Seems like we may see a TOP HW boxer in MMA!

[Darren Avey]

David Haye wants to retire from boxing in a year and is very interested in going into MMA. I dont have a specific link but he has said it in countless interviews including one on sky sports news last week!

He's been saying this for a few years now but as much as I hate MMA he will get slaughtered unless he learns to dry hump.

[monstercalves]

if this is true then hes an idiot......


so much more money in heavyweight boxing even though we're in the worst era of the heavyweights


if i were him i'd be lookin to make my mark as the best heavyweight in a while and increase my bank balance,,, if he gives up on boxing to become a mediocre mma fighter with no fight purses etc...... he will end up regretting it..... he will retire with no money and be a poor old man someday

I can't see that happening somehow. Haye is smarter than that and he'll do a Calzaghe and retire for good going out on top as soon as he beats one or both of the Klitschko's.

well if he did MMA, he could do extremly well.
Hes not James Toney who's slow, fat, a light puncher and flat footed (albeit incredible skill on the inside).
Haye would easily be the hardest puncher in MMA; very fast not just with his fists but also with his feet and head.

[OneMoreRep]

Supposedly the guy has a 25-1 record, not too shabby...



"1"

P.S. While promising, he does look more suited for Gay Black Porn...

I love how people just throw shit out there like they know lol!

Would be cool though., But it would take him years to reach a decent level I hope he understands..

What's a decent level ? and How many years?

[spinnis]

well I guess his goal is the top?

he needs to work haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaard especially with Only a boxing background or does he have anything else?

Top= UFC champ or just being in the UFC.?

[spinnis]

just being in the ufc would be huge for him and that would take years if he wasn't well known.

But dana knows him, and he has been "ringside", so maby 18 months or a little more and dana might give him a shot.

But against a wrestler or a high level grappler it woould just be total domination anyway... And giving him to someone who would stand would be unfair? I dunno
Entertaining either way and I hope he takes it serious.

Haha you look like a fish

I don't know  , Mitrione is doing OK with little martial art background.

Strooonger then a boxer though? better td defense and all around stronger at manhandling people?

Only had one fight against a decent opponent thuough but he did look good lol. But isn't he a few years in now..

David Haye needs to stop ducking the Klitschko's. He is making himself look very silly.

Why the fuck would he go to mma to earn peanuts? Nobody even follows mma in europe, he would go to being in the headlines to getting zero coverage. The Harrison fight was appalling. His last three ppv's have been appalling. He is just looking to make money.

In regards to mma, depends what his grappling is like, if he has decent defensive grappling, he would slaughter anyone in the heavyweight division. He has durability issues though so could get caught and put to sleep once in a while.

Think a more technical, fast, explosive, mobile, version of Overeem standing. With about the same gas tank and durability. Not close to the same physical strength as Overeem though.

Why the hate BDB ?

you have nooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooo clue about that...

Mma gas tank and boxing gas tank are 2 Completly different things..

Im not saying he has a bad gastank obviously, but you cannot compare like that and not have ANything to base it upon besides boxing..

They both have bad stamina within their respective sports. Haye's isn't going to get better with wrestling involved.

So you're saying bad stamina in boxing and bad stamia in mma puts their stamina on the same level?

I'm saying they are both renowned for having bad stamina. It was a generalistic comparison. Add wrestling and grappling and Haye's stamina is probably several times worse than Overeem's lol.

Thats what I was trying to say lol.

Would be nice to see some Super high level boxing in mma though. it Will be fun if it looks as good with different stance! =)
