And No...he is not for the taking.

Hows the hand mate?

 

Sly lol.

I do think that a stoppage on cuts is a realistic passibility.

 

Trouble is who's done more is entirely subjective.

Is the consensus here that haye would use similar tactics against Vitali as he did against Valuev?

So much for shaking up the division and KO'ing all these bums.

I like haye a lot. I really do. I've followed his career a long time, but I just feel like he's got his chance to step up to the plate and thought better of it.

Time will tell.

 

I don't think the consensus of Haye fans is that he will fight the same way.

I would be genuinly supprised if he went out there and faught that way. He will be trying to stop the guy. He will be trying to unload some big shots on Vitali which no-one recently has really tried to do!

 

Vitali brings different problems than Valuev. I honestly don't think anyone really goes against the Klits with a genuine gameplan, cause NONE of them do the simplest tactic for a jab-straight right fighter: use lateral movement, bob and weave, and work your way inside their best range.

Neither brother is much of an inside fighter - neither's Haye, but he's shown he can develop his skills and change tactics to win a fight. The intelligent abuse he put on Mormeck, the cagey counter-punching against Maccarinelli, the stick and move defensive clinic against Valuev.

There's enough there to say he has the skills and the mentality to do it. As ever, it's a tight-rope because he probably can't take a heavy shot, but it's going to be required viewing to see the tactical spectacle of it.

 

I have heard comments from all of the Klits opponents that they watched the vid, but could not prepare themselves for the reality of the situation, and that incudes Haye. Haye is a UK fraud and is looking for a quick cash in.

 

When Wlad knocked down Chagaev......

 

He's a former undisputed champ! What are you talking about him being a Fraud?

 

The main difference being that most of Klitschkos opponents are not able to put a plan into action as they are either too old, too fat, too scared or simply not talented enough. Haye is none of these things. How can you call Haye a fraud? The level of his competition and his attitude towards the game is a refreshing change these days - certainly no fraud mate

 

Just a lot of people jumping on the anti-haye waggon.

In a lot of ways its building boxing stoking up passion in the fans.

In other ways it's just fing ignorant and fing anoying!
