    Yes, he managed to stop wlad.

    Yes he managed to knock Vitali down, have him on wet noodles and back peddling like joe glass his brother. If his stamina was better and he actually bothered to train, who knows he probably would have stopped Vitali too.

    But was his power overrated? Yes he had a bit pop, but other than Michael sportt who did he KO? He couldn't even KO famous egg chin Rahman.....

    I think because of his win over wlad, and how he nearly had Vitali out of there, klit fans tend to overate not only his ability, but his power.

    Ha! This guy is hysterical. He's the worst blogger on the forum, only comes to make up **** and generally troll against Vitali.

    He was the only guy to genuinely rock Vitali.

    A lot of guys that fought him rank him as the hardest puncher they fought. Rahman does. Sprott said his power was super-natural when asked to compare it to Joshuas power, and that Sanders was in a different class.

    A fast arkward southpaw with a good punching technique (his golf swing definately helped) will always be in a position to deliver big shots.

    Who? Haye is a massive hoitter at his natural weight. At heavy he has good power but he's never going to hit as hard as true heavyweight punchers.

    Fighters tend to big up the men they have victories over. There's no denying Lewis was a harder hitter than sanders

    Also 99% would agree Tua and wlad were harder hitters than sanders. Probably big O too

    Haye has his limitations, but power is not one. World class power that carried
