    thats the big question for me, what if Haye is so comfortable after the first half of fight, then gets whispers that he maybe in for some homecooking, decides to go all out for the KO and then walks into something with those poor whiskers.

    Haye will knock Valuev out. He will be up against the ropes and Haye will connect an uppercut that causes, Valuev to stagger back. This is where the only problem in the fight stems from. WHERE WILL VALUEV LAND!?

    I had this vision before of Valuev hugging and leaning that weight on Haye to take his legs late in a scrappy boring arse fight where Valuev holds a lot, pops out the occassion jab and frustrates Haye.

    but thats before i came to my sense though.

    if i'm reading that right, then i agree.

    i think if haye goes and trys to stop valuev, he will run out of steam...and he wont knock out that big lump...

    if he circles him..jabs and crosses...win the rounds and the jobs a good 'un.

    In answer to my own question however the only time I've seen Haye drain the gas tank is when he threw nothing but homeruns at one jacked up speed for 5 rounds non stop. I just can't see how an oversized slug will allow for Haye to even try this bull rush. I see comfortable counters and staying loosie goosie throughout. Haye will even start to bounce on the toes and have fun in there and we may even see some Ali shuffles and Leonard bolos. :lol:

    Haye will have boxed 7 rounds in 24 months by the time the fight takes place if i remember right

    if Valuev leans all over him from the opening bell and Haye cant keep away maybe he will tire

    I wouldnt bet on it but it could happen

    Ill second that ,maybe even KO for Haye,Im not sure I have ever seen Valuev take a heavy punch and I seen many of his fights, there is a reason why hes been protected by Sauerland(plus the sad but true freak show element is good box office) and I think poor punch resistance is it

    Cant believe so many are going for a Haye knock out, I got him by decision.

    I expect Haye to be to fast and explosive for Valuev. I see him dominating and busting up Valuev.He can follow Holyfield's ploy of moving and then unloading but obviously Haye we stand ground bit more and look to hurt Valuev rather then tap tap run. I think the fight will be interesting all way through as Haye can get lazy and also reckless but i see him breaking the big mans resolve and hurting him and winning on lopsided ud or maybe a stoppage late on...10-11 rounds.

    I would go for a Haye by decision but i wouldnt be suprised if Valuev uses his weight and walks Haye down and stops him late.

    Also whilst not a massive concussive puncher Valuev hits hard enough to stop Haye at any point imo.

    I cant see Haye stopping Valuev but if he is on his game he should win on points.

    But i will be rooting for Valuev.
