    The fight was ****, but I put all of the blame on Haye. Wlad did EXACTLY THE SAME **** he's been doing for years now. Jab, jab, right hand Ad infinitum. Haye was the one talking all that **** about how boring Wlad is and about how exciting he was, about how he was going to change the world and ****. Haye's a ***** made ******.

    True, he didn't really land anything big on Haye, in fact Haye landed the bigger punches.

    That's what happens when the other guy comes in not to lose rather than to win. Haye's entire game plan was to run away and land a big shot, which he hoped would put Wlad on his ass. This is exactly what Ibragimov did in that stinker at MSG (I paid $200 to see that... ugh). It takes two to make an exciting fight. Yes, Wlad could have pushed more and should have gotten Haye out of there, especially in the later rounds when Haye's speed and reflexes noticeably diminished. But Haye should get most of the blame for this fiasco. He talked a big game but showed absolutely nothing except for his ability to run.

    Since the Klitschko's don't want to hurt each other, they should at least stage a unification fight where they can only use their jabs. The fight wouldn't be much different from the norm anyway. Then we'd finally have someone with all the belts.

    Grow up. We all know how Wlad fights. The only thing you can pin on him is that he wasn't throwing enough straight rights yesterday. He was well ahead on points and was happy to see it out as long as Haye didn't give him an opening.

    Sure, I wanted to see the KO as well, but you can't blame the guy for taking the points when they were being offered to him on a silver plate. He could have been more aggressive but didn't really have to be because the guy fighting him had a game plan based on landing one big punch. That's it.

    In a shocking turn of events, the HW division still blows.

    We have Haye who talked himself in to a 15-20m (or whatever, it doesn't matter) payday, against Klitschko.

    **** you, Haye for conning all of us in to believing you actually gave a damn. Don't try to say it was because of some phantom toe injury you told nobody about; you boxed like a ****ing scared ***** who was only there to collect a payday. **** you.

    Go slip in to the nether of other relative unknowns who tried to tickle our ****ing fancy with a huge mouth and zero skill; telling us the next Rocky was at our fingertips.

    But, alas, we are left with a boisterous fighter who has zero ****ing game, spewing nothing but hyperbole en route to a humiliating defeat and he should be ****ing ashamed of himself.

    I'm not disappointed in Haye, he did what I expected him to do, try to lunge and land a big punch, I just thought he would do more of it. I'm disappointed in Wlad because he was scared to stay in the pocket and unload on him, instead running away.

    Jab didn't land many punches solidly, if he did haye's face wouldn't look better than Wlads. Neither fighter went to the body because they have glass jaws and were scared of getting KO'd with a counter. Neither fight wanted to be great and TRY to impose their will, because they both were ****ing cowards.

    THat is what is disappointing.

    Haye was good defensively, but I believe that's because Haye cant be defensively responsible AND effective offensively, he has to substitute one for the other. Wlad aided Haye in that sense to, as once Haye got more accustomed to his rhythm, the punches he was throwing, he was able to avoid them easier, which I believe was made possible because Wlad allowed Haye to settle into the fight due to his cautiousness.

    Wlad could of ended things quickly if he wasn't so cautious imo. People forget, Wlads biggest weakness is also Haye's.

    How many times did Wlad cut the ring down, get his feet into position, and not pull the trigger? I believe one of the reasons Wlad didn't do that, is because not only is Wlad fearful of catching a counter left if he throws the right, but he's also scared to put his jab out there properly, so pokes and prods with it to feel whether its 100% gonna land.
