    What about Bonnin, Garry Delaney and Valeri Semiskur?

    Possibly but hardly definitive. Fighters tell people which rounds they're going to KO someone all the time. It's hardly fixing a fight.

    No doubt Haye's the favourite but Fury's a live underdog here. A draw doesn't look that bad of a bet even.

    Haye first fought Bonin at HW, before going down to CW again, then back up to HW. Won by dropping Bonin three times in first round IIRC

    i actually think, this is going to come to who can control the range to fire their shots.
    Whatever way i look at it, i think Haye will stick to what he does so well -and proven.
    He will counter-punch fury by looking for fury to jab his way into distance and then haye will follow with quick flurries as he comes into range with quick 1,2's.

    When i analyse how this is going i can;t help in seeing that haye really isn't going to do anything special he is going to take a step back wait for fury to commit with his long arms and then take a quick step inside and bang and get out. The fight will all come down to how Fury fights. Fury will have to get into gt into range against a puncher if he gets into range Haye needs no invitation as Furys defence when offloading isn't great.

    I agree that the longer the fight the more in favor its is in Fury -but only if fury can walk through hayes punches to maul/lean on him and rough him up inside. Thats the question as haye will want to deter fury coming inside by banging him as soon as he thinks coming inside. That leaves fury with a problem -risk being hit to wear haye? or stay outside and get jabbed/punched and let haye nick rounds.

    For haye to do this for 12 rounds its going to take a lot of stamina and weaving and possibly taking shots. Fury i feel needs to be able to change his tactics quickly and make a decision how he can beat haye. If he can take hayes power i see Fury winning if he gets detered and tastes a few big shots then its interesting how much risk Fury will take.
