    David "the toe" Haye! He was World Champion.

    Both actually fought good defensively, which happens to make for very boring fights. Same can be said for Ibragimov.

    at least haye won 2-3 rounds, unlike johnson. But yeah poor effort from both, when it was obvious their plan wasn't working they should have gone all out and done everythng they could to win. They both ****ed up what were probably the biggest fights of their careers.

    HAye was diving all night long! Running away from Klitschko! Biggest loudmouth ever! and even after the fight he showed the worst excuse in boxing history by showing his ****ing little toe instead of being a "good loser"!
    wich makes his performace all in all disgraceful!
    He also was World champion and not a contender like johnson!

    Jean-Marc "The French Tyson" Mormeck looked like an amateur that night.

    Strange that someone feels the need to ask this every six months.

    Haye made sure he wasn't hit flush by the big right hand or the snapping left hook. That says a lot about his defense, even if he faked fouls disgracefully. If Wlad had connected flush with either hand like he's done against so many others there's no doubt in my mind that Haye would've been KO'd brutally. You have to give credit for Haye lasting the distance even if that strategy made the fight less than exciting.

    You also have to give credit to Wlad for outboxing a very good boxer with power & technique, even though Mormeck was much smaller.

    I had it a shutout for Wlad, maybe a single round for Haye toward's the end.

    defesinvely haye fought a good fight, but he didn't engage at all, no balls going forward. So frustrating to watch.

    This one. Mormeck just collected the paycheck, didn't throw a single punch. Heck Austin at least pawed out his jab two or three times. Mormeck .. nothing.
