    who yall got?

    OK, so how much is there really to say about Haye vs. the 7ft hairy lumberjack. Haye studies a similar build in Holyfield actually beating Valuev by 3 rounds and knows the 7 footer has absolutely no answer for a little movement. Haye just steadies himself for the first 3 to 4 rounds by not getting caught with any top of the head, equilibrium shot then it's cruise control from there. Haye has fun in there from 4 on and coasts to a 10 round to 2 boring victory. Not much else I see exciting about this match. Initially I was actually going for Valuev to ruin Haye's get rich quick heavyweight scheme, but then I came to my senses. :D

    or have I really? :think

    as always DON'T BE SHY :good

    I think he`ll fight Ruiz after Valuev all the while shouting out about the Klits who wont come out to fight him.

    Haye decision.

    Although it'd be funny to see Valuev taken out I've not seen him genuinely hurt and I think Haye will be potshotting.

    Haye just needs to circle the ring to take away Valuev's jab, once he loses his jab he's got little. Then he can leap in with his right hand and just pick off Valuev.

    Only way Haye gets in trouble is taking a stupid shot because he has a glass jaw despite Valuev's lack of power. Or he goes all guns blazing and ****s himself.

    Really?

    I'm excited about it.

    1) Haye is actually getting in the ring...

    2) It's a funny fight - David vs Goliath. Should make for a great monicer.

    I know,a years a long time for Haye to be out if he has plans for early retirement.

    Hopefully as the fight nears i'll be more looking fwd to it,dont know what it is....after the WK pull out,just went off him a bit.

    Think Wlad conducted himself like a true champion the last year.

    To be honest I don't have the energy and inclination to get too involved in that old debate. Negotiations all seem to pass me by, same with the transfer circus in football. I don't have a clue what happened or what the terms were, I'm not sure anybody here does, yet many get embroiled in these endless tirades.

    I just want to see the guy fight..thats his job.

    Just didn't like the way he continued to talk smack AFTER the pull out.

    It was tremendous before(building the fight up) but after to me was too much

    -i'll still back him tho

    Haye decision

    He may be boring to watch, but I think Valuev has the boxing skills (yes that's what I said:D) to prevent a knockout, but he's perhaps not active enough to prevent Haye getting a decision. Valuev's chin has always looked OK to me.

    Let's just hope this fight goes ahead and doesn't get cancelled.

    I hear ya about a possible robbery and with DK's involvement and infamous German jacking its a potent combination (although i do feel that get's over played a bit) But those are things we can't legislate for. your right though there remains the possibilty of a robbery of Whitaker/Chavez proportions, maybe Haye will try and take it outta the judges hands and knowing how reckless he is mixed in with that dodgy head, eat some shots and go to sleep, i doubt it though.
