yeah its their biggest fight and boxings second biggest but since they are both willing now I thought it would be no problem to make it, I hope it happens though im tired of waiting.
There will be a lot of tears shed when Haye beats the **** outta Wlad and then goes on to put a BEAT DOWN of a life time on Vitali.
This is David Haye, not Tyson circa 87-88, we're talking about. I don't see this speed Haye is talking about, he has fast hands but he's not got the explosiveness of peak Tyson or the head movement OR CHIN needed to beat a monster like Wlad.
A lot of these posters here sound like they are about 11 or 12 years old. Especially the ones that spend all their time here, like this one, 4,300 posts.
Haye has extremely fast hands. The fastest since Tyson, and while he doesn't match up as well against Wlad as Tyson does who has clear stylistic advantage, he is good enough to make this a 50/50 fight at the least. The only thing I worry about in regards to Haye is Wlad's hook. If he can manage to avoid the hook, he'll take Wlad in deep water and drown him. Haye is much more elusive than people give him credit for. When you fight like an imbecile, ala Chambers and Chagaev, and stand right in front of the hardest puncher in the sport, even if your gloves are up, it still has an affect. A) It can potentially hurt the guy blocking the punch. B) It doesn't take NEARLY as much energy from the guy throwing as if you make him miss, especially when he has as much muscle mass as Wlad. If you think Haye doesn't stand a chance, talk all the **** you want, but when Wlad ends up on his back, know that I warned you. As far as Vitali is concerned, his speed is gone. He's too easy to hit for a guy like Haye who not only has reach, but speed and explosiveness. Vitali may have a great chin, but he's not made for the beating he would absorb against Haye. He may prove me wrong and take the ultimate beating to beat Haye, but at his age, I don't see it happening.
Klit fans 1 year ago: 'Haye is a ***** and will never fight Wlad!' Klit fans 1 month ago: Haye is a ***** and won't turn up!' Klit fans now: 'Haye is a ***** and will run all night!' Klit fans on July 3rd: 'Haye is a ***** and Wlad was drugged/poisoned/hypnotised/robbed by the judges!' Klit fans some time later: 'Haye is a *****, Wlad was always over-rated and Vitali is the greatest HW ever!'
I dont know that Haye can get to Wlads chin to even check it...will be interesting if he lands a decent bomb.
I wonder what Haye would reply if a journalist asked him: "David, it is interesting you mention the Lamon Brewster fight. How would your chin react if it was tested with the amount of huge bombs that Brewster took that night before stopping Wlad?" :deal
