    Just wondering if any of the Klitschko fans think Haye stands a chance? I definitely favour Wlad but I think there is a reason why this is the biggest HW fight in years, namely you can't completely write Haye off.

    Speed + power = high risk. You never know.

    Hayes has a punchers chance, i say the same one peters had in his first fight with wlad, hayes has more speed then peters, but peters ate alot of shots in that fight, an has never been the same fighter sence, hayes does not have the chin to do that he, needs fight on the outside, an look for shots.
    I think wlad boxing skills are very under-rated, i could see him holding hayes to a few punches landed a round till he starts beating pizza face down, but i could also see hayes landing a sold punch, an having the speed to back it up. I think hayes should be a 5-1 underdog, maybe 4-1. It shouldn't be anymore, or less. If it went 2-1 for wlad, that would be a great gamble, this of course betting 200 on wlad an getting 100 if he wins....

    Hayes chin is the reason i would not expect this to be closer in Odds, sure wlad's chin has got questions, but his boxing skills does not, defense an offense. Better chin on hayes, i would say hays would be a 2-1 underdog....IMO:good

    You have to understand a LOT of Haye's stoppages occur via rabbit punches. The ref in Germany wont allow this, I can see haye being dq if he tries this.

    Haye has done sweet **** all at HW in my books. and worried a littlebit just cause of the power but people talk to much about Wlads chin( has never been out cold) and dont talk about the 49ko and how he beats a man down and then drops the hammer. Wlad is dangerous. I remember the rahman fight and i didnt tink wlad was gonna pound him like that. Its all about what the other guy will do and wlad can fight style is pending on them.

    In a word- no. It's only big because Haye can sell it well. He is charismatic in a way that Wladimir is not. It will be entertaining while it lasts, but, barring the unexpected, Haye will go to sleep. I think that if they fought 20 times, Wladimir wins 18 or 19 of them.

    I am the biggest Wlad nuthugger on ESB, and I have to admit I think Haye has a fair chance. He has proven over and over again that he is the real deal. If Wlad shows the same weaknesses he has displayed earlier in his career July the 2th he will be in trouble.

    Not really. In interviews Wlad always comes across as much more likeable. What Haye has is the ability to get people to hate him. That's a kind of skill I guess, but it is not charisma.

    Either way, Haye has only got the proverbial puncher's chance. Wlad is better than him at everything, and has a style that is designed to entirely negate the whole "puncher's chance" thing.

    However, Haye can lunge in quite quickly. If he manages to time it perfectly he might get through Wlad's guard. It would have to be a hail-mary type of a punch though. Just a good punch wont do it, it has to be really, really good.

    Chance of that happening? Really low.

    ever since his Brewster and Sanders debacles I always get a little nervous til I'm sure he is in command

    Haye is not the greatest fighter in the world but he is unorthodox and hard hitting

    I'll be nervous until Haye settles and is under control and Wlad starts jabbing and winning

    Of course I'm worried about Haye, I hope he's ok after the fight. He has a life to live in retirement, no harm wished upon him at all.
