Let's be realistic - what are the odds that Haye pulls off an upset?

if haye wins it is only a minor upset

Come on Erics, outside of the dream world you seem to live in when it comes Haye, this would have to be considered a major upset in the sport of boxing.

by major what do you mean? liken it to another upset

I was thinking about this last night. Ali over Liston was what I came up with. The oddsmakers don't agree with me, but that's how shocked I'd be. I think Haye is thoroughly overmatched.

This would be one of the 5-6 biggest surprises to me in my boxing life.

Ali over Foreman (I was rooting for it, just didn't think it was possible)
Leon Spinks over Ali
Kirkland Laing over Duran (Kirkland freaking Liang?)
The Ragamuffin Man over Donald Curry
Salvador Sanchez (who?) over Danny Little Red Lopez
Vilomar Fernandez over Alexis Arguello

If Haye wins? This fight goes on that list.

The 5th/6th biggest upset you've ever seen?

Man... during your life, with your expertise, if you put your money where your mouth is you'd have made an absolute fortune. Trust me.

LOL! Knowing boxing history and being able to see things in advance are very different things. I had JMM, Oscar, Diaz, Hatton and Cotto all beating Manny!

Hell I had Hagler over Leonard and Mancini over Bramble!

Really? And you're picking Wlad? I best get my money on Haye ;-)

Personally I feel the odds are a little too close for Haye. This is probably down to so many Brits over here backing Haye blindly. A lot of people I know who don't really follow boxing like we do are convinced Wlad is gonna get KTFO. They've bought into the hype.

For me it's 70-30 in Wlad's favour. I will have a few small punts on the KO & round for both fighters, those are only ever the decent odds in boxing. No way this goes to the cards.
