Knew it would spark a response from the Chef :yep I know there's some doubt in your mind in regards to how much VITLAY has slowed down and aged :hey
Which is probably what Haye is desperately holding on to for a shred of hope after his miraculous recovery from hand err I mean back injury :rofl Hope Haye isn't shadow boxing in training anymore. We'd all like to see this fight happen :good
Ill be honest. IMO Haye has a better chance against vitali due to age, past injuries Etc. Vitali doesnt have the same footwork. I think he will be to stationary for the Hayemakers from Haye. The thing that will save vitali is that lean back that he does while throwing that left 1/2 hook 1/2 uppercut as Haye tries to reach Vitali. PLUS, that jack hammer jab/uppercut he throws I still think Vitali wins by KO 7-9
Yep that lean back style is a tricky one to get to but i think Haye will be able to catch him fairly easily with his speed, Vitali hasnt got the reflexes anymore and both his hands are basically down by his waist after a round or 2 and that coupled with Haye's power i just see it going only one way. If he had a better jab like Wlad i'd be more worried but he doesnt have that.
you could be right. I think it really comes down to how well Haye can take Vitali punches. If Vitali starts to get to Haye, Haye will get desperate and try for the "1 big punch" and Vitali will catch him this will be a very interesting fight. I am anxious to see how Haye does at this level of HW
VITLAI will knock HAEY into BOLIVIAN at some point within the first 6 rounds. HAEY leaves himself wide open to counters, just because he is fast does not mean he is slick. His chin was suspect at cruiserweight, he was rocked and dropped numerous times in numerous fights down there, and stopped by a 40 year old fringe contender. Hard to imagine him taking even one big right hand or left hook from VITLAI
Wow you're actually objective :good In my layman's opinion I see no advantage for Haye in the "Tale Of The Tape" except maybe the intangible element of age. I'm betting Vitali by 4th/5th rnd KO
