Tyson:" Haye does not hit hard enough to get the respect of Wladimir Klitschko"

Over on the scene. I think Wlad will win tomorrow and I respect Tyson's knowledge of the sport obviously, but this is total bull**** in my opinion. Most people would have Haye as one of the most dangerous punchers Wladimir will have faced, but does anybody agree with Tyson that Haye might not have the power at heavyweight to spark Klitschko like most people say he does?

 

old mike must be on some heavy drugs. one good shot and it's over.. well maybe 2 shots but haye has more than enough for chinny wlad

 

dont agree . Wlad doesnt exactly have an iron chin.

 

Well yes he may have a point, he never KOed a slow as **** valuev, and never took out ruiz or harrison clean, in harrison's case he was looking for a way out fight from the entrance haha, some weird people on here are making him out to be a one hit one kill boxer which is just wrong, and for me will be shown to be wrong whens beat sat night, when his punchs dont have the effect he may (or may not) believe they would

 

Haye has heavy weight power.And speed.Vlad wont see some of em comming

 

helenius spared with haye and said he is not a very heavy puncher, but he is fast and accurate

 

i think he has the power, indeed. he clocked big head valuev with a left hand and had him on ***** street.

 

I was watching Tyson break down heavyweight fights on a British tv show, and was impressed with his ability to see things. He really has a good eye for fighter's skills, so I respect his opinions, but the power ratings are subjective. Hard to really judge without experiencing it for yourself.

Haye has always had power though, and does have enough to hurt Wlad, even later in the fight. The Ruiz and Valuev fights show that his power is legit. Monte Barrett also said he hit very hard for a heavyweight, and he has been in there with almost everyone.

 

Interesting. I'm not disputing this but do you have a source?

 

Its not brute force all the time thats does damage..Haye has respectable power at heavy and the speed that Vlad aint faced yet.
You know what they say about the ones you dont see....

 

i wouldn't agree with that he wobble valuev which doesn't really happen, he sat ruiz on his arse, and he took harrison out ok they weren't ko light out brutal stoppages but i think he has more than enough power to worry wlad. I can't actually wait for tomorrow to find out what happens.

 

Byrd and Chambers of course being slower than Timo Hoffman.....
Of course Byrd fought a stupid fight the second time....

Haye is going to run and potshot.


I did hear that Wlad had been hit a couple of times and didn't fall down...ain't that the oddest thing.

 

I don't know what Tyson is talking about; Haye can definitely hit, and Wlad has a vulnerable chin.

 

By taking 9 rounds to dispatch a semi retired Ruiz who was shot about 5 years previously, on Valuev. What power did he show there? You mean the one time in the whole fight where he stunned the joke fighter Valuev.

I'll let Emannuel Steward answer that one.

 

So Barrett was getting his ass kicked so bad in sparring, they sent him packing.
