      Arrogance is never, ever a positive. Haye is not arrogant. Two weight world champ. He may be boastful but not arrogant. Arrogance is a misplaced or unjustified sense of superiority.

    Say what you want about David Haye but he is one of the greatest Cruiserweights in history. Mastered the commercial side of a dark sport, made his money then got out. The money then tempted him back in but losing to Bellew twice doesn't tarnish his reputation at all for me. I loved watching him fight.

    The frustrating thing with David Haye is that even though he was a double champ? I feel like he could’ve done so much more. Honestly if he just kept his cruiserweight build at heavyweight during that period when he face Tony Bellew and so on it would’ve been a different story honestly think he’s so much more talented than 99% of the roster in the current heavyweight division.

    • @liamr194
      @liamr194 2 месяца назад +4

      There was nothing for him at Cruiser. At that time it was a dead division. Whether or not Haye was as good as people claim, given he largely fought average fighters, is up for debate. But stepping up to Heavy was a bold move and probably the only available one.
      By that point there wasn't really anyone at Heavy either. It had been stagnant for 10-15 years and he lacked the size to flatten the 'proper' heavies.
      It would have been nice to see him now against Joshua, Fury, Parker and Wilder. We'd have more context for how good he is / was
      The one or two real misses were not seeing him in against Briggs and Fury
