    First of all that old stigma about fierce and destructive HW champion is idiotic.
    This is actually only thing why I dislike Hagler(his WAR hat and everything seemed stupid to me). And **** of with your "embarrassing accent". I don't like it too but heavy accent is better than no language skill at all.
    On other hand (pun not intended) wlads magic hand is clearly joke aimed at Haye. He is taking a **** and he is successful at it. Haye is clearly irritated and now he is the one who should be worried about mind games.
    He still talked well and gave a good account of himself and his borat voice was spot on. He is secure enough to not give a **** and Haye is clearly bothered by that.

    Neither Wlad or Haye impress me in this regard really. I find the whole thing quite cringeworthy to be honest. Haye's stuff is pretty basic playground-esque stuff, he may occassionally say something that gets a smile from me, but that's about it. Wlad, as cool of a guy as he is, just seems as though he's trying too hard to be funny. Some of the things he's said are just down right bizarre, the 'magic hand' being a prime example.

    This press stuff isn't done for our benefit though, it's obviously intended to promote the fight to the casuals to bring in the £. Thank **** the talking will soon be stopping and they'll be getting in the ring!

    That's not the point, numb-nuts. Were not talking about the most intelligent, or articulate trash talker, we're talking about the most effective. The trash talker who get's to their opponent the most, the trash talker who has the clearest effect on there opponents mentality. Both of the guys named have a clear habit of upsetting and getting to their opponents, causing them to act out of character or even affect their performances.

    Terrible reading comprehension...........you lose :thumbsup.

    Haye looked like he was about to walk away from the camera. He could not stand it. That's what I laughed at. It was hilarios :lol:

    It would be boring to death. Everything that gets to Haye is dead funny. That is the whole idea with trashtalking.

    Effective?

    Hayes trash talk has had no noticeable effect on Wlad

    Wlad appears to have Haye very rattled indeed

    I genuinely found Wlad to be quite funny except for the magic hand thing which was just a bit weird and nonsensical. But at any rate, I rather he act like this than some humourless stoical Mr Niceguy.

    But anyone who thinks Haye's charismatic or funny needs their brain checked. He's neither. Unless you think tired classless insults spat with venom (and a slight stutter) are the sorts of things worthy of Ali.

    This.

    Haye played it cool on Ringside, his reaction to Wlad claiming he regrets the t-shirt thing was class :lol:

    It's funny though, because we're talking about ****ing trash talking. The key is in the trash part. Yeah, sometimes fighters can go too far but the whole purpose of trash talking is to be loud, abrasive, cocky and, sometimes, hateful too. To criticize a guy for being a rude, offensive trash talker is absurd. It's meant to be like that.

    Of course, leave it to Wlad fans for them to completely misunderstand what trash talking is and claim him to be effective at it, despite him being one of the nicest guys in the sport.

    No, it's not.
    What? You dislike the WAR hat?!
    I meant the Borat accent.

    Even Haye thought the Borat accent was genuinely funny, because it was.
