The fighters: I like Wlad's personality though I'm not too much of a fan of his fighting style. I do recognize Wlad is the best heavyweight boxer of this era and do appreciate him for his accomplishments. He turned a career around. I don't like David's personality though I like that he brings an exciting fighting style. I don't think David has done enough to earn a spot as one of the best heavyweights of this era, but I do see how he can spark so much interest from his trash talk, fighting style, and his cruiser weight accomplishments. Its time David faces the best in the division. The fight: As much as I like Wlad, I do wish that David has a very competitive fight with him and ultimately wins, ONLY as long as David agrees to fight Vitali. What that will do to boxing world is generate an even bigger MEGA heavyweight boxing fight before the end of the year. There will be more of a story to it. The story for this fight is David and Wlad have been running from each other and promises to knock each other out have been all the hype. The story then will be of Vitali wanting to avenge his brother's defeat and David trash talking even more about the brothers and how he will defeat Vitali just as he did Wlad. Replays will give David and his supporters all the confidence he needs while it will give Vitali and his supporters all the more reason to want to destroy David. My prediction: As much as David has been talking, I think he will play it cautious the first few rounds just to start feeling comfortable fighting someone with Wlad's size and excellent jab. Wlad will also be cautious behind his jab, as he knows that David packs a punch and speed. In the middle rounds I see David opening up more and Wlad taking advantage of it. Ultimately, the jabs will slow down David and Wlad will be there to take him out.
haye will fight the same as he did against valuev and groves did against degale haye is defensive as a heavyweight he knows he has to be careful he will back up use head movement to slip wlads jab he will step side to side with a one two the back off again ocassionally he will have a swing up then back straight off again he can't make one mistake or he's ****ed ! he needs to hit and run !!!!! if he slips to the right under wlads jab he could walk on to a massive right ???? and if he stays in the pocket too much and wlad grabs him or leans on him with his size and weight .......haye will get tired and haye has suffered from stamina probs in the past ? Its a Risky Fight and i hope he does it but i dont think it will be a exciting fight ?
I agree. Haye will stink up the joint by running and Wlad will get all the blame for the snoozefest. Wlad UD 12. Haye retires on the spot saying boxing doesn't interest him anymore.
