    Wouldn't that be a surprise? Wlad doesn't win quickly over decent opposition. I'll say Wlad KO in 10 or 11

    Unless Haye proves to be a disappointment or his power/speed don't carry well. Chris Byrd in the second fight lasted until the 7th. It's just Wlad's way.

    I don't entirely agree with Lennox's oppinion that he took out a much better version of Rahman much quicker. That might be the literal truth, but if Wlad went all out he could have taken Rahman out earlier. It's just not his style.

    I usually agree with you but I think reality is more complex. For example, if Wlad possesses real confidence as you describe it, he still had to rebuild it after the losses he suffered. And we can't read much into Haye's mental fortitude just based on the public statements he made.

    Personally I think that Haye pumped up the bravado for the fans, and now that he's into serious training, he's regarding Wlad as a very serious test - so this outlook is showing in his words in the training camp interviews. I don't think he's come full circle, though. He's giving Wlad credit for being a big strong guy with a long-reach jab, but he's not exactly crediting Wlad's overall talent level. It leaves the window open for a "I lost to a bigger guy" excuse if he wants to make one.

    Right. Its pretty easy to see that Haye is now more realistic about what his chances in this are....... So now that he's got the fight sealed and done, the money is his, he's getting a grip on reality, and putting the shallow bravado aside, seeing as how he knows he may well get his head taken off. LOL Gotta prepare for that likely scenario.

    Wlad by KO..........mid rounds.

    Well of course he knows that his head may be take off. He is fightig for the championship. He has a shot at winning. He will have to fight a near perfect fight and get out of his comfort zone Or get lucky with a lucky punch The quickess of feet by both fighters will be the key

    Do you really think that Haye would have gotten up from the lefts that Wlad took against Sanders or the clubbing right to the back of the head from Peters. I'm not saying that Barrett hurt Haye because he obviously didn't, but Haye has been stopped at lower weights. We've never seen him hit flush by a true HW shot. We're not going to see what happens until June 20th and I have a suspiscion of what will transpire. Wlad's chin is under-rated and his haters love to exagerate how weak it is.

    I dont buy into that lack of confidence thing some of you guys are talking about. He knows whats ahead of him, its good that hes not underestimating him. I believe in the guy, and i believe he's gonna shock some people come fight night

    Whats the deal with a lot of fans jumping ship? :patsch

    Don't worry David Haye knows what he is doing. Haye is going to bring a very aggressive offensive style ala, Tyson, Brewster, Tua, Mercer, Etc. Rather than sit back and get outboxed.

    Adam Booth and David Haye both like the mind games.
    This is the first of many now training has begun.

    I've been watching Haye's most recent fights. IMO, Haye doens't have the stamina or discipline to beat wlad. Wlad is too polished, smart and experienced for this guy. Different class. That's all im gonna say about it til the fight is over.

    Klit haters thinking one shot to Wlad's chin is gonna end it is beyond ludacris. That would be suicide for Haye. It also proves these people are goofballs.

    Haye knocks Wlad out before round 6.

    That's all I'm saying until the fight is over.
