    Yeah I'll give him credit for dismantling Ruiz. But people need to keep some perspective. Haye just destroyed someone who went life and death (and prob. lost ) with a shot Golota 6 years ago and was 4-4 in his last 8 fights. In other words, Haye showed his skills against someone who should not be considered a contender in the first place. We'll see if he's able to do thesame against stiffer comp.

    I do give Haye credit, and I respect him as a fighter. Realistically Ruiz was in fact a mandatory. Against Adamek I think it would be a really close fight, although I will obviously be rooting for Adamek all the way, and (truthfully) believe he (Adamek) would win this fight. But I will admit I think it would be a very tough, and close fight for him. I am not dellusional.

    He (Haye) is strong, he is fast, he has age on his side, and he knows how to talk up a fight, but he also knows how to turn people away from him with all his yapping, although it seems lately he has been doing less of this. Hopefully a trend that will continue.

    This fight without a doubt, would be much more exciting then any Klitschko fight against anybody at the moment, unless the Klitschkos fought eachother.

    Agreed on all accounts but Haye is still a defensively flawed fighter who thinks he can get away with just some head movement. Even tonight he got caught a few times by Ruiz because he got lazy by not moving his head in a few rounds... he keeps his hands haphazardly low thinking he's RJJ or something. Also he tend to stay in close range hoping to set up traps. Offensively Ruiz is a dumb one dimensional fighter who just comes forward and falls for all those traps.I fear for Haye's chin, should a timed Adamek counter come its way.

    Haye is not perfect, either. He has a wide open style and likes to keep his hands down, something that will get him into trouble against Adamek considering his speed, and timing, as you mention. Adamek is no slouch as far as power goes, either.

    I just hope the Arreola fight goes as I think it will.

    He only yaps when he believes it will work. That is how you know its not really the real him unlike say James Toney who does it regardless, its a tactic, he admits that himself. He didn't do it at all for Ruiz because he said he believes its a waste of time to try to wind up Ruiz because he's seen it all before. It's easy to see why he'd do that to a Klitschko, Wlad specifically, because he's shown a weak psyche in the past.

    I don't think he'd bother talking too much trash about Adamek if it was ever to happen because Adamek doesn't let that annoy him either.

    Anyway, I think Haye would win. I believe he has a clear styles advantage in the fight. Adamek is a good fighter but he stands very tall, he's not too difficult to find, I think he'd just take too many big punches trying to get of his own. Haye is very relaxed, he moves well, he ducks and dives, I think he'd just be a little too varied and unpredictable compared to Adamek who you know is basically coming with a very traditional style. Haye is going to time that.

    Haye does keep his hands down but that depends on who he's fighting, if you see when he fought fragomeni and a few other guys at cruiser his hand was stuck to his face, even in his heavyweight debut against tomasz bonin he kept his hand up.

    i like how honest haye and his team were about looking bad, they said haye got hit way too much and he looked terrible.

    I'm an Adamek Fan all the way (100% polish), but I'd see David Haye winning a decision in that fight. The reason being is because Haye would fight almost exactly the same as he did just now vs Ruiz, which is a style Adamek would have trouble with. Slippery defense combined with punishing combos when you don't expect them. But Adamek knows how to keep good pressure and has an amazing chin. I think the only way Tomasz can win is by a knockout.

    After Grant fight its possible to make Haye-Adamek, but I'd prefer watch Haye-Vlad, Adamek-Vitali matchups at first. Thougts ?

    :lol:

    I'll believe it when it happens. I suspect Haye will make his next defense against Chageav...5 years from now tops. Adamek will probably cash out against either Vitali or Wlad next year.
