Wlad vs Haye will be one of the worst HW title fights of all times

    Up there with Wlad-Ibragimov and Haye-Valuev.

    Both guys have fragile Mandibles and will be absolutely terrified of the other's power.

    It will be stand of, no one will want to commit to power punches out of fear of leaving themselves open.

    Wlad will keep his left pretty much extended, Haye won't be able to get close. Lots of faints, and lots of taking a step backwards by both. It will be awful.

    People want to see this fight, but it will be a snooze fest. It will stink out the joint, period.

    Yeah.

    Id actually rather see Vitali vs Haye. Vitali has chin and wont mind throwing a right hand ever few rounds unlike his brother

    Wlad will throw 10 right hands MAX in 12 rounds vs Haye. Terrified of getting countered like vs Ibragimov. That fight was an absolute disgrace to prize fighting.

    You're probably right, but we need to see it anyway.

    I think it risks being a dull chess match until one of them catches the other. I do think that they will unload at some point and with the history between them and the belief they each have that the other's chin is suspect, they will try to unload at some point. They both have it in them to throw great combinations if they find an opportunity that is low-enough risk. So I think that it will start out dull but end in a good - and exciting - knockout.

    Clyde understands the stylistic implications here. :deal

    Haye will run around the ring while Wlad will follow but only semi commit.

    But maybe this is why Haye is ducking Waldo he knows how completely **** he'd look. So bad in fact he could never live it down.

    consider this , if vlad will land his jab on hayes chin it will be over befor it started,and i asume will be the same if haye lands his haye maker,but it is so wide you can see it mile away.so it could be also straight right comming in,than it is for sure haye will need a stratcher,enother option,they bougth land and at the same time,than ref have to count who will stand up first and declare him a winner,same like wwe:deal

    i could well turn out to be a stinker for most of the fight but one things for sure haye will make sure he's not on the end of that jab, he will have his moments and as we know with haye he'll go for it at some point, unlike the last few vlad has been in with, most of them havent even tried.

    it wont be a walk in the park but i do think haye will get vlad on jelly legs.

    So what, Jerome. Haye's the closest challenger to the Klitschkos, and it's the most significant fight by a mile in the HW division. It needs to happen.

    He wasn't terrified to be countered against Iggy, he didn't know what to do against a 6'1 guy who was crouching down as low as legally possible. Byrd is a much better counterpuncher than Iggy and Wlad wasn't hesitant in those two fights. Haye is taller and is more available to be hit. I would expect a cautious fight for 3 - 4 rounds, but eventually there will be action.
