    Just reading the predictions from pros in the guardian and many of them say haye will brutalize chis because he is a plodder who comes forward with his chin in the air throwing slow looping shots with little power

    Do you agree with this consensus?

    No. By the standards of the rest of the heavyweight division he's pretty quick, with some good head movement too.

    Really? Chisoras feet are pittiful. His head only moves when he is stood still, whenever he moves his feet he stops moving his head. He doesn't own a straight punch to speak of and lacks power in those wild looping hooks. Chisora is the definition of a plodder

    Haye needs to KO him, Just so he can have one over Vitali.

    I have a feeling Chavora will be probably fitter/thinner than ever, he knows he will have to be more mobile against the powerful fast hands of Haye. There could be a shock but I can't get past the fact that Chisora is Taylor made for Haye.

    I think Chisora is going to need a bus to knock him out. Haye wont come close to it.

    In this fight, Chisora will be made to look the ultimate plodder.

    If by plodder you mean chubby man who walks forward in straight lines and windmills at his opponents then yes!

    Chisora is a plodder.

    And I wouldn't be surprised if he beats Haye with his plodding.

    Thats a Myth, he's been BADLY hurt several times before, and anyone can get knocked out when they block punches with their chin like he does.

    this has disaster written all over it for Chisora

    He's already dropped him once, he obviously has the power to hurt Chis, If he catches him off guard in the ring or lands a nice counter he'll no doubt drop him in the ring aswell.
    I also believe Vitali would have stopped him aswell had he had the use of both arms in their fight.

    :think

    I suppose we do have to consider the possibility that Haye will throw some punches.

    Haye is 6(5)-1 in world title fights, i think it's pretty obvious he throws punches dont you :patsch

    Chisora is 0-1 btw, and 1(0)-3 in his last 4
