    Good post, I agree! :good

    I shoukd have scored him a little lower because I feel the running is overstated.*

    As well as being horribly off balance and wide open after throwing punches, Haye also stood in front of Wlad for sustained periods with his hands down by his waist and his chin poking out and Wlad couldn't or wouldn't punish him for this.

    Wlad was even more cautious than he usually is. The only element of excitement in this fight was watching Haye make him miss again & again & then wobbling him in the 12th.

    Wlad was effective but uninspiring. He deserved to win but shouldnt get credit for the manner in which he did so.

    Both guys chins held up which nobody thought would happen before the fight.

    Yeah standing in front of your opponent with your hands down by your waist and chin sticking out is running now is it. He couldnt hit Haye because of Hayes head movement, nothing to do with running you ******.

    Klit fan boys, they get worse i swear :dead

    adamek gets chased around like a little coward, gets beaten like a red headed step child, mentally quits then his corner throws in the towel and he's happy that its over but adamek is a warrior who deserves respect. :rofl

    Had he have tried to stop him, he may have got knocked the **** out himself! Haye was dangerous with his right hands no doubt about it and Wlad didn't want any part of that. They were both cautious of each other's power, hence the tentative fight. Don't be naive in thinking that Wlad could just throw caution to the wind and go for the KO.

    Haye withdrew from the fight and played it safe, so outside of the times where Haye dared to risk anything, it was a dull fight.

    Moderate. Against a smaller and mediocre opponent he displayed his usual caution and fear of being hit

    Wlad/Haye is similar to Vitali/Johnson, when your opponent ha sno interrest of winning the fight and just get out with the money, its hard to get the KO. Big shame on David Haye for this performence.

    Wlads performence was 7-8 out of 10, not 9 or higher!

    I thought Wlad had an ATG jab, why couldn't be land it? I mean, the guy is stood right there with his hands down!
