I don't think it's possible to predict this one with much confidence but I do think that a lot of people are underestimating Klitschko's jab. At the end of the day Klitschko has been fighting decent opposition in the last few years and he's made them look absolutely hopeless. Those opponents have been stunned by the effectiveness of his jab. Does Haye have skills those opponents didn't? Yes. Can Haye win? Of course. But that jab is sensational. And even though everyone knows Klitschko is effective I think a lot of people are forgetting just how effective he is.
Its kind of annoying how this fight is taking a back seat to Murray and Wimbledon. If Murray gets to the final, then the build up will be all about that on the back and front pages of the paper. I think the fight should have been a week later or sooner.

Little dig at DeGale there at the end. i'm sure he's used that Venessa Fletz/ Greggs joke twice now though....

That was me being an idiot. I'd copied Wallets list from another thread and forgot they'd be shortened. Fixed now.atsch
