    Haye sucked dick. And repeatedly flopped like a *****.

    I normally don't call fighters bitches but Haye is a *****.

    i think he did ok.

    Peopl expected alot more from him.

    I personally expected him to get KO'd in the first 6 rounds, so i was suprised by how good he was defensively, his ability to take a shot. And the fact he looked to shake Wlad a couple of times.

    His main downfall was he never went for broke.

    Haye did a pretty decent job. If everyone hadn't been so ****ing sensitive about his talking, the fight would have actually been scored a tad bit closer.


    As far as his "flopping" Wlad gets away with that holding and leaning too damn much.

    Like I said before, I never bought into the hype and never saw him as a big threat to the brothers.
    Nevertheless he did underperfom, or rather his tactics sucked carrots on a (very) rainy day. What the hell was he thinking ruining the evening for anyone out there? :-(

    Did that fight look the same live as it did on tv? and how many rounds did you gave haye? I think I gave him 3 rounds, he did oki in the first few rounds but than wlad took over and was banking rounds easily, haye tried in round 12 but failed.

    He shared the first couple of rounds but once wlad started running away with it Haye showed a failure to adapt, and just like past opponents he became content with survival..

    His performance was no better than wlad's pervious string of opposition.

    Quite frankly it was pretty hard to see the fight clearly (and I was sitting A rank) over there, so mostly I peeked to the big screen wich probably showed the same you saw on tv (RTL7 in your case probably).
    I had it 10 rounds to 2 and according to the British fans all around me I was pretty favourable to Haye according to their standpoint :lol:
    I gave him 1 out of the first 4 as I remember and the last, but the guys surrounding me had Haye needing a KO after round 6.

    There was nothing in the early rounds. Its the middle rounds Wlad took over

    Better than expected. He was expected to get KO'd right?

    Haye did a good job relative to Wlad's other competition. He made Wlad miss a lot and didn't take much damage in there. But when his strategy of jumping in from the outside with (very few) single shots was clearly not working, he didn't have the guts to go out on his shield to try for the win, which was particularly disappointing with all the talking he did beforehand. Nor did Wlad truly press for the knockout.

    Haye made Wlad miss a lot, he showed defensive skills I never knew he had.

    Ironically the build-up to this fight was about 2 strong offences against dodgy chins......defences ultimately prevailed!!
