    I think the same thing, but with the roles reversed.

    Everytime I play this fight out in my head I see Haye going down either from a jab or a cuffing shot in round 4. He takes a knee and composes himself like in the Mormeck fight. But to no avail, an angry Wlad closes the shot with Haye on his feet.

    I am certainly going to leave this alone with the bookies..... I really cannot see how Haye will fight.

    Will he go in there all guns blazing or sit on the back foot a little.... I really can't.

    I'm going with Haye in this one.

    Vlad looks **** scared everytime an opponent fights back, and Haye will fight back. Looking for Haye to stay away from that jab for a couple of rounds and then bomb the big robot out sometime in the first half of the contest (a pot shot from distance, because I can't see Haye having much success trying to fight his way into the inside).

    My problem with Haye is I don't see the same thing everybody else seems to be.

    In his one and only meaningful fight at heavyweight he just wasn't that impressive. He wasn't precise at all. All he seemed to do is wait and wait, and then suddenly launch huge hayemaker right hands. There wasn't any method, any accuracy, any thought of defence. Sure, one of them could hit Wlad, but its not anything that suggests he's a great chance.

    That was because he was trying to bomb a HW out in style to force one of the Klits to fight him.

    Didn't really work as intended as he didn't look half as good as he can look. But it showed his power had travelled up.

    If he had fought more like he usually does he would have had Barrett out of there quicker IMO.

    I wish I'd been around before Hatton-Mayweather, seen what the Brit forum poll said then. :lol:

    K2 undercards are usually naff but this one seems decent by their standards.

    Alexander Ustinov v Michael Sprott
    Cedric Boswell v TBA
    Jonathan Banks v TBA (@ HW not CW)
    Andy Lee v TBA

    Let's hope they give them some decent opponents.

    Wladamir said he will punish David for the whole fight and then knock him out in the 12th, didn't he? You reckon he will go against Emmanuel Stewards commands and stick to his word (or atleast until the ref stops it) ?

    As for the winner, i THINK one of them will be Knocked down in Round 1, i think Haye will be knocked down in round 1, then pile of alot of pressure and speed which troubles Wladamir for 3-5 rounds, maybe even enough to stagger him a few times, but Wlad figures him out and gets through the pressure and TKO's Haye somewhere between the 5th and 8th round when Haye starts to tire and Wlads weight is used to push and tire Haye even further.

    But FINGERS CROSSED I hope David Haye does it and KO's him then KO's that big tree Valuev too for robbing Holyfield!
