Haye-Valuev - Who wins? Fact.

[ElTerribleMorales]

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

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.

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!!

They are proven heavyweights.

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

HOLYFIELD-
Age: 47
Height: 6′ 2½″ / 189cm
Reach: 78″ / 198cm

HAYE -
Age: 29
Height: 6′ 3″ / 191cm
Reach: 78″ / 198cm

Not all great cruiserweights make great heavyweights. In fact it's very rare. Ask Lyle.

Holyfield was also the man running the pace of the fight despite being a few years away from his 50th birthday

There are no excuses here, if haye cant do what ruiz, chagaev and a borderliner pensioner could then he indeed is a complete fraud who has wasted everybodys time!!

that has to do more with skill, fighting style, and mindset than it does size, you said it'd be cause he was too small, Holyfield is a fraction of an inch shorter, and he's one of the greatest recent heavies,so don't feed me that bull

And Haye is not. Haye is one of the best recent cruiserweights.

So should Haye lose to a man he is clearly light-years ahead in talent it will be because he is too small. Simple as.

don't know how the hell you figure it has anything to do with him being too small, if Haye ends up being a flop at HW it's cause he wasn't that good to begin with, nothing to do with him being too small, Holyfield ended up being as great as he was cause of his dedication, workrate, and his heart/warrior mentality, he had NO PHYSICAL ADVANTAGES over any of his opponents in terms of size, nutrition is a different story, but hey guess whatever you're smoking is pretty damn strong,

Your really allowing this heighth advantage to get to your head.

Dont believe the press calls that clearly have valuev wearing clogs and haye slippers. The difference is 10 inches, no more, no less

If he loses and bitches about those 10inches that`ll be the david haye we all expect and will no doubt laugh about for years to come. If he loses and accepts he got beat by the better fighter he`ll actually gain some credibility in the wake of losing some

I don't remember Ruiz dropping Valuev either. Of course Valuev's fights with Ruiz and Holyfield I try to block from memory.

From what i do remember (have had therapy since to try and forget) ruiz on several occasions roughed him up particularly in the 1st fight and landed clean hard punches to the FACE with his 6`2 stature

Chagaev just bullied him for 12rounds, completely cut off all space between the 2 and took a comfortable decision

Fight Beat | News

"Ruiz was not credited with a legitimate knockdown when he floored Valuev in the second round. Ruiz blasted Valuev with punches, knocking "The Giant" into the ropes, but the referee incorrectly ruled a slip when Valuev's knee hit the canvas after he careened off of the ropes. Scoring that round would have been different, in Ruiz' favor, if it was ruled a knockdown."
