Wladimir Klitschko To Haye: “David, don’t be a coward and run away!”

It reminds me of a better produced Charlie Zelenoff video, but at least Zelenoff has a personality. Well at least Wlads trying to promote a fight for once, I will give him that.

 

I'm sure you found it hilarious when Haye knocked the head off the giant cardboard picture of Valuev........................now that was ****in A stupid.

 

Completely miss out the fact that Douglas wasn't the main HW, Wlad is.

Completely miss out the fact it took 4 years and 10 fights before he faced Bowe, one of the top HW's. Haye's had 3 REAL fights at HW over what, 16 months?

But you want Haye fighting the most dangerous guy in the division after 3 real fights at HW (he went back down to CW for Enzo remember?).

Be patient, Wlad's only 34, he's got a couple of years in him yet.

Infact I'll go further, if Haye fights Wlad right now I'm giving him little or no credit, Haye is nowhere peaked at the weight, he's still finding his feet.

 

Had Haye not produced all that BS calling out both brothers and saying how he would dispose all these "bums", we would not be having this discussion right now. He talked the talk, now it's time to walk the walk.

P.S. James "Buster" Douglas was the undisputed HW champion of the world. If that's not the top fighter in the division, then I don't know who is. He had beaten Tyson in his previous fight.

 

:good

Wlad seems to be angry. :smoke

 

I honestly didn't. Though I did think it was funny when Haye made fun of Valuev. Haye reminds me of an updated, english version of Ali with his antics. I do feel he brings a certain element that is missed in the division today, "Charisma". Something neither Klit has.

 

Only, Ali actually wanted to fight the best and challenge himself.

 

Will you take it back when Haye fights Wlad this year?

 

Like he was supposed to the 20th of June the last year, eh right.
:hi:

 

How tall was Douglas, how much body fat was on him? He weighed 230 for Tyson and was 6-3 or so, the same height as Haye, not the Klitchkos. The Klitchkos are 6-6 1/2 and 6-7 1/2 and near 250. Not an excuse. Look at all the Klitchko press conferences. The pictures are always ridiculous and it is clear who has the advantage. I don't think it is dumb to say the Klitchkos have an advantage in size over everyone they fight, and with David Haye it is even more since David just moved up from cruiserweight.
The Klitchkos are superheavyweights and not as good as it seems. If they were 6-3 and 220 they would not be champions very long. That size helps and means everything. It is everything. Haye should defend his title vs. the Holyfields or Toneys or Ruiz level guys. Get experience. Build his resume and maybe get up in weight a little more and more defensive and then maybe after 5-10 more fights take on the Klitchkos. too early now.

 

Holyfield at that time had been in wars and the first Qawi fight is a war most fighters never experience. Haye has less than 100 professional rounds. He needs more experience. At this point Haye would not be able to do much if he is being backed up by Vlad and being hit. If he gets 5-10 more fights it will help his defense and his stamina at the weight. Everything will get better. It is too early. The Ruiz fight showed that.

 

yeah whatever....


just did a search for this story on Google and it seems like it's on every major website there is, including CNN, Yahoo News, LA Times, etc. Great move by Wlad!

 

The Klitschkos do have personality though, Wlad is usually the good guy & Vitali the bad guy. Wladimir has stepped up the challenge though & this is a good thing. D

 

WTF is this talk of measurements? They're all Heavyweights & Haye shot his mouth off & now he either steps up to the challenge or he takes the easier route, like he already did-twice.

 

Haye has said lots of times four more fights and then he retires.

Little Klit will probably be the fourth fight so I expect it to happen in 2012.
