Check the water bottles COOK...we don't want Waldos fluids being tampered with again :-(...remember, when he's twitching on the canvas roll him on his side and make sure that he hasn't swallowed his tongue...then just wait for the ambulance thumbsup
Both are in great shape... no excuses for anyone. Both confident, both well trained, both top notch talents. Let's just sit back and enjoy!
Looking at the weigh in pics something strikes me. Notice how wide Haye and Wlads shoulders are in relation to height. Haye is wider, and Wlad is more compact. That explains why they punch the way they do. One swings looping punches while the other punches straight. It also tells me who can physically cover up better. Hayes wide shoulders while intimidating, also leave huge lanes for straight punches to penetrate and limit his inside game. Remember how slow Ruiz got in several jabs on Haye and how Haye needed distance to deliver on Ruiz? Wlad is going to have an easy time jabbing at Haye, and even if Haye ducks and weaves, it won't be forever, because that just means throwing punches from down low and telegraphed. Wlad will see them coming. The more I analyze this fight, the easier I see this fight being for Wladimir.
Was never super excited for this fight, but I'd always planned on watching. I'm just happy we FINALLY have a fight with 2 heavyweights who aren't just fat cruisers or light-heavies.
