Ok the big debate on these two guys is if Haye will simply be walked through by Wlad's size, strength and reach. Obviously Wlad has those advantages. But P4P, who would you pick? I feel Wlad is probably the better P4P fighter, but not by a lot.
I have alot of respect for Wlad for the for he does for charity etc, but this guy is seriously bad for the fight games main division. I hope Haye butchers him
If you take him down to 200lbs and 6'3" Haye would starch him. Hell the only reason he beats Haye now is his massive size advantage.
I think you guys are underrating Wlad quite a bit here. Sure, he can fight like a gutless coward, but when he wants to he can turn on his (excellent) assault machine. Plus he is highly skilled, its not like Haye is in another league in terms of skills. Or anything for that matter.
Wlads skills are very good but so are Zab Judah's. Just because you have the skills does not mean that you can always implement them if you are not mentally 100%. Haye can use his skills to their true potential because he is mentally foucused therefore: p4p: Haye > Wlad
Just watched this guy Haye...he doesnt fight tall at all like he supposed to, somebody like Peter will knock him out into next week.... There shouldnt be any P4P talk with this guy
Wlad is the best heavy weight currently active, in all departments. Wlad is also an excellent boxer but due to his physical advantages and dodgy chin he knows he can play it safe. Haye on the other hand may turn out to be a step above in certain area's but I do not think he can play it safe at heavy. That is why if these two ever meet I would have to pick Wlad to win and prob by stoppage. I would love Haye to beat him but he has a lot to prove before claims of him being the superior guy at the weight come true.
P4P Klitschko wins hands down. Remeber Klitschko won a gold medal at the olympics! Haye although a good amateur didnt fulfill his potential. I think the minute Haye gets tagged by Klitschko (if they ever fight) he will now he is being hit by a BIG powerful man, pretty much a role reversal of Haye at Cruiserweight. Plus if they ever fight i would like to know what would be going through Hayes mind at the weigh in staredown?
