    the huge size difference between the two. Wlad looks huge lol. Haye has to come out fast. He can slow down in round 2 to check the damage, but he has to come out fast.

    Fighters see things differently than us fans...flaws fans don't see, but that's my opinion that Haye has to come out fast. Bang, bang and move. Haye has to dig and make every punch count. He has to put dents into Wlad early. Otherwise he's a sitting duck!

    I never realized how much of a height difference there was between them until this weigh in.

    That's the first thing that I noticed. Haye has finally seen how big Wlad is with his shirt of lol. Haye still looked supremely confident, but now he knows how big wlad truly is.

    I think that too much is being made of the size difference. Haye has all of the size that a person needs. This fight comes down to boxing skill, speed, and power. I think that Wlad will win because he is better than Haye, not because he is bigger. Haye is plenty big enough to get into range, and being smaller can also be used to his advantage. If you are big, fight big... if you are small, fight small. Both are advantages... it becomes very difficult for taller fighters to land meaningful punches on smaller opponents who fight small... they have to overextend to get those punches in and leaves them open for an explosive counter from the smaller guy who can spring up very fast.

    Also, for Haye... it's a lot easier to dig shots up under Wlad's chin as he is punching up. When punching down you land a lot to the forehead/top of the head and have to dig down to get under the chin.

    Everyone has an advantage and it all comes down to how you use it.... and who can impose their will and gameplan.

    See, I think he obviously has a size advantage, but I think too much is being made of it. I just don't see it as being as "HUGE" as people are making out.

    Just saw the weigh in. I haven't made a pick yet, but initially I said that I was rooting for the smaller guy. Things have changed lmao.

    Wlad did the HOOD WAVE ala Deshawn Stevenson style to Haye. Remember the NBA finals and Stevenson waved his hand and fingers in front of his face after hitting a three lmao???

    We'll, Wlad did the same thing lmao. Wlad got to the stage, shook hands with someone...looked at Haye and started waving his hand in front of his own face lmao: You can't see me. Oh man das big with me lol. I'm neutral now. May the best man win.

    Size means nothing. But Haye has now seen how big Wlad truly is was my point. Haye is coming to fight, and he is nor scared.

    I remember when Leonard first saw Hearns. Leonard said Hearns was tall, but looked skinny, almost emaciated was his words. Even though Tommy was considered the puncher, Leonard thought that he himself would be stronger. Sometimes seeing a guy can change you for the better or worse. The greats never let size matter.
