Damn do I want to see this fight ? Hell yeah !! :scaredas::scaredas::scaredas: It would be a huge event in London IMO !
Hayes power carries even if he jumps in from the outside! i think he will be able to catch vitali! but vitali wont go down so easy! Yes styles make fights! vitali has slower feet than wladimir so haye wil be able to pace himself better and get set to get his punches off! wladimir didnt let haye get set all night long! he kept haye on the move to minimize hayes offence!
He will have a smaller! window of opportunity to land that punch to, cause Vitali wouldn't allow him to exist in the fight longer than he should.
What is this 'catch Vitali' supposed to mean? Knock him out? Not gonna happen. Other that that Vitali will handily outwork and out point punch-wise inactive Haye in the best case scenario for David.
The one who comes into the fight hoping for a single stroke of luck comes out a loser 90% of the time. With Vitali it's closer to 95% (5% reserved for an injury)
When have you seen Vitali caught with that type of punch? Vitali's ability to sway back away from punches with his hands down is an asset believe it or not, as he operates from so far out, due to his reach, that he can avoid those types big swings. Only way to clock Vitali like that, is if his stops feinting, allowing you to find the most opportune moment to mount that kind of attack(Gurov), or if you go to the body first, then come upstairs, and even then its not guaranteed to land. Haye wont get set to throw his punches because of the rhythm Vitali fights in. Vitali fights in an awkward rhythm that is hard to counter cause you cant get his timing down, and your reluctant to lead off yourself because of that rhythm, as he has have the ability to sway back and counter you.
Attitude makes fights before styles do, and Haye just doesn't have Adamek's heart, if he did, Vitali would beat him to a pulp as the more you engage the more the Klitschkos beat you up. David is simply a boring fighter and I have nothing against him to wish him getting beaten up, so Vitali should move on. Vitali vs. Valuev, that'd be better because Niko likes to be busy behind the jab and doesn't jog out of action, bring on the big boys and leave Haye for his domestic PPVs.
:good Vitali is all wrong for Haye and I don't like the fact that Haye will get another shot at the title befor he fights one of the other top contenders.
very good post! i know its hard to catch vitali cause hes got good reflex and great upper body movement and also superb timing in his punches! Which will make it hard for haye to come in without getting hit with something! but i do feel haye could have some sucsess with his fast jab which is underated cause he doesnt use it much! and if he is able to land that jab he could set up the big one! haye would need more courage though to fight the kind of fight to beat vitali!
Haye had his chance against a Klit and flopped around on the floor until he decided to fight the 12th. Get back in line and win some fights.
