    My memory might be wrong, but didn´t Wlad wobble Iggy too? :huh
    In one of the later rounds he caught him at the ropes....

    Fair play I enjoy being sober watching a good fight so I can appreciate the little things but I love watching a fight with my friends, drunk with lots of money on it. The emotional rollercoaster is unreal :good

    In every fight i've been to with a majority English crowd there has been a fantastic atmosphere, people cheering, singing songs and having a good time... In Germany eveyone in the crowd is wearing a suit and scared to fart in case everyone hears them.
    English watch fights intently... but we also show we're enjoying it and get behind the fighters

    The momentum of this fight really has faded, i'm not bothered either way. Haye won't get anywhere close to landing anything significant, and Wlad will rightfully add the WBA title towards his collection...

    Everything mentioned in that post is all your opinion and yours only. Lots of people are still very interested in it and is far from a foregone conclusion.

    Makes me laugh when people talk about how quick Wlads feet are.... his feet are as slow as ****, he just looks fast because he has spent the last 5+ years fight fat ****s who can't move their feet. This time he is fighting a man with quicker feet and hands and enough power to stop him.... this is far from a foregone conclusion... Wlad is the favourite no doubt, this is HW boxing and i think Haye with his skill set and Wlads vulnerablities is Wlads toughest opponent since Sanders

    Like it or not, for a guy who was desperately selling himself as bringing excitement to the HW division and delivering only blockbuster, highly exciting fights Haye has under-delivered in the excitement section. Haye's allegedly so ultra-exciting HW title fights felt a little bit like being promised a genuine Ferrari by the car salesman and then being presented with a 1988 Hyundai. Talk about hype and not delivering.

    I wouldn't complain if Haye hadn't drummed up the marketing machine that badly, over-promising and then under-delivering. Heck I didn't complain about Byrd's boring fights, not one bit. He never promised to be the savior of the HW division. Neither did Wlad.

    Why can't some Haye fans not apply the same terribly low standards they have to their messiah to other HW fighters? Why do you give Haye a pass on total **** fights when you rip Wlad for the same **** fights?

    We don't. Valuev and Harrison were always going to be bad fights. we new that going in. Harrison and Valuev have never been in exciting fights, they were the problem not Haye.

    Sam Peter, Eddie Chambers, Ruslan Chagaev were all in good fights before Wlad and have been since, but the Wlad fights were stinkers.

    The Haye vs Wlad fight will also be boring but thats not Hayes fault.

    Haye said he wanted to be more exciting than the current lot... he is... job done. He didn't say he was going to be so exciting he was going to be a replacement for Disney World... just that he wanted to replace the boring plodders with a bit of excitement... and bar one fight that went the distance in which he only had 1 hand for a majority he has stopped all of his opponents and the other bad fight was only bad because he refused to take his opponent out early and carried him for 2 rounds.

    Besides... no point trying to discuss anything regarding Haye with you... you have proved yourself time and time again to be one of the worst Haye haters on this forum and regularly get picked up for bull**** posts trying to make Haye look bad where you are clearly talking bull**** or stating your opinion as if fact...

    Am I a hater because I measure him using *HIS OWN STANDARDS*? Is that it? Because he said he was tired of **** HW title fights and then he himself delivers 2 **** fights out of 3?

    Oh wait it's not his fault right? Him and Booth didn't hand-pick Valuev and Harrison at all did they? :deal

    I am so sick of these double standards. Haye gives us sh** on a plate and it's amazing. Wlad gives us sh** and it stinks. If you hate boring or disgraceful fights then at least put your emotions aside for a second and be consistent with your analysis. If you're critical of Wlad why not be at least somewhat rationally critical with Haye?

    The thing you can't deal with is that I am not one of the naive Klitschko fanboys making the regular dumb "Wlad is unbeatable" or "Vitali is ATG #1" bull**** claims that you can easily take apart. Whenever you get presented with a factoid that doesn't suit your Haye fanfare you label the other side as haters and end the discussion.
