    He makes a few valid points. Don't understand how he can say ''i watched some of Haye's bigger fights'' he would of been better watching Mormeck and maybe the Enzo fight for how long it lasted. I feel Hayes improved a bit defensively but he has always said he fights to entertain and he does leave himself open to counters short and long. I'm actually looking forward to this fight...main reason is seeing Haye fight you know he comes to fight....plus the fact he can hurt Valuev...it makes from fascinating viewing :lol:.

    Some good points but on the whole it's hardly unbiased is it really?I just look forward to it for the simple reason that it's Haye fighting.His fights are few and far between

    Yes.FLINT posted videos of him before I think it may have been about the Maccarinelli/Haye fight.Needless to say he had nothing good to say about either

    Surprised so many have gone for a Haye stoppage.

    It's a hard one to call because it all depends on Don King.

    Haye will talk and talk and talk and talk and talk about knocking out Valuev, then he'll talk some more.

    Come fight night though he'll box and move and win an easy decision on most people's cards.

    Then it'll be down to the judges............

    Haye by TKO. He wont be able to miss with the right hand and Valuev wont see some of the shots coming. He will be stopped for the first time in his career.

    Those who think a Haye win is guaranteed seem to expect Haye to use his talent to the max. I have never seen Haye do that. He tends to alternate between brilliance and sloppiness in the same round. He was in competitive fights with Fragomeni and Mormeck, fighters he dwarfs in terms of talent and athleticism. Of course he should beat Valuev, but he will have ring rust and in his best fights still made the same mistakes he made as an amateur. Against Barrett or cruiserweights he could afford to make these mistakes, against the better HW's this might be his demise. So the question is, will Haye be an improved fighter in terms of ring intelligence and strategy, despite only fighting twice in two years?

    He is big enough to be able to go over the top rope....ringside could be a very dangerous place to be if Haye tees off
