Haye seemed hesitant mixing it up with Audley freaking Harrison. Took Haye like 7 minutes to throw his first punch. I can't see how he will come out gunz blazin' against Wlad.
This will be a very easy fight for Wlad, the only question is will Wlad just brutalize Faye and KO him in 2 or 3 or will he take his time and KO him late in the fight. Wlad is safety first but this fight I see him destroying Faye early.
"IF" this fight were to happen, Haye will run like the chicken in the Rocky movie. The fight will never happen though.
This will happen but Haye will be forced into fighting like a wounded animal and will be most dangerous for Klit. Remember, he did open up on Valuev in the last round. He also fractured his hand against Valuev.
thats what he said... im not sure id trust a word outta his mouth. once he feels the power of wlads jab, haye will turn into runnin man and waaalaaaa he'll claim his back tightened up or somethin.
Valuev is very slow, you cannot compare Valuev with Wladimir. Evander Holyfield outboxed Valuev much better than Haye! Wlad´s jab will land and Haye will get into survival mode. Make make words. Haye is a talker. Eddie Chambers was a skilled and fast boxer you can take punches very well but Chambers couldn´t land nothing on Wlad.
Firstly, he broke his hand pretty badly early on in the SNV fight, so the style he used was more forced on him than a game plan he went in there with, he showed in the last round (?) that the power was there to take Sugar out. I think he'll go in cagey looking to stay on the run from Wlads long reach and lunge in occassionally and clumsily, lookng to test Wlads whiskers. If he rocks him at all, he'll steam right in there. If he doesn't, he loses on points.
It would make sense to try fighting as he did against Valuev for at least the first 3/4 rounds.It would be stupid to try getting too close early,he needs to make Wlad chase him around a bit a use up some energy.If this works Haye will probably try do the 12 rounds that way.If its not working and he is just getting nailed by the jab and loses the first 4 rounds then he will have to start taking risks.I dont think he will unless he has to though.
Corrie Sanders was a b-level semi-retired heavyweight after a paycheck when he KO'd wlad. :rofl:rofl:rofl This gets better and better. Haye has serious power, you better believe it. atsch Again? Just because Corrie Sanders, Ross Purritty and Lamon Brewster beat Wlad's ass, and just because super-slow Sam Peter knocked him on his arse 3 times doesn't mean those guys are great fighters, it means that Wlad is incredibly vulnerable! When are you Klit-huggers gonna realize, the reason they've been so dominant isn't because they're unbeatable, they're blatantly not, it's because there's absolutely ****-all out there in terms of a challenge.
None of the options you put up. It will be most like the Valeuv style, but being a hell of alot more active, he knows he can knock Wlad out and will look to counter Wlads jab from the start and use angles to get at Wlad. He's a fantastic counter puncher and when he gets Wlad hurt, which he will pretty early, he will jump on him and finish him off with the ref jumping in to save Wladdy. Wlad will be even more tentative than normal and if he starts pawing with that jab like he has a tendency to do or trys to clinch him Haye will destroy him sharpish.
That all you got? I also saw your post about how Ruiz managed to tag Haye with the jab in their fight so Wlad will have an easy time hitting him. Ruiz has a completely different style to Wlad, he is a non stop pressure fighter, and your going to take shots from a fighter like that at some stage because of there style. Wlad is nothing like that style. Not to mention Haye had pretty much zilch sparring for that fight because of a cut. How many times did the biggest heavyweight in history with the longest reach manage to hit Haye in 12 rounds? How many times did Harrison hit Haye? 1 jab out of 30 odd thrown. Maccarenneli landed 1 or 2 shots in 2 rounds. Not to mention Haye will not be as reckless against Wlad as he was against Ruiz or Barrett as he respects his power. He can fight many different ways whereas Wlad hides behind the jab every single fight.
I envision that haye will try to counter wlad. this is his best chance of winning. IMO wlad is vulnerable to two styles. 1) big relenltess punchers (prime brewster and faded sanders) 2) someone who can slip his jab and catch him with a hook. now the first style is proven, he got bladdered off purrity, sanders and brewster. I'd be willing to bet that te same would happen if he fought solis. and I would give a motivated arreola a decent chance. the second style is unproven, he has not fought anyone like that, it would take a prime tyson or a prime frazier to pull it off, but this is how i see haye fighting. If haye has the discipline and the stamina and the speed, it could be his only plan, because he isn't big enough to do what previous victors of wlad did. he will have to duck under the jab, lunge with a quick combo, then jump back out before the attacks come off wlad. In all likelihood, wlad won't present haye with this opening, will pepper him with jabs, and then with haye tired, will finish him with the booming right. the tiny chance haye has is down to two facets 1) his brilliant skill set 2) wlad's anger for him. if wlad does come ou uncomposed and swinging, we wll have a great fight which can go either way. if haye comes out swinging he will get stopped early if both fight a composed game plan, wlad will stop haye late on. i honestly only give haye a 5% chance. wlad is old enough to keep his compusre, and his own speed is good enough for him to fire off a jab without too much danger of haye countering. as a footnote though, even though sanders did end up bullying wlad to submission, lets remember who that fight actually wnet. wlad dominated the first two minutes, and sanders then caught him with a counter, the same counter he also caught vitali with.
