    Yes he is! There has never been a hw who accomplished so much by doing so little. That is what a fraud is! That is what Haye is.

    Haye is a counter punch who uses everything he can to goad his oppentents to come at him.

    Wladimir is a safety first boxer.

    Stylewise you were expecting both guys to change what they have done all their careers to get them that success.

    If Wladimir had the chin Haye suspected, Haye would have koed Wladimir. Wladimir chin was better and Haye got through less due to Stewarts tactics.

    Boxingwise it was a good fight. As a fight it stunk.

    He is basically one of the worst heavy weight champs I have ever seen.

    Yes. He is way up there in terms of over-hyped heavyweight fighters.

    Completely agree...

    I should say that the most dissapointing thing about yesterday was that Haye was capable of more. His power and tencacity and the respect that Wlad showed him made me believe he could done more but taken more steps to turn it around. Whether or not he had enough to win is a different story but there is an honor in going out on you shield.
