Actually he's better then Haye. He used to throw really good combos b4 he got lazy,fat and a headhunter.He'd ko Haye.
You Know, Corri Sanders, he really was talented!!!!!!!!! A great fighter at the wrong time!!!!!! A victim of apartheid!!!!!!!!!! Corrie Sanders with the right training and coaching easily could have been a great champion!!!!!!!!!! Lennox Lewis didn't fight him!! Lewis never did fight a south paw, not even Chris Byrd!!!!!!!!!! Corrie has no Fear He fights everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lewis had a lot of respect 4 him deeming him "the sniper" 4 a reason. They had the same promoter?! Sanders was actually a great athlete @ 1 point. He excelled @ rugby and track also.
Vlad did not prepare for the Sanders fight, did not even spar! Corrie was preparing to fight Valouev in South Africa, had been training for months, was in best shape of his entire career. Vlads other two losses were to Purrity late, simply ran out of gas early in his career. Vlad was drugged in the Brewster fight.
lol i see Sanders still gets massively overated because he destroyed Wlad. Sanders was nothing special, had a **** KO%, and not on Hayes level. Similarly if Sanders fought the Wlad of today he would get brutalized.
atsch Wladimir was beaten, hands down three times by lower tier opposition. Excuses (real & made-up) dont change results & he never avenged any of his defeats. Great legacy building stuff. People suggesting that Sanders was faster, hit harder & was superior to Haye is nonsense.
Sanders is not as fast, but has demonstrated more raw power & is a more aggressive Heavyweight. Sanders has horrible stamina, which means he only has his power very early, but this was enough to demolish Wlad in 2 rounds & give Vitali nightmares for 2 rounds. In the end though, i reckon Haye would run & pot-shot against Wlad, ultimately getting jabbed & grabbed to death in a snooze-fest.
