the double standards here is outstanding how many haye fans where mocking wlads opponents for doing what haye himself eventually done??calling them stiffs and bums??if haye didnt want to utilize rushing wlad then thats fine as u say no point taking a health risking beatdown..but he will now and always take flack for this aproach because of his behaviour outside of the ring and his treatment of wlads ex opponents regardless if he was just selling the fights...and all im saying is he did not do all he could to win he tryd one way it didnt work so he went on to survive..his bahaviour outside the ring before and after the fight is wat makes him a coward
To those who say Haye didn't try to win the fight... He somehwat found the opening he was looking for in the 12th. He buzzed him, and Wlad grabbed onto him for over 12 seconds while the judge just stood there until he eventually dragged haye to the ground. After going 11 Rounds and then having to support Wlad's full body weight, there's no wonder Haye couldn't do much after that. I think he did what he could. Besides, I don't see anyone giving Wlad any **** for talking about how he was going to punish Haye for 11 Rounds and KO him in the 12th. The 12th Round came, and what the **** did Wlad do? He got buzzed by the best punch of the fight and then held on to avoid further damage.
haye got buzzed himself with a short right hand he walked into then he ran into the corner doing his usuall mid air swimming routine..now thats being buzzed..wlad holding after being hit is what he does..haye engaged in the 12th once o la de da wlad should have knocked him out then shouldnt he lol catch a grip mate
