    In my opinion this fight is 50 - 50. I wouldn't be surprised who wins. I wouldn't be surprised if Wlad ko's Haye in R2. Or vice-verser.

    But to say the Harrison v Haye fight was a fix is just silly. :patsch

    Can't believe people think that by looking at a youtube clip of Haye opening his mouth after throwing lot's of combinations to take in a deep breath and throw some more.

    if you read the interview roach is not saying that haye will win. he is saying what 90 percent of the rational boxing fans know about this fight. haye has to land something significant in the first three rounds or wk is going to take over witht his jab and power. if haye pulls the same **** like he did against valuev, he is not going to make it to the end of the fight. if he has the heart to pull a sanders or a brewster he has a chance and that's if he doesn't get caught first.

    wk has more ways to win that haye.

    also, wk is a much more complete fighter now than when roach was with him.

    big MWs is more precise :). to be honest I haven't seen Haye in any trouble recently I think that their chins are more or less on the same level. This is going to be explosive. But I agree with Fredi if Haye wants to win he should go for it early. With every jab his task will become more and more difficult

    To say that ridiculous affair WASN'T a fix is just silly. And I knew that the British Boxing whatever they call it so=called investigation of it would be nothing but a cover up. That's the name of boxing these days, corruption and hype.

    didn't bother watching it, wasn't a fight for serious fight fans was it?

    one for the general public.

    don't get why people get so upset?

    If they want to reduce boxing to wrasslin "sports entertainment" complete with pre-arranged story lines and winners than call it what it is. That thing was billed as a fight, not an exhibition.

    And both Haye and Harrison should have been banned from boxing because of it + Haye admitted to betting on the round and getting his friends and relations to bet on the round, and then he changed his story, and the phony British investigation just swept it all under the rug.

    Haye is a phony hpe job from beginning to end.

    "I don’t see David Haye as the underdog in this fight" -and that means backing??? hahhahha brits are so delusional.He was talking to british reporters ,that's why he was nice to david haye .When he spoke with american reporter he picked wlad to win this fight , so I'm not sure you understand he's just talking bull.

    I agree Haye is probably under 6'3", but whenevery they've been photographed together Haye has been wearing sneakers and Wlad dress shoes with a heel giving him at least an extra inch. But you're right, the height difference is certainly over 3 inches.

    Roach is a smart guy, he knows what Haye must do to win.

    However, if Haye doesn't manage to get Wlad out of his comfort-zone, he is doomed to be KO'd himself.

    You can tell that Roach detests the Klits holding the HW division hostage as much as the avergae boxing fan. Roach wants to see the boring Klits out of the mix too.

    Ya, seems to be a little more than a 3 inch difference.

    "The key to this fight for Haye is to take Wladimir’s confidence away, and do it early," he said. "Take him out of his comfort zone."

    Right. And do you think that Manny & Wlad are not ALSO aware of this fact, and have planned their strategy specifically for it? It's not exactly their first time to the dance.

    pretty low of roach to bring **** like that up considering it wud have been around the time when wlad was indeed not confident after some bad loses.but yet again roach eaves out the fact wlad has came back from that and looks stronger than ever...gd trainer without a doubt but a tit of a man
