With every Wlad knockout does Haye's performance look better?

    How many other hws could have took those shots from wlad, avoided a lot and even rocked him in the last round?

    BOTH of their performances in that fight warrant criticism.

    Nothing that happens outside of that particular fight changes anything about that.

    No. All fighters should be able to easily dominate and stop their opponents early, no matter who they are and anything less means they are bums. Haye and Volo are both bums. Why couldn't they easily dominate and stop each other early? The heavyweight division is ****.

    Haye made Wlad fight cautiously, so it says something about his quality as a fighter. Overall, i think, he did quite well in that fight. His pre-fight antics and the toe circus were uncalled for though.

    Thompson (again) put up a far better performance than Haye. He even managed to win a round unlike Haye's shut out defeat.

    Kingpin's against Vitali was much, much better. He didn't get an 8 count either.

    Possibly not, but either way we look at it. He's the third best current heavyweight.

    And by some distance at that.

    Not really...
    Just makes a Haye rematch with Wlad better than having shitty Thompson go in there and shame himself looking like a grandfather going down to shots half landed on him.
    (Besides that one solid right)

    and he didn't fall over every time Vit touched him and looked at the ref for help

    Haye will retire after Saturday, again, for the good of the sport

    Ok, ok Haye fans, yes David's ability to survive makes him look like a better boxer than someone that gets KO'd.
