I read a lot of stuff on this forum about that fight and what a crock of **** it is. I just re-watched the fight. Interesting few observations... George Foreman had the fight even. British TV had Klitschko 2 rounds up. Haye and Klitschko both landed fairly big shots and neither went down. Why do I consistently read it as though Klitschko slapped Haye all over the ring? That did not happen at all, it was a good competitive fight. Summary of the fight for me is what Manny Steward always said... "A good big man will always beat a good little man" - that's all that happened. Manny was on British TV before Haye/Chisora and he said Wlad had said Haye would knock Chisora out, as he was simply too fast...Wlad has more respect for Haye as a boxer than he lets on. Manny also used the perfect game plan. When Haye throws his big right hand, he puts his whole bodyweight into it, thus sometimes allowing himself to go off balance, and they exploited that to the maximum. Idiots need not reply, just people with a brain.
The rounds were close, the scorecards should have been anything but. Volo edged nearly every round in a fight very, very low in clean connects. And the low level of connects is the only reason why they were close rounds. The fight was interesting. I didn't think it was nearly as poor as the majority did. I thought Haye tried far more than he is given credit for and simply was nullified by someone who had a good game plan to disrupt what he does and force him to try to do what he doesn't. That was my take.
Highlated stuff is complete lies. The British commentators had to lie! to their audience to make the fight more interesting.
Wlad clearly, and EASILY dominated that fight. I am convinced that anyone who believes otherwise smokes crack.
both ridiculous scorecards by harold and dan. rafael is a known klit-hugger. wlad won but it was a close fight
