How long would haye last in a ring with......

[Humean]

Tyson in his absolute prime was a killer in the first half of the fight but should you survive that then good fighters would stand a good chance against the mentally weak Tyson. Haye is cagey enough to perhaps survive, but then again if Spinks couldn't then I suppose Haye wouldn't be able to. Haye's power shouldn't be underestimated though. Probably a Tyson early KO though if Tyson at his very peak, 1-3 rounds.

For a start, it would be deeply, deeply fascinating to see how Haye would have actually coped with the sheer scale of physical and mental intimidation coming his way from Iron Mike before the fight.

Haye is a confidence merchant; always talkative and seeking to apply a degree of one-upmanship over his opponents in the lead-in to a big fight.

The script often varies from David but the theme of the play is always pretty much the same; I am the real star, I've got the vastly superior ability and you are the support act/fraud who is about to be exposed.

That just does not happen in the run-in to a fight against a prime Tyson; Mike would just cut Haye dead in these situations and come into the fight having applied a great deal of psychological pressure of his own.

I can actually see Haye getting genuinely spooked by someone like Tyson......and he would not be the first.

On fight night, I think most posters have covered the most credible scenarios.

Haye tries to move and skate, fervently hoping the typhoon somehow blows itself out and loses by a country mile on points.

Or he chances his arm and gets turned into roadkill, rather like Bambi meeting a T57 battle tank on the charge.

lol that would be wicked to see. I honestly think haye would be scared ****less. There would be nothing in hayes eyes that would scare mike, I can imagine him looking straight through haye. And with haye looking like a small heavyweight, I think Tyson would be as confident has tysons spinks and would probably have the same outcome
