    I know this would seem a stupid question but Fallow drove me to ask it.

    Hands down Wlad. Had Wlad hit with 1 right hand there would have only been one KD. not 5.

    Wlad takes this one, imo. But Haye is one helluva puncher as well.

    Wlad has been consistently in my top p4p punchers for years...Generally towards the edge of the top 10 or sometimes hovering just outside it. Even if he has mixed results I think that has more to do with his confidence and approach rather then his power. Not many heavies around now can turn a fight with one punch like he can.

    I think he takes this for me but its pretty close, Haye is certainly one of the most explosive fighters around today.
    Interesting to note both knocked Monte down 5 times.

    Im sure it was only 5 mate. I definitely remember Wlad dropped him 3 times to finish it, I can only vaguely recall two other KD's in that fight.

    WK wins hands down, but most importantly WK's power comes from straight, crisp punches. Haye's punches come from hooks generally and many of them are wild, very round punches, ala Sam Peter.

    That's true.

    I'm not saying Haye doesn't hit hard, especially for a Cruiserweight, just that Wlad hits harder, especially for a Heavyweight.:D

    Haye is a bit more refined than Peter but I'd say Peter punches harder than Haye too.

    Probably Wlad but Haye has perhaps speed advantage at getting his punches off.

    Not live but on the tube and such. I am not comparing him wholely to Peter, trust me. I just mean that when Haye gets excited, he starts throwing crazy, amateur style punches. Its that wild swing for the fences stuff. That will get him KO'd in a blink against with Klitschko.

    He does not fight like that all the time, but when he gets wild, its wild.
