    Anyone who voted povetkin dont know boxing, haye landed more power shots and was far more elusive than povetkin. wlad should have beat Povetlin in 3 to 4 rounds.

    Accidentally voted Povetkin.

    While Povetkin had the better mentality, Haye quite obviously had more success.

    Haye tried plenty , Wlad just spoilt his way out of it. Haye stood in front of Wlad and Wlad could do nothing with him. Every time Haye came in he got out of there.
    Haye most certinaly fought better than Povetkin.
    Povetkin bored his way in and did nothing when he got there. He could of been a lot more aggressive.

    Povetkin though totally outclassed done his nation proud, behaved like a gent before the fight, was a complete warrior during the fight!

    Haye disgraced his nation by his loudmouthed antics, then produced next to nothing and blamed his big toe!....and I am a Londoner!

    Haye is a disgrace to the sport he never fights and can't even get through training camp.

    Wonder why all those power shots Haye landed didn't do anything to Wlad's "Glass jaw"? :huh

    Haye did show some impressive survival skills by being elusive :good Too bad he didn't show any skills on offense but I guess that's hard to do when you flop on the canvas 11 times :smoke

    Povetkin stayed in range and ate less clean right hands. Early he came in bobbed and weaved and made Wlad pretty uncomfortable and for the most part had wlads offense stifled

    Some of you guys are mental.

    Haye was cautious until the 5th round. He then retreated til a brief moment in the 12th.

    Povetkin at least tried, at times made Wlad uncomfortable, and actually caught him a few times with looping shots.

    Povetkin clearly fought better than Haye.

    Boxing well doesn't centre around standing in front of somebody and letting them punch you in the head until they collapse through exhaustion!Clearly Haye boxed better..Povetkin gave it his all but was too slow.He might have done better in those first few rounds if he had tried to rough Klit up eg bringing his head up into Klit s face when h tried to push him down.

    Povetkin he gave it his best and fought like a warrior, Haye ran scared for 12 rounds and took no risks

    Haye didn't box. He was in full survival mode.

    Povetkin at least touched up Wlad some.

    I would say Povetkin. Haye lacked a pair and withdrew from the fight.

    Haye got hit less but Povetkin overall performed much better.
