Thread: There is no height Issue

I have heard some things resently regarding the Haye v Klitshko fight about how Haye is going to deal with Wladimir's height and reach. Well I cannot see that this will be an issue just ask Samuel Peter 6′ 2″, Lamon Brewster 6′ 2″, Corrie Sanders 6′ 4″ and Ross Puritty 6′ 3″. These fighters had no problem getting to Wladimir's chin and I am sure Haye is a hell of alot faster and hits alot harder than these fighters.

I am sticking my neck out here and going to see Haye knocking out Wladimir within around


Job Biscuit (even though I think Wlad is a top geezer)!!!


eh eh!!!

And if 13 was fighting the Wlad of 5-7 years ago? I might agree.

But I'm pretty sure he isn't

In fact Samuel Peters (The 1st Fight) was the only fighter in years who had a desire to win and nearly pulled it off but unfortunatley for Peters he is so dog slow and Wlad took advantage of this weakness to keep away for the majority of the rounds.....but I do believe he wont be able to do this against Haye who will chase Wlad down and punish him and keep punishing Wlad until Wlad will go into mental melt down and get stopped.


Job Biscuit (I mean who really had the desire to fight Wlad)!!!


eh eh!!

"Hits a lot harder" really a lot Where the hell is the evidence he hits harder at all than brewster or peter? Haye certainly is a powerful puncher but I don't think he has proven to be a monster puncher at heavy yet, all the fighters he has stoped at heavy have been stopped before and in quicker fashion.

Cliff Clouser got Monte Barrett out of there THREE rounds before David Haye did.

Michael Sprott only took a minute longer to knock out A-Force.

David Tua KO'd John Ruiz in a single round. It took Haye nine rounds to do it - and Ruiz got up from one of his 'Hayemakers' square on the chin.

Haye's power is overrated. I'm pretty sure that if himself and I tested our punch power on one of those machines you get in a pub, he would only get about 20 points more than me. True story.

Epic!

Speed is power and the speed of Haye will be a major factor....also Wlad has a very bad habit in clinching and if the ref is any good he will give Wlad a warning and make him stop. Haye needs to keep swarming in and get close and go hell for leather and beat Wlad to the punch. Hopefully within 5 rounds Haye will be victories

Job Biscuit (Haye is going to be to quick)!!!

eh eh!!

Are we playing with pokemon cards or talking about boxing? there's way too many variables to take into account to simplify it down to basic numbers like that.

Ali was taken down the stretch by frazer... floored and beaten... Foreman CRUSHED Smokin' Joe... yet Ali stopped Foreman?

What one fighter does doesn't always correlate with what another can't.

Haye might not win, but you're using a pretty shitty barometer to measure power.
