Valuev Won That Fight!

[ElTerribleMorales]

Have you not seen the fight? How can you even make realistic comments?

how is it unrealistic? Valuev is only somewhat effective from far, he can't fight inside to save his life, and him being 7'2 gave Haye more than enough body to hack away at, but he didn't, both guys tonight were losers, only Valuev was a bit worse

Well if you'd seen the fight and weren't just speculating you'd have seen Valuev had his elbows tucked into the body which left a gap for jabs to the body that Haye landed quite reguarly!

Haye's a strong guy, Valuev isn't, Haye could have easily done a Cotto/Branco and banged on Valuev's arms and force him to try and attack, giving him more openings, don't see how you can really consider this a huge win, and i've seen most of the fight already, just finished up to round 5 before the Angulo fight, and it's a bigger version of Dirrell/Froch, i'm not saying Haye shouldnt of gotten the win, but he didn't really look impressive in doing it, he looked very average and very beatable from what ive seen so far

Not saying it's a huge win, but Haye is growing into the division and no-one has looked great against Valuev. His size makes him an awkward customer.

Haye did what was needed to beat the Beast. I thought he would have been more aggressive but he got the win by not risking anything and not letting Valuev get close enough to hold him and lean 320lbs onto Haye which would have been detrimental to his fatigue!
