    Don't see what Lennox can bring! He was being outboxed when they fought. Lennox fights like Klitschko anyway but is a better closer.

    Haye is talking shot, Vit did not look scared in the RTL interview after Wlads fight on Saturday. If anything Vit had a menacing look as if he was looking forward to beating the crap out of Haye.

    Haye had a chance against Wlad but Vit is far beter than Wlad and will beat Haye easily.

    Agreed. I think Vit is very menacing. His stare downs are cold. I think he is the angry brother. Look how angry he got when Sanders beat Wlad and was threatening Sanders. Vitali looks quite angry sometimes. To be honest, with Haye I feel he is struggling to stay professional. In the RTL interview he hit Haye playfully but I think it was masked cos he was serious.

    Firstly, heres hoping Haye can do it. Although I think he has bitten off more than he can chew. Personally, having seen Wlads last 3 fights, I would have made that a 60-40 fight. Why he's going after Vitali, who he can't KO, unless it goes late, which would include Haye not getting KO'd in the meantime, is beyond me.

    Having said that, their has been some strange comments in this thread.

    One was regarding Vitali chasing Haye down. Vitali hadn't fought for 4 years before coming up against an immobile fat midget. He didn't need to chase him, or exchange punches to land the one he wanted to. What proof do we have that he can cope with movement? (and I mean Vitali 2009, not Vitali 2002)

    Flint, if you think Haye will **** himself you are even more deluded than I thought.

    Prime Lennox would have stopped Vitali quicker than he actually did.

    Indeed, Peter was ABYSMAL. Truly awful. Just stood there, then plodded slowly into range time and again, and took a pounding.

    There's no stylistic comparison with Haye IMO, who is athletic and explosive.

    I definitely think there are slight question marks about whether Vitali is still the same fighter. Peter was that bad I can't take that fight as conclusive proof.

    Haye is young, hungry and has been a dedicated fighter for the last 5 years, Vitali hasn't.

    Cant see Vitali ditching the WBC title to fight Haye asap.

    Haye will need to wait until after Vitali meets Gomez.

    If Haye was to some how beat Vitali, I wonder how that would affect Wlads mentality.

    Haye's going after a big pay-day and striking while the iron's hot. Fair play to him for accepting the harder of the 2 brothers but he's only got a slim chance of outpointing Vitali or to hope that Vitali's gets cut bad or gets injured. He's got more chance of becoming the King of England than he has actually knocking Vitali out. Unless you can kick him in the head Vitali's not going down from anything he might face from Haye.

    I hope he does it and it will be a great night but he's got virtually no chance, IMO.

    Too much too soon - and Vitali is far to big for him. he won't put him down, wlad would have been better with his dodgy chin
