    I love this. Haye stands in front of Wlad with his hands by his waist and his chin poking out, but despite apparently having an ATG jab he struggles to hit him. Then the Klit fans come on and say Wlad didn't get the ko because Haye was running.

    :rofl idiots

    Speaking of idiocy, in that area, it is hard to beat you. :lol:

    I thought you said Gaye would get the KO. But it is hard to get the KO when you spend too much time on your knees.

    Nah, I actually predicted Wlad by KO. But he couldnt get it despite outweighing Haye by 40 odd lbs, Haye standing in front of him for long periods with his hands down by his waist and his chin sticking out, and Haye diving in like a reckless amateur leaving himself off balance and wide open.*

    But yeah, it was just Hayes running that stopped the KO. Nothing to do with Wlad missing his punches all night because an opponent moved his head, *and him also being unwilling to take any risks at all.*

    On esb stadning in front of your opponent with your hands by your waist and defensive head movement is called 'running.'

    Yeah Klitchko fans want opponents to stand in front of Wlad without movement like Chagaev and Chambers did.

    They get lots of praise from their performances

    No defense = being brave and manly.

    Defense = running and being gay

    Seriously though, look at any boxer in the top ten p4p list now. Imagine how they would punish a fighter who was diving at them with wildly reckless amateur punches, falling off balance and leaving themselves completely defenceless. Now, throw in to the mix that they also have a huge height, reach and weight advantage. Theyd get knocked out.

    Haye was doing this exact thing - he was WIDE open every time he missed his punches. Steward even pointed this out several times in the build up to the fight, so it was probably part of the game plan to capitalise on these mistakes. But all Wlad was concerned with was getting the **** out of the way of Haye's punches. He never got himself into to position to punish Haye for his mistakes, he simply allowed him to regain his balance and went back to jabbing at him.

    Wlad is a robot he doesnt have reflexes, He just follows pre-programmed algorhythms, counter punching is not part of the programme.

    Ive said before - for the most part, Wlad is a fighter Is a fighter with two very distinct modes, which work perfectly for him but do not make for hugely entertaining fights.

    He offence is to use his size to control range and keep opponents outside with his pawing jab, which is mixed up with a much harder jab once he his opponent measured. Every now and then there will be a right hand following it up. He usually dominates his opponents with this style.

    Then when an opponent actually attacks he goes into defensive mode. He gets his hands up and uses his decent footwork to back up out of danger. When the danger is clear he resets and comes forward behind the jab again. Then this is rinsed and repeated.

    Because of his eagerness to back up so far when an opponent attacks he is rarely in position to capitalise on mistakes his opponents make, such as Haye being off balance and wide open.

    That's what I said... Counter punching is not part of Wlad's robot programme! :lol:

    If Vitali ****ed up Lewis to the point that he had to retire I wonder what he'd do to Haye
