David Haye vs Ruslan Chagaev...

Haye + Right Hand = Good night southpaw!

That being said Haye's hands down defence isn't how to fight a southpaw so there is danger from that end....but Chagaev isn't a KO puncher so Haye should be fine.

 

If it happens I have to favor Haye

 

has to happen now that wladimir BITCHKO ducked

 

Chagaev is far more technically sound than Haye, has decent power and can take a HW punch, and has a defense. Hayes been put on his ass by Monte Barrett, and old John Ruiz had him falling into the ropes with jabs. Chagaev won't just stand in front of him petrified like Fraudley did.

Haye/Sauerland will go to all lengths to avoid getting in the ring with Chagaev.

 

Chagaev will be cannon fodder for Haye. I have rarely seen a fighter implode and go downhill this fast. I am not sure if this is related to his medical condition or just general laziness.

This won't last 3 rounds and Haye will barely break a sweat. Easy night and low risk though similarly low reward.

 

If Haye ducks Chagaev, and says he's "done with the Klitschkos", and Adamek appears to be tied up with other options into Sept... Who the hell will he fight to close out his final glorious year at H.W. before quitting in Oct???

 

If it isn't then the next availible challengers get a shot, that would be Povetkin or Boystov, both easily as dangerous for Haye.

Therefore your implying that Haye is looking for an easier fight kinda just went flying out of the window didn't it?

Oops.:deal

 

Tell us how you really feel about Haye why don't you. Just because you don't like the man makes no difference to how you should rate him as a boxer.

I don't see Chagaev beating Haye. I see this fight if it happens going a similar way to the Ruiz fight with Haye being too fast and too powerful. Nor would I say Wlad can throw 'better' right hands than Haye. Haye's power is undeniable - Monte barrett who has been hit flush by both of them has said their power is very comparable.

 

Based on Chagaevs last performance I don't think so, he looked as inept as Boystov has looked in any performance.
As for Povetkin you think he views Haye as big of a threat as Klitschkos?Of course not, therefore there's every possibility that fight gets made, a guy who's actually ranked HIGHER than Chagaev.

So in your mind Haye runs from Chagaev possibly setting up a fight with a higher ranked more dangerous opponent

 

It has to be either Chagaev or Povetkin or Haye will be a laughing stock

 

chagaev looked horrible in his last fight and would be crushed by haye

 

How?

Haye has to fight whoever the WBA declare the mandatory challenger, Haye has no say in the matter.
