Sure they actually have to fight, but I fail to see 1 area where Wlad is at a disadvantage...MAYBE hand speed, but its not like Wlad is slow (which is what people falsely assume)....he's methodical in picking his punches, but he's got quick hands.
Maybe Handspeed?? Definitely!

Foot work too, Haye is far more mobile and has much more athleticism. Yes Wlad is athletic for a big guy but nowhere near as athletic as Haye. I personally think Punch power is very close and both mens chins are weak so I don't give either an advantage in either of those categories.

Wlad has the advantage in height, reach and experience!
