I must say 1st and foremost what a nice guy wlad is,ive just seen him on british tv and he comes across as charming and a good all around guy.But what worried me with wlad was when asked a question about fighting..he said he was'nt a "natural" fighter and yet said his brother was!!....i feel this sort of attitude doesn't bode well for wlad,against the monster punching davey haye,i kinda got the feeling wlad wasn't a "natural" fighter when i saw him crawling about on all fours against that part time semi pro golfer from sth africa,"who's name has passed me by"...anyway i fear for wlads health and safety...and hayes power coupled with his amazing speed for a heavy...and never say die attitude will spell doom for wlad.....I just hope its quick,as i think wlad is a nice guy,just not really put out for fighting....Good luck wlad...hopefully haye wont carry him for to long,and put wlad out with what is no-doubt the hardest right cross in boxing.peace!:good
wlad fights way different since that time and has been dominant ever since, haye handling it like that is a ideal situation for haye fans.
Its a double edged sword, it probably works for him in one sense, as his discipline is what makes the fight he is, he fights without passion and maintains his advantages, irrespective of whether the fight is a spectacle, however it probably works against him when someone can negate his advantages in physical dimensions, his ability to dictate from range, where by he has to throw down.
I couldn't give a f**k if he is the nicest guy in the world I thank Haye for the way he has acted, he has got people talking about this fight and loads of people can't wait for them to collide If he had acted nice and considerate like Wlad, no-one would have cared about this fight And Mike Tyson was the baddest man on the planet, but millions loved him. If Klitchko was fighting in my back yard, I'd close the curtains
IMO Vlad is trying to be more polite. Not hyping himself too up and also not forgetting to credit Vitali.
