Haye v Wladimir is one fight that could regenerate interest in heavyweight boxing. Good to see Haye so keen, he seems like he means business. Off memory, I can't think of one heavyweight title fight since Lewis v Vitali that was exciting, the only exception the 1 minute demolition of Golota by Lamon Brewster.
Your spot on ips speed will be the key & haye has the edge here. Both can be regarded as chinny so 1st in might just do it. I think Haye also has the edge in natural ring generalship, better on his feet & seems to have better one punch power. Will be agood fight whilst in lasts but it certainly won't go the distance. Haye KO 9.
There's always negotiation invloved in setting up fights, particularly big ones, but the Klitschko camp don't want much, do they???????? As long as Haye can make it a bit more interesting than the Vlad vs Tony Thompson bout! Thompson being a lefty and 'hesitant' made it awkward - but what an ordinary spectacle - should have slept in that morning!
It's a long way from falling apart and SHOULD get together, it wouldn't be boxing if there wasn't some kind of spanner in the works!
I think it will be a great fight....Klit will keep Hayne on the outside and get the points win with his long jab.....reach advantage must be 10 cms and height must be 4 to 5 inchs.
Klit knocks out Haye in 5 or less. Haye has punchers chance in that time frame. One Klit jab is harder than anything Haye has been hit with.
Haye needs to get this fight with Wlad signed and sealed asap cause if negotiations fail he could end up fighting Vitali :admin
The thing I like about Haye though Teke, is that he'd be happy to do that. You're right though. I think Wladimir is shitting it to be honest.
Klitschko Vs. Haye will be like Klitschko Vs. Hide in London years ago. Either Vitali or Vlad will knock him out cold.
