    Vitali's younger brother,Wladimir boxed Haye's ears off enroute to an easy decsion. Would Vitali go one step further and stop him? I say yes.

    Think he would actually, he threw with good volume. Haye would probably **** Vitali off, so Klitschko would be a little spurd on in there. Stopping him in the latter rounds.

    Long night for Haye. Haye went the distance with Wlad, because Wlad is perfectly OK with winning on points so long as the other guy plays his part and gets jabbed in the face all night. Vitali doesn't mind taking a little risk to land the pain because he's got a mean streak and a Ukrainium chin that shrugs off anything thrown at it. I think he might well stop Haye at around 8-10.

    Vitali Klitschko stops David Haye. Klitschko would have carried on fighting Lennox Lewis if they had allowed him and thats the most severe cut I've ever seen!

    No. Wlad is a more well rounded boxer than Vitali and a better counterpuncher, which is what kept Haye honest.

    I see Vitali having a much harder time with Haye’s mobility and handspeed than Wlad did and possibly getting stopped himself.

    Likely it goes similar to Byrd vs Vitali with Vitali dominating. Haye on his bike and slippery, throwing pot shots at the end of each round in the hope of conning a judge.

    I can’t see Haye doing much here unless Klitschko suffers another one of his fluke injuries.

    Vitali was indeed tougher than Wladimir, BUT Wlad had faster hands and hit much harder than his older brother.

    Prime Vitali wins a decision. Haye gets nailed once by a solid 1-2 and gets on his bike.

    Haye beats the old Vitali who had some trouble with Chisora. Too fast.

    Vitali Knocks him out. Haye is overrated IMO
