Haye would have caught him and knocked him out .
That’s what I like to see! A lot of people thinking Fury would take Haye the full twelve, or even K.O him, which just seems so unlikely.
In 2014 Fury would have utterly flustered Haye. I give David the benefit of the doubt having him last the entire fight. It is far more likely that he would have quit with an injury or Fury beats him down late.

Tyson, he looked a lot younger in those days.
So you’d give him the win because he looks ‘young’?

If you would’ve properly read the description of the post you would’ve noticed I wrote, “no injuries before or during the fight”.

Any further reasons?
Not really. I actually thought Haye would beat Tyson at the time, I'm backing Tyson in 2018 though. Why? Because I think Tyson would have imposed his style on the fight and Haye wouldn't have had the answer to his size, switch-hitting etc.

I acknowledged your ridiculous parameters in my first post. That is why I chose Fury UD. I also think that it would be far more likely that Fury would stop Haye than the opposite.
Haye was a walking injury for most of the last decade.

How is it ridiculous that I’m trying to make a fair fight? Haye was already prone to injuries around this time so — almost undoubtedly considering he’d have to spring off to hit Fury — he probably end up damaging his Achilles or other injuries. Simply trying to make a fair fight, or a more entertaining fight, you may say.

You just answered your own question. It would not have been a fair fight, period.
If you were trying to make it a fair fight with a 2014 Fury, you should have matched him against a circa 2008 Haye. That would make an interesting discussion.

Okay then, just for you, who would win between 2014 Tyson Fury and 2008 David Haye?

That would have been a terrific fight. I think that Haye would have won a close decision on the strength of a couple of KDs. He may have touched the canvas himself once though.

Given no injuries for Haye, I'd give him a fair chance of winning a decision over the Gypsy King.
