    True, they were really pushing him hard going into that fight vs. Adamek. One loss to Vitali shouldn't ruin his career though obviously it's a setback, so is the loss to Adamek and at this point it makes sense that he's slid back to Friday Night Fights instead of being an HBO headliner.

    So does Deontay Wilder. Still as a total KO% Haye does have a higher total but by a very slim margin. But at Heavyweight it's %80. He also Has a significant amount of less fights on his resume. If he decides not to retire he'd need to get 16 straight KO's to stay above Vitali. And if he wanted to keep ahead of Wlad's KO% he'd have to get 30 wins with 27 coming by KO. That's 4 more KO's then he has now. I don't like those odds.
    Though his KO% is very impressive, as are the Klitschko's.

    Yea dude those camera angles on the ESPN broadcasts which I guess are the RTL feed, are horrible. I almost get motion sickness . All this swooping in and out and strafing around the fighters in circles. I don't get it. half the time you can't see the effectiveness or complete power of the punches being landed because the camera is at the wrong angle. What was wrong with the classic profile view and the occasional close ups?

    And you are spot on about Arreola. I still route for him after that Vitali fight and hope he changes his commitment level to the sport.

    I hate watching the fights on ESPN, it takes alot away from the build up and the excitement of the fights. I really dont know whats worse, the camera angles or the comercials inbetween rounds. Like I said, I understand why HBO doesn't show the Klit fights anymore. If theirs no money in it, why do it? I just wish ESPN would do a better job with the broadcast.

    Arreola will not change, he will be fat or even more fat as he gets older. His chances of being a title holder are slim to none imo, though I do like his personality. Very down to earth, and acts like someone you would meet at a bar and have a drink with.

    Haye should wait a couple more years, and then pick off the brothers when they become geezers.
