    the thing is you never know with Haye and thats what gives it intrigue, what if Haye is so comfortable but knowing in his mind and getting whispers he might get jobbed, decides to go for Broke and goes all reckless, then what? you don't wanna get into a shoot out with a guy who has such a weight advantage when you're a cruiser with questionable whiskers, and another thing, is Haye disciplined enough to outbox for 12 rounds? Like I said what makes it interesting and only thing that makes me look forward to it slightly.

    A beefed up Cruiserweight vs. a Beast.

    Interesting fight, really interesting..

    I find it funny how Wladimir took Valuevs opponent(Chagaev) and Valuev comes back and takes Haye :lol:

    I think Haye will win by points.. Haye might/could pull a Tomasz Bonin tho..

    Haye TKO rds 6-9 with Valuev being pulled out by his corner. These giants age very quickly.

    i see haye approaching the fight in a similar fashion to holyfield, however with youth on his side he will absolutely dominate the freak from the east, winning almost every round in the eyes of most observers. no knockout though, and valuev to win via the most scandalous of 'hometown' decisions...

    Being the WBA there will probably be some bull**** in which someone will pull out at the last minute or a controversial draw or the ring will collapse mid fight.

    I voted 'timberrrrrrrr' but I see a TKO late through accumulation. I don't expect the Russion Oak to be felled, but I'd love to see it! A KO for the ages! Just hope the canvas is reinforced.

    It all depends on if Haye can avoid being punched before he stops Valuev.

    Whenever I think of the Haye fight, this is what I think:

    [YT]<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/gk-7ic9OCKY&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/gk-7ic9OCKY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>[/YT]

    I so hope this happens :yep

    I think Haye knows better than to try and nick this on points (not that he ever does that anyway!) but I think after 4 or 5 rounds he'll look for the big KO!

    The more I consider this fight, the more interesting it becomes. I think Haye wins on points, or maybe by KO if he can beat Valuev to the bottom of the beanstalk and swing that axe.
