David Haye vs. Vitali Klitschko.

[IamInuit]

How long since those T-shirts came out? Whats he done? I bought his entire schtick. Once. I think he will knock Fury out and I expect him to call Vitali out again immediately after. He will do this because Vitali has an obligation to fight another and may retire before or soon after. If he was really concerned with any kind of legacy at hev he would challenge the winner of Wlad/Povetkin. Trouble is even if he does, I cant take the guy serious anymore.

When you throw in the age factor, ANY fight that Vitali has in 2014 will be his toughest fight in years.

I agree with this 100%.. really this all depends with how much vitali has left... his style relies a lot on his height and reactions, he prefers to dodge punches rather than block them so if his reactions have slowed enough the haye has a chance of doing some damage to him(although I still haven't seen vitali hit hard since the sanders fight..)... I tihnk both at their best vitali walks through haye the same way he did v herbie hide but now it just depends how well he has aged and it is hard to say seeing as he doesnt like to fight much anymore... hard to say with vitali it seems he was injured v chisora(and the punch stats/lack of left hand jabs and hooks stat back that up) and charr seemed to cause him some problems but still charr was dropped fairly... so who knows..

not sure what vitali is up to just now... i hope he will fight stiverne soon

[palmerq]

also i think vitali will fight haye next year and not stiverne

[FinitoElDinamita]

I hope Vitali fights him and shuts his mouth for good. I can't stand this part time fighter. After false advertising himself for the Wlad bout, he got the audacity to chase Vitali whose probably the more dangerous of the two bros..

Haye doesn't have what it takes to beat a real fighter like Vitali.

Win lose or draw vs Fury, Haye-Vitali isn't going to happen. Vitali will retire after he fights Stiverne, if he even ends up doing that.

Its not even worth thinking about really. Haye's value is nothing when it comes to fighting a Klitschko given his last performance vs one. Haye had PLENTY of shots to fight Vitali and he took a pass......gee I wonder why

you are right it will never happen so theres little point in thinking about it

you are wrong tho a fight with haye would be more lucrative than any other for vitali so it holds a lot of value

and to answer the thread question, if vitali thought he still had what it takes to beat haye he would have fought him already

a lot of these posts driven by hate

Why would it be lucrative? Everybody saw how Haye fought Wlad who Haye considered the weaker of the brothers. Haye bottled it, he had no ambition in the fight. So I guess you're telling me that England is full of delusional idiots who still believe Haye or sadistic bastards who want Haye brutalized.

theres one massive contradiction in all of that dude

you could be right - perhaps english people are delusional, perhaps there are lots of haters

perhaps those are the reasons vitali would make a mint fighting haye, more than fighting anyone else by a long distance

so why doesnt he? the only reason i can see is he isnt confident he would win

Where's the contradiction? Vitali gave Haye several chances to fight him but NOW if Vitali says "You had your opportunity and didn't take it" all of a sudden "Vitali is not confident in his ability to win"? Really dude?

My point is even though Haye might look like a superstar vs someone else he'll never...repeat NEVER look like that vs a Klitschko. All Haye has vs a Klitschko is his mouth and everyone is tired of that charade

His mouth AND a T-shirt... don't forget the shirt :-)

Lets also not forget, had Wlad's big brother not been Vitali, he wouldn't currently enjoy his status as the worlds no.1 heavyweight. He is top man by default. We don't actually know who was the true dominate heavyweight of this era.

Has there ever been anyone in history that has got so much credit for beating fighters they have never even fought?

They are individuals for fucks sake!!!
