I think Wlad wins, but there is no doubt that Haye will be the toughest opponent Wlad has faced in years, maybe ever. Who was the last opponent Wlad faced with Haye's combination of speed and power? Even the simple fact that Haye enjoys fighting will be a change for Wlad as most of his opponents seem to just turn up for the pay cheque.
The brothers are financially set for life. They also seem too smart to blow their earnings as past champions have. I'd love to see them take a pay cut and concentrate on creating an event that will live long in the memory of all boxing fans.
Really? So if you go to any boxing fan in america and ask them to name the fights they wanna see most, haye- wlad won't show up in the list? That does surprise me. Ye obviously over here the haye harrison fight was a big deal, it did get non boxing fans interested in the sport. Not been so much interest since hatton v floyd. As for which fight should headline, wlad v haye of course. Wlad is the man and haye is the consensus number 3. On paper it's his toughest fight since chag or byrd. Although I am well aware that they can both sell out on their own. I just think a doubly headliner is bound to get hbo interested, it generates more money and k2 get the exposure they deserve. It would be ideal if adamek could convince wbc he is more worthy than solis but I doubt it.
Haye is absolutley unknown in the US unless you are a diehard boxing fan. The two Ukrainians have at least name recognition and are actually well known in both the East and West coast metropolitans which coincidently has a large Russian population.
So who do casual fans want to see wlad fight? I hope to god the answer isn't vitali/lewis/tyson/holyfield
From "The Urban Dictionary": The Eiffel Tower: When a woman (or David Haye) is on her knees (or his knees) performing sweet fellatio on a man (Wladimir Klitschko?) standing, and another man (Vitali perhaps?) is railing her (or David Haye) from behind, thus the two men (K2) join hands above the woman (or David Haye) to form what looks the Eiffel Tower. "Holy **** dude! Did you hear Michael Buffer announce Haye being The Eiffel Tower'ed after the fight?!"
CHEF on a potential Haye-Kevin Johson fight for Haye's HW debut in 2008; "Damn I knew Haye was gonna pick a tomato can for this fight but he really picked the entire field for this one didn't he!!!" CHEF on Vitali-Kevin Johson fight for Vitali's 40th heavyweight fight in December 2009 - "Very good fight." :roflatsch
You got me confused with someone else I dont remember ever saying Vitali KJ was a "very good fight"...... maybe I said it was a good performance by Vitali AFTER the fight...... Your full of **** and the first line about "the entire field............". I dont talk like that dip****....
You want me to dig it up CHEF?! You said Haye vs Johnson was a DISGRACEFUL fight for Haye's heavyweight debut - FACT. What did you say about Vitali-Johnson CHEF? You gonna be honest or do you want me to embarrass you?
I did say Haye KJ was a joke considering all of Hayes big talk and the fact that EVERY HW was calling Haye out I dont remember saying that about Vitali KJ. I can see Vitali fighting KJ as he is champion and has proved himself at HW.... at the time Haye was going to fight, IMO it was a joke just like Barrett was after all the BS haye was talking about the entire division BTW... what the **** do you care what I wrote about KJ. You think Im the only guy who said Haye KJ was a joke ?
