Vitali may be the one getting Haye.....YEAH!

He's always been Hayes choice. Booth wants Wlad. I honestly don't see why Haye prefers fighting Vitali. That's one tough SOB.

 

Age, both chronologically and body wise.

 

Nice website:good Funny how they both want to knock him out and that he thinks Wlad would end Haye's career

 

I think Vitali is the easier fight for Haye, and it's the one i'm more interested in seeing.

 

I have always thought of Vitali as the more natural. I could be wrong. I just think he has the personality to go out and destroy Haye. Chef claims Wlad is the better, but something about Vitali...... He is very relaxed in the ring.

 

Style wise Wladmir is more of a nightmare,Vitali has a better chin but less mobilty.His knee is also more prone to injury

 

Because he could outbox Vitali...but he couldnt outbox Wlad. Wlad hits harder and is much faster. Now he would have a greater chance of getting the knockout vs Wlad... I think VK is the easier brother to beat for a fighter like Haye who has a questionable chin.

 

I appreciate that but Vitali looked a million dollars against Arreola even taking into account Arreolas poor attitude. Johnson was just damn awkward.
When you include Vitalis great chin, I don't understand what Haye sees that he can exploit. He won't stay away from Vitali for 12 rounds.

 

Arreola stood right in front of Vitali and was compeltely one dimensional with no evident gameplan at all.

Haye will probably fight like he did with Valuev and get Vitali moving, and tiring. He'll use his speed and movement to create angles and dictate when they engage, and in the process will try to stop VK getting that big work-rate of his going. He'll basically just try to use atheticism, speed, and movement to try to overcome Vitalis age, injuries, and stamina. He's also shown he has good power so he may be able to stun Vitali .. maybe. He'll probably work the body early to slow him down, that way in the later round he can start headhunting and plant his feet for a few shots.

That'll be his plan, whether or not he can implement it and it works is another thing. Vitali gets to fight his fight cause of his size, reach, etc, as well as what his opponents do (or don't do, specifically). It will be interesting to see how Vitali reacts to a fighter thats on the move and landing accurate clean shots on him.

I think if Haye catches Vitali coming in, with a perfectly timed shot with his feet planted, then he could stun him.

 

Maybe Haye thinks the speed difference will be bigger against Vitali and he can avoid his shots... whereas Wlad has the 'weaker chin' compared with his brother.. but has speed a lot of power and more risk of getting hit?

 

He doesn't. These days, Haye is about as cautious as they come. He will wait to see how Vitali looks against Soswoski. If Vitali fights well, Haye will announce an extended vacation due to his wife's pregnancy. If Vitali fights poorly and it looks like he's slipping, he will agree to the fight. For anyone with a brain, his routine is predictable as the sun rising in the east.

 

Not true. Haye challenged Wlad first, obviously. He only became interested in fighting Vitali for his more "legit" WBC belt when Vitali started to look old over his past few fights. Nice try, though.

Got to agree with bkamins, I like haye but I Truly think he's going to wait until the sosnowski fight to come out his shell. Depending on how vitali looks he'll then make a decision. ESPECIALLY if by some miracle sosnowski wins. (won't happen but lets just imagine) , I'm almost positive Haye would be in line clamoring for unification with Albert.
