i dont think david haye will be able to take peters punch. that being said, i think haye outboxes peter for most of the fight. i just think peter will atleast land one good one, and thatll most likely be the end.
I Imagine Fat Peter would talk about what great shape he is in and how he was chopping down trees working out for 6 hrs a day etc Come fight night he shows up weighing 270+ lbs and gets KTFO. Seriously this dude is to lazy to do anything.
But Peter will have to take Haye's punches first which I doubt he'll be able to do, cause I see Haye easily avoiding Peter all night long.
Originally I thought Have vs Peter would be a good fight and one that would help Haye prepare for the brothers. The more I think about it however I see it differently. I think Haye's just to fast for Peter and is a far better boxer too. I think Haye would KO or TKO Peter late in the fight. I'd like to see Haye take on Dimitrenko, Povetkin, or Arreola next. In fact I'd like to see the Hayemaker take on two rising heavyweights before fighting either Klitschko. I think he beats all three of these guys too.
meh, i dont think hed have too much of a problem w/ that. he took vitalis punches all night long till he quit, olegs, wlads, mcclines. i doubt a blown up cruiser will be koing him anytime soon. if haye can stay away from peter the whole fight...wide ud. he gets hit with one decent shot...ko.
Wereas i would favour Haye to out-box the snail-slow and predictable Peter and make him look even more amatuerish than Vitali did you can't rule out Peter landing one big shot on Haye's chin. Im not to bothered about Haye's supposed "glass jaw" at heavyweight; if Peter lands flush Haye is going down. It's more Haye's concentration. David and Adam Booth are very meticulous in their preperation and usually always devise a sound game plan for beating Haye's upcoming opponent. When David sticks to this plan things go well. It's when he goes away from this plan that things can go a bit tits up. If Haye keeps his concentration he could quite easily out box Peter without getting hit flush once however Peter is tough and this fight would probably go into the later rounds or even the full distance so David would have to be fully focused, stick to a game plan of using his speed and not open up to much and go gung-ho for the entire fight. If Haye uses his speed on the outside to counter Peter and slowly breaks him down he will win. If he opens up more and starts taking risks to get the crowd pleasing KO he could get KO'ed himself.
I have a feeling that we will see Peter come into fights heavier and heavier after the Vitali fight. I don't think his motivation will be there.
