    One punch power I would give to Haye now, as Vitali doesn't seem to put a lot of meat into his punches any more. They are predominantly arm punches.

    But over the course of 12 rounds, I would say Vitali would punch harder more consistently whereas Haye has to load up and gasses quite quickly.

    When you see Vitali fight these days it's hard to believe he knocked so many guys out in the early rounds at the beginning of his career. One can only assume his shoulder\knee problems have taken his power.

    "Now"? "Anymore"? :huh

    Vitali was always a heavy-handed arm puncher.

    Haye, meanwhile, has power that was better at cruiser and overrated at HW but is still formidable and probably top 3 at the weight (which Vitali's most certainly isn't)

    Vitali has been known to wobble people with his jab.

    Doesn't matter. What matters is whose Chin could take the others punches and we all know the answer to that.

    Haye, even not counting weight.

    David Haye knocked out Derek Chisora. Vitali couldn't even hurt him.

    Vitali has a great KO ratio, but he has only fought slow stationary bums who just stood right in front of him.

    Other's, not others. :admin

    You have glass Grammar.

    And stop putting 2 spaces after every period. You're on a computer, not on a typewriter. One computer space equals two typewriter spaces.

    :deal

    Haye can bomb, Vitali is heavy handed no doubt, but Haye is a
    legit banger. Vitali beats on people til they fall out.

    Look at Vitalis 99 fight against Hide. Back then he was healthy and injuryfree and commited to his big right hand. His injuries makes his punches look akward nowadays. He is still heavy handed but nowhere near his best. I remember a list on the FrontPage of the biggest hitters in heavyweight, his right hand was mentioned as one of the hardest single shots in the division...That was then...
    Haye is more explosive and fast, Theres lots of power in his shots..Look at the damage he did to Ruiz face...
