    Techincally it was fought at a very high level. Both guys impressed me with their boxing skill and speed/reflexes, especially defensively. It was hard for either man to hit the other.

    It was too much of a cat and mouse game to truly be exciting.

    You didnt mind watching Haye lose and then guys like us having to fend off harresment from hundreds of pissed off Klitschko fans. The people got extremly ****in hostile. Being at this site was like trying to get honey from a bee hive for Haye fans.

    Its not defense if you´re running away, unable/unwilling to mount and offence. Its just running away. He ran and lunged from time to time. And it was thoroughly disgraceful because Haye never even thought about winning this fight. He was a loser from the get go. He acted like a loser in the conferences, acted like a loser for his ring walk and proved to be a loser in the ring.

    It was a masterful disgrace and a sorry excuse for a mega fight.

    What about Wlad who was frightened to engage and fought a very defensive fight as he was scared of being hit by Haye?

    I take it he gets a pass because you hate Haye right?

    I suppose you are one of the morons who rate Wlad as an atg on that back of that fight as well.

    Comparing Wlad´s offence to Haye´s in that fight is like apples and oranges. There´s a reason Wlad won every single round. Wlad should have opened up more and thrown more power punches but his offence was still light years ahead of Haye´s i.e., it actually looked coherent.

    It was an exciting match up and build up...edge of your seat fight, but no KO climax...

    It was a good fight and that was a great highlight video. Haye was sharp for 12 rounds but doesn't have the boxing ability and exerience Wlad has. Both showed good chins

    If you look at it objectively without the hate for either fighter it was a highly skilled technical fight, the like of which you just dont see anymore in the Heavyweight division. Both fighters are great athletes. Admitedly it wasnt a great spectacle for the casual fan but i thought it was great techically to watch.

    But hey, haters gunna hate.

    Haye was too reluctant and didn't commit to anything but holy ****, he is one slick heavyweight.
