    "Haye is the best thing for the heavyweight division right now, because he comes to fight, he comes to win, and he's a puncher. That's what the heavyweight division should be all about. The Klitschko brothers are great boxers, but they are boring. They don't take risks. You got to go for it in this sport, and give 100%."

    Expect Freddie Roach to be now hated by Klit lovers. What a sad bunch they are and also very very predictable

    Between the two of them they have a 87.5 Knockout Percentage. Shut up Roach. Why would they take risks when they don't have to? What a dumb ****ing idiotic thing for a TRAINER to say.

    Roach should shut up. Haye had the chance to fight Wladimir but he pulls out.

    Wladimir and Vitali give 100%, they are always in shape and win there fights with boxing skills.

    What risk had David Haye taken in the last 12 months by not fighting any fight.

    Why should a fighter take risk if he had not need too?

    I cannot believe that a trainer is talking so much ****! Boxing is a dangerous sport and Wladimir had an ATG Jab, great footwork and boxing skills. Wlad won 14 Championship Fights.

    What fights wins Haye in camparison to that?

    Roach is wrong here. Every time they fight they take risks. Ali, Holmes, Tyson, Frazier, Holyfield etc all wish they could have dominated in the manner the Klitschkos dominate.

    Haye is good for boxing, no doubt. But he faked injury to duck Wlad and he flat out ducked Vitali, and until he finds the courage to step in wiht the Klitschkos, and stop all the nonsense double talk, he's playing the role of pretender. Should beat Valuev though.

    But guarantee he won't fight either Klitschko in his next fight, he'll find some way out.

    You do reaize that Roach was fired from being Wlad's trainer so you have to take what he says with a grain of salt.

    A little strong, but he makes a valid point. People have been saying this all along, though.

    What would you have Vitali do differently. He has never had a fight ended with him down on the cards, never been knocked down and only lost due to injury stoppages?

    I'd love to hear how you, as his pretend trainer, could improve the mans career. Oh yeah, and he has the highest KO % of any other Heavyweight Champion in the history of the sport. :good

    He's got a point with Wlad imo, there are guys who've gone the distance or gone 6-7-8 rounds with him who he could have banged out in a round or two if he was so inclined.

    I think he means the Klitschkos should stop using their defensive skills and brawl with their guard down so they increase the chance of being KO'd.
    Then everyone can call them bums with no chin or skill.
