    If Haye knocks out Wladamir between rounds 1 and 6, what will this mean for Wladamirs legacy?

    At the moment, his is a good heavyweight who could have mixed it when Marciano, Tyson, Lewis were in their prime. At the moment he can't find a top heavyweight who can cement his legacy

    If Haye knocks him out early, will he forever be known as an over hyped heavyweight who fought nobody, but when he did he couldn't cut it?

    Thoughts?

    Nah i dont think he would be overated he has fought a good few opponents and alot of top 10 ranked fighters, (baring in mind some have been bums) i just think Haye will cause Wlad problems and it will be a tough fight for Wlad.

    Everyone apart from Klitschko fans realizes that Wlad has only looked good because he has been fighting small fat out of shape unskilled fighters. Lots of "Wlad vs Prime Tyson" and "Wlad vs Prime Frazier" threads get bumped and laughed at.

    Klitschko fans claim Wlad was drugged or Haye just got lucky etc.

    I don't think so. He's already known as a skilled, very big, very powerful fighter with a sub-par chin (for an elite fighter, that is). That would only be reaffirmed as the common perception.

    That's what I think. I think himself and his brother have been very fortunate to be born in an era where competition in the heavyweight era has been poor at best

    He not only needs to win it, he needs to be impressive in winning it, a slow fight with lots of holding and a safe points win should hurt his legacy more than if he went out with guns blazing and got caught and stopped. I want to see some action, this guy really has all the tools if he will just use them, if he puts it all together then Haye is in big trouble, I'm just not positive he will be anything but cautious, but I'm sure hoping he opens up his offense.

    If Wlad loses it only shows how overrated this guy is. A career fighting has beens but stop mention 180 pound fighters like Marciano you douche because their is no 180 pound fighter who ever lived who could beat Wlad

    IF, and it's a big IF...Haye knocks out Wlad, I don't believe Wlad will suddenly be known as overhyped.

    However, what would knock Wlad's legacy, would be if Wlad were to be knocked out by Haye, and then Vitali cleans up the mess again by defeating Haye.
