Is David Haye The Man to Unify The Heavyweight Division? Malignaggi – Hatton Prediction

Haye Stops Barrett, Looks Sloppy and Unimpressive – Latest Boxing News
By Michael Lieberman: In one of the worst refereed fights that I’ve ever seen in my life, British heavyweight David Haye (22-1, 21 KOs) stopped American Monte Barrett (34-7, 20 KOs) in the 5th round at the O2 Arena (Millenium Dome), Greenwich, in London.

By Jim Dower: With tonight’s 5th round stoppage victory by David Haye over journeyman Monte Barrett, should Vitali Klitschko be Haye’s next opponent rather than Wladimir?

Is Haye Crazy To Want To Face Both Klitschko Brothers?
By Dan Ambrose: Having been a big fan of David Haye for a number of years, it disappoints me to see him going a little unhinged recently with his desire to fight not only Wladimir Klitschko, the IBF/WBO heavyweight champion, but also his brother Vitali. It seems as if Haye’s ambition is way above his current skill set and physical limitations.
Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t mind seeing him fight the Klitschko brothers if I actually thought he could beat either of them, but at this present time, I don’t give him much of a chance of beating either. I think he has a puncher’s chance against Wladimir, but only if he can land a lucky punch in the first round or two.
