Disappointed in Hayes performance!

[Fenster]

The reason Haye doesn't go overboard when he hurts someone is Carl Thompson.

He learnt from punching himself out.

It's a positive he now fights like this not a flaw.

I still don't know how Carl Thompson, survived that onslaught from David Haye. I know Carl Thompson had experience in up and down wars. But still that was a hell of a beating, and that was a great performance from Carl Thompson.

But it was a good learning experience from David Haye, and it made him a better fighter. And even if he would of beat Carl Thompson, he would of lost to Giacobbe Fragomeni.

i was supprised on how much Haye got tagged last night and to be honest i remember thinking if that was any of the klits connecting it would be lights out for haye.

maybe i'm just not giving an old Ruiz much credit.

one thing i know is.... if Haye had have finished him in the first that would have sent out a very impressive message and i think that is the frustration mattboxingfan is getting at.

I agree. I'm watching the fight right now (just finished the fourth round) and while Haye has looked extremely impressive offensively (though I wish he'd use his jab a bit more because it was very effective), he's gotten hit by a couple of shots, mostly straight right hands, that could have him in trouble against the Klitschko's. In particular, he got tagged and staggered by a straight right in the first round that could have been devestating from a puncher like Wlad, though he wasn't obviously hurt by the punch. He also looked gassed at the end of the fourth.

Aside from that though, he has looked very good. His speed is impressive and his power seems to be legitimate at HW and overall it was a very good performance.

I like brackets.
