So who takes it? Haye has horrible stamina. Even in the Ruiz fight it showed. The thing with Hopkins is would he be able to carry all that excess muscle and not slow down?
This content is protected Look at the size difference. Size isn't everything, but Haye also has the speed, power, strength, etc advantage. Too much for Hopkins to overcome at this stage in his career in my opinion.
Honestly I think hopkins is capable of beating haye. The problem is this hopkins gets dropped by pascal haye will knock him out the ring. If hopkins somehow survives the first 5 rounds he would be able to school him. I think haye ko´s him in 2 but still. Thats why haye never mentions vitali.
Haye kills Hopkins. I questioned whether he was faking or not against Calzaghe & Jones but his aging is affecting his durability as his resistance is going down. Pascal has good power but not the kind of power Haye does. If Haye hits Hopkins with the same shots(all he needs is one though) Pascal dropped him with, the fight is over. Haye is notorious for rabbitpunching so that doesn't help Bhop either. Hopkins' best bet is to retire after a Pascal rematch as I doubt he could handle even Bute's power which is pretty good anyways. Haye by murder. Even Hopkins admitted if Haye connects cleanly, "you gon' sleep".
Great photo man. New desktop background. Got to agree with the point here also. Size, speed, strength, power etc. Haye has all the physical benefits in this fight by such a wide margin this fight would be a bigger farce than Haye-Harrison, Marquez-Mayweather or Pacquiao-Clottey.
Haye wins late or on points in a snoozer. I think hopkins could potentially make Haye look a little silly for a round or two-that's a maybe though. I think once Hop felt the weight of Hayes punches he'd become very very negative, Haye has a fairly low output anyway and not the best stamina, plus he's reluctant to throw a lot when the other guy feints . I don't see Hopkins getting blown away early due to his experience and guile.
I would seriously worry for Bernard's health. Only a sick ******* who absolutely loathes ole man river would want this fight to happen.
