    Of the two UK heavyweights, Dereck Chisora and David Haye, who put up more of a courageous, determined fight against a Klitschko?

    Is this a joke? Obviously Gsora. Gsora showed heart, while Haye showed his toe.

    David Haye had to fight the talented Klitschko. Chisora had the benefit of fighting the fraud Vitali.

    In case you didn't know, Wlad is the one who fights all the top contenders, whereas Vitali just fights the slow/fat/shot bums.

    No, I think they both fight the best available contenders.

    They didnt fight the same guy so this poll is pointless.

    Edit: Just seen its another Joe-Haye love-in thread, carry on

    EditEdit: Not that it matters but Haye won more rounds on the cards than Gsora did.

    I actually scored the Haye fight closer but round for round Chisora put forward more efffort.

    Chisora, easily.

    But you gotta factor in the fact that Chisora didn't have VItali's pistonlike jab and left hook to deal with, either.

    Much easier to look good when your opponent's left arm is almost out of the equasion.

    Chisora took some good rights from Vitali, but he didn't go into survival mode like Haye. He kept on trying to win until the final bell.

    Its doesnt matter Haye beat G(ay)soras ass and his trainers too.

    Haye fought a prime one. Chisora fought the 62 year old grey hair older one

    Chisora of course . But Haye fought Wlad who is younger and in better condition than Vitali .

    About even, its convenient to forget that Haye's game is based on being on the backfoot and counterpunching. Haye done his best to impliment his gameplan and his strengths but came up short on the night due to Wladimir being just as reluctant to engage and having the better gameplan.

    Chisora but to be completely honest I think he could have done more than he did, I think he did more against Helenius.

    This isn't even a legitimate poll. Obviously Chisora.
