hey chef, how are you? how is vitali's camp going? does vitali thinks solis will be his toughest fight since sanders? and whats his opinion on wlads fight against haye?
I love how all Haye lovers jumped on some troll post and stared bashing him in order to look intelligent.
Wlad has 'great' footwork when advancing on immobile fighters with zero lateral movement, something Haye will not be. Haye will constantly be circling to negate Wlad's right hand, and if Haye tags him early enough, Wlad won't be walking him down at all. I think Haye himself knows that his key to success is getting Wlad out of his comfort zone and making him second-guess himself and Haye. If Haye lets Wlad settle into his usual jab-fest, he may as well give up (and I think Haye is far more ring-saavy than people give him credit for). I want this fight as much as anyone, and as much as I'm a Haye fan from his CW days, Wlad is no chump and Haye will have to bring his A-game and a top-notch strategy to win.
Wlad will only have to walk down Haye after he hurt him. Otherwise he can safely shoot his jab from a distance, without running much. It's Haye who has to do the legwork.
Haye is faster than Wlad? Never. Old Ruiz could land on Haye, Haye was not able to catch Vauev early in the fight. Haye never fight a fast heavyweight. IMO Wlad is faster than Haye with his feet and hands!
You should realize how long Wlads leg are. He makes one step, and Haye have to do one and a half. It is not about running, two boxers are together in a ring. You can move quick from one side to another with a big step and this has to do with how long the legs are. A man just tall as Wlad moves quick, and for a man you is much smaller it is difficult to move faster in a boxing ring. Just simple. Wlad is much faster than he seems to be. Look how suprise Chagaev was in the second round, he never saw the punch coming. To look faster does not mean, you can move faster away to get not hit or to move forword to hit the opponent. Wlad has the longer reach and the longer legs. Haye moves around Valuev, he looks fast, because Valuev is sooooo slow. Wlad fought Chambers, Chambers is one of the fastest heavyweights, same Chris Byrd. Both looked slow against Wlad, but fast against Vitali and Dimitrenko. Ibragimov is very fast, but could he hit Wlad clean? He try, Imbragimov fights on the outside and tries to counter Wlad, a little bit like Haye fights. But was he sucsessful? No. Against Harrison nothing happens in the first two rounds. Haye does not throw any significant punch. Do you really believe Wlad will let Haye walk around the ring like Harrison did and Valuev? Wlad will land every jab on Haye and i think Haye cannot take so many heavy punches like Chambers and Ibragimov.
You don't really believe that. Out of interest, is there anything Haye does better than Wlad in the ring?
how come when wlad stands next to haye...there is the same difference in height as when fraudley stands next to haye...when fraudley is supposedly 3 or so inches shorter? does fraudley pretend to be shorter than he is? always bothered me. :huh
Fraudley was using lifts/thick soles .... if you see other pictures of them standing next to each other the difference is way less. It was only to buildup that fight.
that is brilliant. wearing lifts is exactly the sort of dumbass thing fraudley would think of to "psyche out" his opponent. that guy is so deluded it's almost lovable (no homo).
