    :deal Once again EXACTLY . Haye fought the only way that would give him a shot at winning . That was avoiding getting hurt and trying to position himself for the home run . Anything else would have been futile .:good

    Word on the street is that the two of them are going to fight a loser eliminator match-up to determine who was the biggest Klitschko victim. Probably why Haye pulled out of the fury bout.

    Povetkin is maybe a less dangerous fighter than Haye, but he gave his best and took shots with no excuses or bitching. Haye just wouldn't engage.

    Vladimir is super cagey and holds and leans every time an opponent gets close.....despite normally having huge physical advantages

    Haye knew this , so tried not to get beat up while hoping to land some big shots, he landed a Couple that troubled Vlad but straight away Vlad clinched him up

    Povetkin in landed no big shots and got battered

    I'd say Haye fought the better fight

    Both attempts were always gonna be futile though

    Exactly. This is why all these morons are simply out of their element.

    The last time Wlad held was Peter 1. That was nearly 10 years ago.

    If a dude isn't dive bombing his chest, Wlad rarely holds.

    For me haye fought better! Wladimir could have knocked povetkin out easily! The right hand was there all night but he stopped shooting it.
    Dont know why because he had a dead exhausted man infront of him with no headmovement.. Either wladimir decided to let povetkin live or he injured his right hand. On the other hand wladimir was going after haye for 12 rounds
    but still couldnt knock him out!

    Povetkin? He literally ran at Wlad with his head down the whole night.
