Why not, Haye takes out Wlad in less than four

[AdamGB]

How do you feel Haye can stop Wlad from beating him with the jab? He is great at countering over the jab, but Wlad is equally good at not getting countered.

Also I think Wlad gets a bad wrap, people used to feel he was too eager and left himself open which he did considering his bad chin. Should he not at all costs stop people from punching him? I think he tried the first time around to be the great champion everyone wanted him to be, but he doesn't ahve the chin for that. WIth his new style he is still effective, and when he knows he can take a punch like agianst Thompson he definitely will take a shot to land one.

I agree to an extent, but I think he should be able to assert himself more whilst still avoiding getting hit. What he did to Sultan for the majority of their fight went well beyond boxing clever.

Exactly. Sultan was too small to get close and Wlad could have finished it, but instead opted against and decided to bore the fans. Haye has been saying both Klitschko's are a joke but on that I disagree. I have the utmost respect for Vitali. He is a true champion. Wlad is there for the taking though.

Did Klitschko not win every round against a guy who could give Haye a really tough fight? Ibragimov got silver in the olympics, he is has good speed, boxing skills, he's southpaw, has decent power, and is only an inch shorter than Haye. It was Wlad's speed and ability to dictate range that made Ibragimov so ordinary.

I'm feelin a Haye win inside a very short distance too OumaFan. Speed kills, that was what mike tyson was always taught by cus, and Haye has the speed with the power to stop Wlad. I witnessed something on saturday that involved a bigger man, and i was convinced he'd have too much. I now have much more respect for the speed and the timing of a so called smaller man.

[TheDemolitionDan]

Speed kills and size isn't what it seems to be. We have all witnessed this with all kinds of fights and fights of this year in particular.

Hatton (size) Pacquiao (speed)
Margarito (size) Mosley (speed)
Diaz (size) Marquez (not really known for his speed, but you get my point the bigger man lost)

These have been the three biggest fights of the year thus far. Power has lost all three times. My mind has been set, I'm going with Haye in the upset.

Here's Haye at Heavyweight against number 11 ranked Bonin. He looked a lot better here then he did against Barrett.

Why doesn't he use that jab more?

One thing for sure, if he keeps his left hand so low against Wlad, it'll be a very short night.

Anyone know who Haye is sparring with?

And this would make a reat 24/7 HBO series. They should do it quickly!

[Gandalf]

I hope Haye does it but I have a hard time seeing it. Wlad will not be looking to knock out Haye despite what he says. He will work the jab and try to bank rounds by doing the minimal work he can. It's all about Haye managing to get around the jab and land clean on Wlad which is not easy because Wlad can be very safety first. Especially against a puncher like Haye.

Hopefully, Wlad loses the plot and we get a war, but if not it could be a long nights work for Haye.

[El Kabong]

I think Wladimir SAYS he'll drag Haye around for 12 rounds and KO him at the end....I think Wladimir is going to try and use some mind games of his own and KO Haye early.

I will be disapointed if Wlad KOs haye in early rounds. Imo he should/must punish/torture Haye for 11 rounds and put him out of his misery in 12.

Haye's main sparring partner is David Price, a 6 foot 8 heavyweight olympic medalist recently turned pro from Liverpool.

Oh yeah...Haye fukking bomb's Bitchsko out in 2 rounds.

[USA LOVES THE KLITSCHKOS]

Haye takes out Wlad in less than four LOL only if Wlad comes in with a cast on his left arm a patch on his right eye and his BAC is .30. Be for real Haye is the same chump that got put on his ass by a little French man (Jean Marc Mormeck) nothing has changed but Haye's weight and mouth size. And I don't see where he's so fast except to run his riff raff mouth. And I don't think he deserves a shot at any HW title, he should fight his way up like the other CWs that moved to HW in the past. Ohhhh and I feel, no I know Ibragimov would have out worked and KO'd the mouth. peace out mofo

[Violent Demise]

Haye goes to sleep ala Ricky Hatton.
