Would Vitali have beat Haye in 2011 ?

Dear god yes.

I respect Haye but I don't think he would have beaten a talented, hard-punching big man, and Vitali was all that an iron-chinned. Probably a lot of running and pot-shotting.

 

Haye was nothing but hype.

 

Yes.

Easily.

 

It would have been similar to the wlad fight but worse to watch

Vitali was slower than wlad at that point by quite a lot, Haye still wouldn't engage, would have sucked

 

What?
It would look nothing like the Wlad fight.

 

It would

What do you think a 40 year old vitali was going to close the ring down and force Haye into a shootout? Vitalis movement was positively glacial at that point and he wouldn't be able to get near haye

So vitali would throw the jab from range, Haye would do nothing but duck and dive on the outside and vitali would win on activity

If you think otherwise YDKSAB

Here's both men fighting the same man.

Completely different approaches.

Lol yeah he should just use the same tactics he used on Sam Peter him and haye are exactly the same

YDKSAB

 

Missed the point there bud.

Remind me not to engage with you again, I'm dumb enough is at is, I could do without losing more brain cells.

 

Vitali would have fustigated Haye.
Unlike Wlad, Vitali knows how to adapt and throw punches from angles. Vitali would not be afraid to engage. Vitali also has an iron chin.
Either Vitali stops Haye, or Haye tastes some punches he doesn't like and runs the whole night to lose a wide UD.
Haye barely got by a disinterested SNV. His performance against Wlad show he had no business in there with any version of Vitali.

 

Vitali had no footspeed in his comeback

People let their hatred for Haye cloud their judgement on his ability, he had elite footspeed and movement, if he didn't want vitali to hit him, he wouldn't. It's that simple
