    He is obviously trying to get under the skins of the Klitschko brothers, but both brothers are cold, emotionless fighters. They do not seem the type to let tacky trash talking unsettle them and I don't think Haye wants to give them a reason to want to punish him, but, he has.

    Haye has already got inside Wlad's head.. It's obvious.. I dont know how much effect that'll have on wlad's game plan but im sure he's going to fight with a little more aggressiveness and throw punches with mean intentions..

    I think Haye will be fine.. I want him to win that's all i know.

    Its hype for the fight, but Haye is a bit immature with his. Ultimately all his **** talkin is gonna make it funnier to see him laid out on the canvas at the end of the fight.

    I have seen pretty much every fight Haye has had and the vast majority of Wlad's fights and Wlad is on another level technically to Haye in my opinion. He has better technical skills and better footwork. Haye is very reliant on that right hand, and he does possess genuine knockout power, but he's never fought a fighter of anywhere near the ability of Wlad. His best wins have come against Mormeck, a come forward brawler who very nearly knocked him out, and Enzo Maccarinelli, who has never been able to take a punch and just isn't really that good to be honest.

    No, it's incredibly clever.

    He's trying to get under his skin and he's done it. Wlad wants to beat his arse, and to do it he's going to have to go looking for him.

    Therefore Wlad is a bit more aggressive and the fight is at mid-range as opposed to Wlad sticking outside on his boring arse jab and straight right.

    Haye knows his advantage is at mid-range, where the better leverage on his punches, greater mobility and speed earns him a knockout victory.

    The article where Wlad says he wants to give him a prolonged beating.

    No, he honestly believes that he will KO Wlad. And he will...

    I completely understand that, but I think Wlad is far too clever to fall for mind games like this. I can see him using his height and reach advantages all night and picking Haye apart at range. Haye will undoubtedly come winging in with those massive looping left hands he likes to throw, and when he does, he will pay.

    i agree most of its hype for the fight and to make both brothers want to fight him, but i think he believes he'll win too.
    however, i think there's an element similar to how Ali felt in the build up to liston 1 (so ive read) involved here too. haye believes he can do it but doesnt know for sure til it happens. i think he will win and go on to unify the titles.

    Wlad is a professional top athlet. He will be cool and trains and make his tactics with Steward.

    On fight night Haye will realize that in the ring talk is cheap. The fist will speak and than Wladimir will be the louder man.

    Wlad by KO round 6.

    come on... your to knowledgeable to really believe that haye got to Wlad.... its all fight hype. No way Wlad will let his emotions take over during the fight. Wlad will be hard, cold hearted, and VERY focused and dangerous come fight night

    Haye is talking because hes gonna smash that ass!! I cant wait to see Wald take this beating. Haye is faster, better combos, better footwork, and both probably tied on chins. The only thing Wald has going for him is that jab. he better do what he did aganist Ibramov or hes going to sleep
