Haye has never been knocked out like Wladimir has. The Carl Thompson fight was because he got tired and he was not knocked out cold like Wladimir has against Sanders... Wladimir has been stunned sevral times by fighters less than good punchers..So far Wladimir has not showed any willingness to dig it out. He places it safe...He can`t take it one the chin. Hayes face bonestrcuter is buildt more solid than Wladimirs, so logically he should be able to take harder punches.. Haye should have the better stamina,speed and willingness to fight because he has showed everybody that he is willing to take risks and fight it out. Wladimir has never done it. Haye is also quicker on his feets and moves better around the ring. Wladimir walks around to get in positions and thats not good footwork...He is slow on his feets and could be outspeeded in this fight. I can see a Corrie Sanders in this fight. Haye also throws better combinations as far as I have seen..Wladimir is not a good combination puncher.. Another big advandage for Haye is that he has studied Wladimir for years while Wladimir has just realized who Haye is...Based on this Haye has had a much longer time to build up mental confidence and to make a great plan how to beat him.Wladimir has many faults in his boxing and one of them is a fragile chin.. So Haye has speed and stamina on his size and power enough to knock Wladimir out. He also have the right mental attidude for this fight and he ain`t scared of Wladimir. He knows what he has to do to beat him.. Shannon Briggs also said that all you have to do to beat Wladimir is to fight him and I agree 100%. I think Haye would set Wladimir up for angles and use his speed to get close.. As soon Wladimir gets on his backfoot he will attack all out....He has the tip of the jaw in his mind and thats the target he will aim for.. When Wladimit covers up Haye would use his superior speed to get close and unleash barries of punches...I think he will mug Wladimir and get his mind to betray him. Wladimir has a weak mind under serious pressure and he has not been tested for a long time...This time he will and how he react to Haye can only been seen fight night...
Is there anything that Wlad does better than Haye.There's really no need to fight,Wlad just needs to hand the title to Haye and get this over with. Now ,if by a miracle Wlad were to win,i'm sure all his detractors will give him full credit for overcoming such large disadvantages:thumbsup
Well that`s because I think Wladimir is weak mentally. Boxing is all mentally..To be weak under pressure is not good...Wladimir is like Tyson a fighter who does best when he is on top. Tyson was of course different in his younger years... Haye is quiker and he has better stamina and I think he has gotton to Wladimirs head already..It looks like it..Wladimir always try to keep his cool but inside he is burning with negativ energy.. Wladimir is bigger and he has the heavier punch and better experince at heavyweight..Haye has speed, stamina and he is more hungry than Wladimir. Haye on the other hand has lots of amature experince and he has been a professional for years.He has won world titles at crusierweight, so he knows the feeling of being a world champion. To me it looks like Haye is very hungry and he has the skills to take Wladimir out..I have never concidered Wladimir to be a good world champion.I compare him with the likes of Trevor Berbick but with a bad chin. Things can of course turn out different with Wladimir landing a big shot.He is a big puncher and a huge man, so Haye has many obstacles to climb before he can reach the tip of the chin to Wladimir. I think his mental attidude would do it easier for him. Mental preperation is very important at this level of the fight game. Wladimir is kind of a big bully and Haye is doing what Ali did to Sonny Liston who also tried to be tough and cool. Liston was mentally beat before the match and I think the same thing could happen to Wladimir if the fight goes some rounds. If he gets hit and finds himself under pressure his mental focus would start to think on the things that Haye has said before the fight.. There is some words which describes how to beat a bully.Bully the bully and the bully gets scared..I think Wladimir can get scared if he can`t be the fighter controlling the match..
Hayes no question is the great back hope in this fight,,,,Wlad can only beat himself in this fight,,,This guy hayes is just a hope for time gone by, of black champ, an cooney was a hope for a white champ,,,,,
