Haye and his pal will benefit from Haye's height and reach when they step into the ring.

The six-foot three-inch tall Hayemaker, who retired in June 2018 from professional boxing, has a reach of 76 inches.

Fournier is six feet tall and has a reach of 73 inches.

Haye is likely to be the heavier man, having weighed in at a solid 15 stone seven ounces and 7 ounces for his fight against Tony Bellew.

Fournier weighed 13 stone and three ounces in his fight with Reykon, a reggaeton superstar, in April.

Experience

When it comes to comparing their experience inside the ring, it's like comparing apples and oranges.

Haye, a hard-hitting professional who has been to fight 32 times in the ring as a professional, has had more fights than Fournier.

In 28 of his outings, the Hammersmith hitman won. He lost only four times.

Fournier has won nine professional sanctioned bouts and made the walk to squared circle ten more times.

They've spoken.

Haye stated that "This isn't a comeback. This is about teaching Joe Fournier that there are different levels to boxing."

"One must keep their path straight or they risk being pushed aside. You can't buy certain things in life. Joe 'The Billionaire" Fournier must learn these.

"I was the world's heavyweight champion just 10 years ago. I am only 40. Joe is delusional. Champions are not made.

Fournier stated that he would shock the world and knock out David Haye.

"Unquestionably, one of the most difficult challenges in my life, but it is the perfect fight at a perfect time for me.

"Haye, ten years beyond his prime, is racked with injuries. I was late to the pro boxing game, but now I'm in my fighting prime.

"I am healthy, motivated, and ready to prove to Haye that I will win on September 11.
