    In all honest I didn't find the fight boring, but i'm a big Haye fan and obviously seeing him in there with someone of Valuevs size and experience made for an enjoyable fight.

    The number is irrelevant in judging, workrate is not one of the marking criteria.

    David outlanded Valuev decisively.

    you are discussing this with the same guy that said Arreola had an 'off night' against Vitali and that Vitali is fighting Johnson to delay a rematch with Arreola. :lol::rofl:patsch

    I think for the avaerage fan they were expecting so much from Haye after listening to his mouth.."I will do this" " I will do that" "Valuev is this" "Valuev is that"...It was a let down, My wifes brother was here...average boxing fan...all he kept saying was "why is Haye running"....I think alot of people were thinking that

    I think given the size matchup, Hayes activity and lack of experience overall, especially as a HW, people should really have taken his statements with a pinch of salt.

    Especially educated boxing fans.

    I can't wait for the rematch...

    Seriously though - why doesn't Valuev fight on the backfoot and use his height in a more traditional way? Has anyone seen him doing this?

    I can understand why you think that, totally.

    I do credit that to his hand injury, that I honestly believe is true. I did notice a nasty contact in the slow-mo replays, and afterwards Haye did seem very reliant on his left hand.

    If you even have to ask "why is he running?" chances are you're incapable of making even simple, objective value judgements. Probably best not to watch a subjective sport like boxing then, really.

    Ray Robinson threw more than 1.300 punches in each round to keep LaMotta at bay. Wtf!

    I think that since their sole job is to count punches that they just might be somewhat accurate. At least more so than say YOU!

    I'm pretty sure Haye had him going with a left.
