Wlad has more power, and "hate me for this Haye fans" he's got MORE SPEED in his hands. This is rare, David would be in for a treat if he took on Wladimir.
But you were basically saying Wlad has a better variety of punches than Haye because you said that he can throw straight punches, yet the majority of Haye's knockout victories have included straight punches which basically counteracts your statement.
Both are big punchers but Haye has more speed & variety. P4P I'd have to go with Haye but I'd say that Wlad is possibly the more powerful.
That was 8 years ago....... Barret is close to shot now.... ****in Cliff Couser stopped him in 2 rounds last year.atsch
Wlad has more power. But make no mistake Haye might be second to Wlad only. He didn't even hit Barrett flush and his speed is blistering (not to say that Wlad hasn't fast hands as well). In the end it is pretty much a wash, because both have the power to knock each other out cold, but Haye's careless style might be his undoing.
I honestly believe Haye has more concussive 1-punch power. Hopefully we will see who is right very soon...
