The Purritty fight. Get's put down by a journeyman from a short right uppercut and falls over in the corner. He faces his career being shattered and having to rebuild all over again, and what did he do, he didn't make any attempt to continue. Contrast that to Haye-Thompson. Same situation, got put down, faced having to rebuild his career with it being shattered. And what happened? Haye got up and fought on. He was exhausted and he fought his heart out, he took right hand after right hand after right hand and stayed on his feet. He was hurt, trapped in the corner but on his fight when the fight was stopped after the towel was thrown in, and was still punching back. Champions dig deep and find that extra something to win fights. Haye got put down by Mormeck, what happened? He got up, dug deep, come forward and knocked Mormeck the **** out. Wlad got put down by Lamon Brewster, yes he was exhausted, yes he got up but he stood there defeated, and then took punches and tried to run looking for any excuse for the ref to stop the fight and get out of the action.
(Fingers in ears) NOT LISTENING! NOT LISTENING! WLAD IS GONNA STAND IN FRONT OF HAYE WITH HIS HANDS AT HIS WAIST AND GET 1-2 'ED! HAYE IS UNSTOPPABLE!!!
It doesn't matter. That shows that Haye has the capability to do it. It's shows that he's a technically sound guy, it shows that if Wlad allows him to time the jab just what might happen.
Wlads jab is like nothing Haye has ever had to deal with... but you are right, if he can time his jab it will open up a window to victory... I would like Haye to win, but I don't think he will.
Great find TV, and while I was only able to watch the top and bottom clip, if those fights are in chronological order regarding their history, Haye has appeared to have lost form as he is dropping his right hand too low, which is unnecessary and he is often standing too straight up with his opponent coming in, and his hand still low. This is a potential catastrophe because while no doubt Haye is faster and a more explosive puncher than both Klitschko's, he cannot underestimate their intelligence. He's got to revert back to his fundamentals and continue with the form of the first video; however, I am more impressed with Haye's movement, which is something he could have used a bit more in the first fight as he was dropping his left hand in a way where he should be mobile to use it more effectively. Anyway......I'm just talkin ****............Haye may beat Klitschko though just soley on his explosiveness and athletiscm. I don't know how well Klitscko responds to being hit, but he appears to get disoriented quicky and go into retreat mode where Haye will pummel him against the ropes. Toss up......****
Neither guy can take a punch. This fight has waaaaay to much hype. Arreola would beat both of these guys.
Wlad would Ray Austin any of them sadly. The only opponent you showed that would make it out of the 2nd round is possibly Mormeck, but I don't see him making it out of the forth. Jean-Marc wouldnt put Wlad down either. Haye is a great fighter, but every man he's ever fought Wlad would beat without dropping a round. I can name 4 or 5 fighters Wlad has fought I would give an excellent shot at beating Haye. The opposition here is no question in Wlad's favor.
Want to compare Vlad's opponents with Hayes'? Go right ahead. There is no comparision. Vlad is cleaning out the heavyweight division, Haye refused to fight anyone in the top 10!
Um - He wanted and got fights with Wlad and Vitali...how is that refusing to fight the top ten...which is ****...
I think the real question is how the small, fragile, and untested Haye is going to compete with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fyqPsC5NJFM
