Anybody know the UK start time of the fight?

Sky start at 8pm.

Top of the bill Germany noramlly starts around 9.30 for us. So around that time must be a pretty solid bet

i am supposed to be out in manchester saturday night but really wanna stay in & watch the fight, decisions decisions

Haye has the Evander blueprint to follow and he has more speed and power but he has nowhere near the experience of Evander or the class/patience.

Evanders focus went a long way to him executing that gameplan but I question if Haye can do the same. Hayes not had that many fights and he hasnt fought many big men. Not only that but Evander had an amazing chin. Hayes been floored and stopped by cruisers.

Styles make fights so if Haye feels all he has to do is copy what Evander did then he is in for a shock. He may have to dig deep and box out of his comfort zone unlike Evander.

I actually think Haye should be the first to stop Valuev. If not, he'll win a wide decision as long as he doesn't gas. I'm not as sold on Haye as some people, but I have a very low opinion of Valuev.

[porkypara]

I think the biggest danger for Haye in this fight is him running out of steam in the latter rounds and getting stopped.


I am sure Valuev's team will know the most likely tactics Haye will use(hit and move) and have got there man working on cuting down the ring and forcing Haye to fight at a pace he is not comfortable with by walking him down.


I voted for Haye and I hope he wins but would not be supprised to see the big Russian win.

I think Hairy Beast will knockout Haye. There are 2 scenarios that could happen and that is Valuev coming out guns blazing and catches a surprised Haye early or he uses his height and weight and wears down Haye for a late round ko. Either way Sasquatch wins it.

I’m not a Haye fan but I really, really hope he’ll send “Bigfoot” into retirement.

[ono]

I think he'll either gas out or get impatient. Then i reckon he'll get caught. (haye by the way)

Stupid fight to take imo.

Haye all the way for me and if he could knock him down it would be good to see if he goes through the ring and if he stops him it will send out a statement to the heavyweights.

not really, Ruiz who's hardly a big puncher already dropped the Sasquatch, and an old Holyfield already should have gotten a W against him as well, so if anything, if Haye doesn't beat Valuev, it pretty much proves he's all hype

agreed, like i said, Ruiz of all people dropped him, not too much goin on there

You should seriously be employed by a US boxing authority as some kind of spin doctor

You could convince the entire world that the best heavyweight in the world is Cris Byrd and that evander holyfield beat lennox lewis twice!!

is that meant to be tongue in cheek??

If not your completely being unfair here, ruiz, holyfield and chagaev all dealt with his heighth advantage. Why shouldnt haye?

ummm no it proves he sucks ass, cause a guy who started his career in the same division as him, only 15 years earlier, who has about the same build and is half an inch shorter than him, also add in that he's 18 years older than him, outboxed Valuev and made him look like a fool, so don't come with the BS excuses
