All the Klit fans say he is a hype job fraud right now. So the question is, if Wlad wins, how long before Klit fans start saying it was a great win?
Haye is a hype job right now, however he was a very good 200lb fighter and could have been a good heavyweight if he had actually fought live opponents. Fighting old washed up 40 yearolds and only fighting once every 9 months sure did not help his case for being a real contender.
It's impossible really to say Haye is better than prime Chagaev, Peter, Iggy and Byrd, we all know that really. That's the one thing about boxing, a fighter has to be judged on what he has done in the ring. These insane made up hypothetical matches that Haye is supposed to win just don't wash in the real World. You can only really judge his actual body of work. If say Wlad destroys Haye in one round and Haye retires than legacy wise it wont even be one of Wlad's ten best wins.
Hes not going to be called a hype job he is going to be called a blown up cruiser weight by his arse lickers.
I will give Wlad credit for beating Haye... He is a dangerous fighter with speed, power and skills. .. He has some more or less big flaws however..
Haye is a hypejob. On a side note, I find it really bothersome how Klitschko nuthuggers **** all over almost all of the brothers' opponent, yet claim that they're ATGs. How the **** can you be a great champion if you aren't really beating anyone?
Sam Peter. ex World champion. Beat hall of famer James Toney twice to put an end to his heavyweight career. Beat McCline. KO'd Maskaev. With 4 or 5 decent wins on top of that. Competed well against an ATG and took him distance while knocking him down 3 times, 2 of which I think shouldn't have been given. Chagaev. Great Amateur. ex World champion. Only one defeat. Has good wins over Valuev, Ruiz, Vyrchys, Sherman Williams. Respectable wins also against Skelton, Drumond, Meehan and few others. Ibragimov Great Amateur. ex World champion. Only one defeat. Has good wins over Holyfield, Briggs as well as a few other decent opponents. Hardly a bad bunch considering they were challengers against the champ.
