See Haye Call Out Wlad...

[WelshDevilRob]

Can't see why a 3 belt holder at Crusierweight gets dissed for calling out the No.1 Heavyweight? What's that about.

A fighter shows ambition and confidence in his own ability but still some don't like it.

Maybe their worried that there boy will get sparked once again.

I would love to see Haye get his chance to fight Wlad.. But I can't see him winning aside from giving him a small punchers chance.. Whoever said if Wlad can't KO a fat plodder like Sultan he won't do Haye should really rethink that imo.. Look at the way Sultan fought Wlad, he was backing up using the ring and trying to counter the entire time, and never got past the jab. What's to suggest that Haye would addopt a similar tactic, especially being an even smaller man with a questionable beard and stamina? I think people are severly underrating how accurate Wlad's jab is, as well as the effect even it would have on Haye's jaw. Hayes only chance imo would be to go out and try to bumrush Wlad early, but even in doing that he'd give Wlad an oppourtunity to open up. He'd also have to risk getting caught on the way in. I could actually see it being a good fight should Haye be succesful in an early assault.. But if he even considers waiting for his spot and lets Wlad get going, I don't think he'll fair well at all. Still perhaps the most exciting potential HW fight going though. I don't think Peter will do any better against Wlad, I really disagree that he's a much improved fighter.. Maybe slightly, but he's still very average in most departments imo. Wlad also should be a lot more confident if they fight again as he shook off a lot of cobwebs over the 12 when they fought and only realized late that he could hurt Peter easily.

People aren't dissing David Haye, we all acknowledge he is a very skillful fighter, but to say that in spite of all his weaknesses that he will beat a guy who is 6'6 and one of the most technically sound heavyweights we've ever seen is pushing it. Haye might do well against a lot of the guys in the heavywieght division, but he is exactly the type of fighter that Wladimir wouldn't have tons of troubles with, He can't seem to fight with his hands up, and Wladimir has had no trouble landing on faster, better defensive fighters than Haye, and people talk about Haye's power when they are forgetting that Wladimir is maybe the hardest puncher in the heavyweight division and also one of the hardest punchers in the sport. ONe more thing to add to this is that Wladimir's jab nullifies speed, and the heavier the weightclass the less footspeed, punch output, stamina, and the heavier punches(jabs) the harder it is to overcome the height and reach differential.
