    He might win yes but'll he will have to negate hayes speed andt that might not be easy as it sounds. It'll be a great fight and this is what a hevyweight division needs a knockout artist like haye.

    Yeah it was to hayes trainer and manager adam booth, which seems to me that a deal if vitali gets past gomez the fight will happen.

    i think haye stands an outside chance v wladimir because he has the speed to land a bomb and might win with the floow up or intiial punch.

    i do not think haye has much more than a 10% chance v vitali , because vitali is not as vunerable and i beleive vitali will land something on haye and finish him in the follow up.

    I think Vitali had every right to look calm and confident.

    Whilst Haye looked good it was in no way a performance that would send shivers throught either Wlad or Vitali, despite what alot of people think or say.

    Haye looked good but, at the end of the day he fought a man who i believe Vitali and Wlad would have taken the Barrett of 2008 in quicker time.

    I thought the Rahman fight counted as Wlad's mandatory leaving his next fight open for a voluntary defence?
    Also can't see Povetkin coming back from an injury and fighting Wlad without a tune-up.

    I had the same impression. Vitaly almost seemed to be amused while listening to Haye.Guess that he still doesnt take him that seriously at this stage.

    Haye has no chance.

    For a start, he's chinny AND small that is a bad combination for any heavyweight.

    Secondly what's he gonna do??

    All Vitaly has to do is dictate from the outside then as haye come's in hit him, and it's light out. Haye's got to avoid being hit, show angles, dont fight in close [Vitaly's to strong], and he's gotta do it for 12 rounds, as knocking Vitaly out is not happening.

    I doubt he has the stratergy to do that, it would take an incredible effot i think is beyond haye completely.
