    I hope Wlad shows up pissed and really fights Haye. It would be a great fight because Haye is no pushover.

    I do love the line "...if I knock him down he is to GET UP so I can continue the process...", one of those brilliant lines that only happens if English is not your first language.

    :lol: Yeah.

    I also loved when the announcer was kind of joking about the "Pizza Face" comment and Wlad just sat there without the faintest trace of a smile. You could practically see him thinking "I must break him."

    I haven't practiced spoken English in a long time. Might have lost touch with certain nuances :roll:

    i guess he should have said something like "if i put his azz down he better get back up so I can beat him some more"

    ?

    Its coz he learned German first. It's really screws up you'r English. The pronunciation, the temp of talk, sentence it's all starts to go very wierd when you start speak German.

    I understand and will certainly excuse him.If I spoke 4 languages my sentences would probably contain a bit of all 4.However,I will continue to enjoy listening to these gems of interviews he gives us

    This is very true. There is something about the word use, syntax and cadence a native German speaker who speaks English as a second language uses. Very distinctive.
