if you think Roach knows anything about boxing then you clearly dont know **** about boxing. Klitschko are ATG's, and Vitali beat Lewis.
Holy ****. Now the secret is out. Haye just has to land on Wlad and put pressure on him and then he'll simply break down by himself. Why hasn't anyone else figured this out over the last couple years? :think I remember Wlad - Brewster II fight when Brewster's corner was screaming at the top of their lungs "Just get close Lamont, put pressure on him then he'll fall apart like a house of cards"
indeed.and didnt roach already say wlad would win anyway why the change of heart..wudnt be to hype up the so called biggest heavyweight fight in years wud it>???
that difference is very close to tyson/lewis. david haye is not mike tyson and tyson also had one of the best chins in the game even after the holy/douglass fights. haye has to get wlad in trouble early. i keep looking back to the second bryd fight and how wk destroyed him. granted, haye has more power than byrd but byrd had way better defense/chin/angles and had previously fought a plethora of name hw's. kudos to the media for saying that roach is picking haye. the line might move with that for those of us that are backing wk. after all, our very own esb idiot Bailey proclaims to have moved the dzindurik/sm line when he told everyone here he was backing dzin only to bet(large,or so he says) on sm because he has the ability to move a line.
Roach 2-faced moron.. also said Wlad will beat him 2 months ago... also said that When he trained Wlad, that Wlad hit harder than Tyson... atsch
Here's what Roach said before the Hopkins - Pavlik fight: http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=16806&more=1 "I'm a little bit worried about that fight," Roach admitted. "Bernard is my friend. I asked him to retire after the last fight (a points loss to Joe Calzaghe). I saw some things I didn't like and I told him that. Four times in that fight he walked to the wrong corner after the end of the round. One time they showed it on T.V and made a joke about him looking for the ring card girls, but it happened four times. Why do you go to the wrong corner four times? Something's not right because Calzaghe hadn't buzzed him. Calzaghe couldn't hurt Bernard but Kelly is a big puncher. He's a different cat. He's a young, strong, hungry guy. Timing-wise this is not right for Hopkins." Haye is vastly overrated. His fights are pretty boring - anybody think the Barrett, Valuev, Harrison fights were exciting???? His power is overrated - he TKOs guys who have been knocked out worse by others. And he has NO resume at all. Haye will disappoint his fans.
:yep I can see it in front of me: Wlad and Manny in front of the computure, and Wlad goes: "Bloody hell. They are on to me." July 2th the party will be over for Haye and Adam "We have a secret strategy" Booth.
FFS, Roach trained Wlad for a couple short fights back when Wlad was at the worst point (mentally) and literally in his career after losing to Corrie Sanders. He's not even the same man, let alone the same boxer.
hayes ran like a ***** vs valuev...and he will do that against wlad too...this aint a 40 year old ruiz, this aint a 40 year old diaster in harrison...this aint an ancient monte barrett...this is a prime, in shape, legitimate heavyweight with about 17,18 world title fights....haye is smoke and mirrors...thank god his delusions are almost over...and his idiot fans who think hes some kind of beast...im sure haye and his legion of rats are working on what excuses will pacify them so they can at least show their faces in public or on the boards
