    Haye by decision, can't see him hurting Valuev much, despite comprehensively out boxing him.

    Good call.
    Hayes power wasn't that good at cruiser. Not 1 punch anyway. He tends to stun the opponent with his speed then smothers them with a barrage of punches. I think he and Booth know this won't work at this weight so unfortunately for Valuev he's gonna get busted up.

    Holyfields, err.. Valuevs belt will be passed onto David Haye after a rather disheartening boxing bout. I am sure David Haye does not have the stamina to actually pour it on, but he'll look to keep the sloth (if you dont mind me saying so) off balance and just pick his single, or at best double shots while getting out of the way.

    If Haye has not learned through experience, he will try to take Valuev out and end up gassing himself, making him a target for a mid-late round stoppage. Haye can't take what Valuev can dish out, but Valuev can take what Haye is going to dish out. So Haye should keep that in mind and just box himself to a belt.

    Roach was never and will never be a factor . . . when I make my picks.

    Valuev has a solid chin alright . . . but the acculumulation of punches and Valuev gassing out after the middle rounds will weaken his legs . . . thus I'm predicting a stoppage in the later rounds.

    Surprised so many think that much of Valuev. The guy is an overgrown bum as far as I'm concerned... I'll make it interesting and pick Haye by late rounds TKO. Either by KO or corner stoppage or whatever. Haye's speed will enable him to bomb on Valuev at will.

    Valuev by late TKO. I think Valuev that fought Barret shows up and Haye is too stupid/proud to box carefully and will try to take Valuev out - bad idea.

    Valuev by late stoppage. I'd make Valuev a 65-35 favorite so Haye is live in this one.

    Unless Haye gets him out of there early, Valuev's size will wear Haye down which will have him throwing wider and wider punches resulting in the Savior getting caught by more and more punches.

    I have also read Haye was pressured to have his camp in London which has been less than stellar. I think his untested HW stamina will be his undoing in this one.

    What's the bet? an avatar? im down for that

    The Valuev that merely won via SD against Holy? Did he tire out the 47 yrs old Holy? :think

    . . . but yes . . . Valuev is very much capable of KOing Haye if he can catch him.

    Yeah I hope Valuev fights aggressive b/c if he does he should be able to put Haye down. If Haye got knocked down from Barrett, than Valuev can def do it. I just have a feeling that if Valuev can survive the first couple of rounds, Haye will gas out from Valuev leaning and bullying him in the ring.

    Yes mate. Within reason of course so it doesn't involve a ban.

    To confirm.
    Valuev win = I wear an avatar of your choice for 2 months
    Haye win = You wear an avatar of my choice for 1 month

    Agreed ??

    A lot of people were saying that Valuev didn't try much b/c he respected Holyfield and didn't want to hurt him since he always looked up to him. I wonder if it's true???
