;D
Looking like he’ll get his title shot if he wins on 21st July then.
Gonna be giving him a bell over the next few days to do another exclusive `podcast interview for the site.
Hold tight
Smash 8)
wow…doesn’t he have like 16 fights total??..little premature for a #1 ranking unless the CW division is in peril…I think they are pushing this kid too fast…
Agreed. He needs more experience before challenging too highly…he isnt ready for 12 rounders yet!!!
He can punch though!! But needs to work on the basics a little more. Stamina does help ;D
so he’ll be in line for his second Pro loss then?
BASICLY… WTF. His handlers better have their whits about them and not allow this kid to be thrown to the wolves
How is he ranked over Grigory Drozd? or Vadim Tokarev? or even Enzo Maccarinelli?
Haye is the EBU champ which carries alot of weight with the WBC, see Junior Witter also.
co-sign,i’d like to see david at heavyweight
He won’t last more than a few fights at Heavyweight 
i agree but i think he could beat any of the current crop of young heavyweights britain have and it might spark some excitement into the division,scott gammer as british champion does’nt do alot for the heavyweight scene
I honestly don’t think he can take the power of a Heavyweight.
Hayes last fight… he seemed to struggle even shifting his opponent with some heavy punches early on and he was getting some back that seemed to sap him badly.
Jury’s still out on Haye for me 8)
i agree with you about him not being able to take a heavyweights punch,but thats part of the excitement,will he land before they do etc
After seeing him fight alot of times now and seen a couple of training sessions, for me he deosnt seem the type to grind it out or dig deep, i honestly see him getting beat when the going gets tuff and that will defintly happen now he is ranked number 1.
I don’t think he could even win a World title at Cruiser
with his power he’s got a very good punchers chance to win a cruiser weight title
:coolclick: thats excatly how i see it.
Smash? you and young David not friends anymore? ;D
I disagree about his last fight by the way. I thought it was a positive thing rather than negative. He did as he does and tried to blast the bloke out but it didnt happen, he then got a bit confused and took a few clips but ultimately came back quite late in the fight to get the stoppage.
Obviously gutting it out over twelve rounds against someone like Mormeck or Bell is a different story.
One negative is that he still expects the KO to come rather than letting it come, that takes more out of you. He still needs to settle down.
O’ Neil Bell would Knock him TFO!!! Ditto Mormeck.
what about the guy that beat him?
;D
IMO he’s too one dimensional with regards to the punches he throws i.e. 1,2…1,2…1,2..
When that fails he looks poor and needs to widen his arsenal (GO TO THE BODY DAVID)
Think he’d be a much better fighter if he used a more varied array of shots.
Hopefully Lennox can teach him to use more punches while over in Miami.
And his Stamina is a big worry.
