    Haha! Dude Corrie Sanders and Sam Peter hit Wladimir flush so it's not like it will be a whole new world and shock to Wladimir IF ...big IF it happens. Now Wladimir cracking Hayes skull ...that will be a whole new experience for Haye. So if anyone is gonna be shocked it's going to be Haye because if he thinks Thompson, Mock, or Mormeck hit him hard ...just wait until he taste a Wladimir right hand or left hook. :dead:!:

    Haye doesn't have very good speed at all. He's always transparently trying to make himself out to be Muhammad Ali 2.0 but it's just a joke.

    I haven't seen any of his heavyweight fights and thought to myself - "Wow, look at that blinding handspeed!" I beet no one else has either. And the thing is it starts off fairly fast but then rapidly tails off so by the midrounds he often looks downright sluggish. He tries to make every punch a knockout punch and tires himself out rapidly.

    The only opponent I think who didn't taste leather from Wlad was Sanders.

    So unless Haye goes for an early and risky all-out ambush attack he *WILL* take flush shots down the line, no matter what.

    It really just wasn't speed with Bird. It was uncanny evasive skills. He had like incredible peripheral vision. Sweet Pea comes to mind and Dirrel seemed to have (or had)some of that. And then Bird met Ibeabuchi (sp).

    I've only seen Haye fight once but they seem like two totally different type fighters. The guy, I think Maceranelli or something, seemed really bad though and there didn't seem to be any need for Haye to get into evade mode.

    Haye is fast as ****, i'm not saying he'l beat or dominate Wlad but he is definetly the fastest opponent he's faced. I reckon Klitschko will knock him out, the HW division is utter shite

    I've seen Chambers train in person and lemme say...if there's one thing Chambers IS, it's ****ing fast. Fastest hands I've seen on a HW, at least in person.

    Eddy is deceptively fast and throws in combination very well, Byrd was very fast as well had no zip and arm punched. Haye may be quicker. Will he be able to use that speed to get inside Wlados jab? we shall see.

    The speed difference between Haye and Chambers is minimal, but Chambers has definitely fought the much better competition. Haye's getting this huge title shot without having fought anyone decent at HW yet.
