. Thompson is shot, forget the fight with Rothmann...that just proved Thompson was shot. That might sound strange considering he won but seriously he was getting beaten up and only because the South African got sloppy and disrespected Carl's power did Thommo get a chance to land with his big shot. Haye TKO4 Thompson.

If Haye starts fast then I see him winning inside 3 rounds. Thompson has been a grat fighter but his legs are gone and with his customary slow start worstened considerably by age I can see him being blown out of there. He still has a punchers chance though and if Haye doesnt go for an early ko and lets the fight go on past the 5th then I can see Thompson pulling it out. Hayes chin is also a big factor, if Carl can get a good start and land one on target it could be all over for Haye. I think Carl needs a good start... he doesn't want to start out line he did against Rothmann. 8)
