    I think Hayes in and out movement will give klitschko trouble.

    Every shot Haye throws , he throws with bad intention and klitschko has proven he can be hit.

    Haye is deceptively quick and does indeed hit hard.

    All of these things spell trouble for klitschko IN THE EARLY ROUNDS where klitschko has proven he can be beaten.

    Something just tells me we're in for an upset.

    I may eat crow on this one.......but I just have a feeling.

    I disagree; not many guys can reach Klitschko's chin.

    If Haye is able to go inside Wlad's jab he will suceed...No way he beats Wlad if he choose to box from the outside...

    No way Wlad is losing this fight.

    Yeah I agree. It's absurd to think that Wlad could ever lose this fight. Almost as absurd as losing to Ross Purity or Corrie Sanders or Lamon Brewster. I mean, that could NEVER happen...right?

    Haye has a very strong jab himself

    Its a pretty sturdy limb in my opinion, even though Wlads the favorite its not by much.

    Good point, although I think the Wlad of today would have went 2-1 in those 3 losses. Still I give Haye a decent chance at beating Wlad.

    Sorry to derail, but that's a frigging awesome picture of Michael Katsidis. What a beast. I love that guy. Brings the pain every fight, whether it's his or his opponent's - usually both!

    The only thing thats going to stop Haye is his chin and Wlad's reach.

    Wlad TKO 6

    ... and Haye's poor defence. For all his attacking prowess, when he gets hit, Haye has uptil now shown no real survival techniques. Instead of covering up, he seems to just revert his natural instinct/machismo of keeping his left hand low and trying to duck out of the way of punches despite being buzzed.

    This didn't work earlier in his career, and it ain't going to work against heavyweights. It's hard to see him going on a winning streak until he gets rid of this trait.
