Who has the game plan to beat Vitali Klitschko?

[Nameless]

From what I saw tonight Haye would outbox Vitali using speed and movement to a clear UD.

Course it might look different if your in the ring with him but I saw nothing that would bother Haye too much apart from the KO shots, which i think Haye could avoid.

I think more that Haye's face slowly burst like a pizza in the microwave and he receives the big bang around the 8th. I really don't see him winning against Vitali in any way possible. Haye doesn,t have the skills or stamina at HW to fight a 6.8 towering monster.

I think Haye would be the only one with a shout though. There is no way you can KO Vitali and I think footspeed is something that would be key to the fight. Vitali likes to get out of there as soon as he lands one, thats where Haye would have to be scoring his points and get off on his bike. If he got caught by Vitali I think it would be an early night, but I definatly think that if he can avoid those punches and keep a focus for 12 rounds you never know what could happen.

However, I dont think a fighter can keep away from Vitali for 12 rounds though, but out of any other heavyweight Haye is the only one who would have a good go. Nobody with their styles would beat Vitali, nobody.

If sosnowski can get to round 10, then surely Haye can too.

I don't see any fighter having more than a slim chance against Vitali. He uses his size very well. Then add the fact that he is very strong and has an iron chin. Any fighter today would have to get in and out using angles and hope to outbox Vitali. So I give Adamek the best look against this big heavyweight roadblock.

[Hunter]

The problem is trying to get past the Klitschko jab and the height advantage (which the brothers use to a T). It is easier said than done. Only another tall defensive fighter like Lewis was able to get in with big shots it seems. Haye is much to small to trouble either Klitschko and wont be able to walk through the storm to land any significant shots. If he gets around the jab he will have to watch for the straight right and left hook.

I'd rather see Haye fight Wladimir.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Basically you gotta have a reliable chin, a decent reach and most importantly really good legs. Serena Williams has all three.

No seriously, VK only seems interested in fighting guys who plod or are very stationary.

I dont think Haye has a chance against Vitali , Haye chin would be exposed

It did last 10 rounds because Vitali chose to let him to, often he finishes his rounds after the sixth, starting slowly and gradually pulverizing his opponents. After I looked the fight, I am convinced he just took his time as he had a couple of chances earlier but decided to go slow on the decay process.

What you mean a Klitschko took forever getting rid of a mediocre opponent

I'll say it now, I think Haye beats Vitali, and he'll do it by stoppage. There's little signs that Vitali is slipping, and whilst he might get away with it against an overweight Arreola/Gomez and prospects/bums in Johnson & Sosnowski, he won't against an athletic younger man. Wladimir will absolutely cream Haye though.

Vitali often took his time to wear down his opponents, this time was no exception and Snowy showed that he's able to get good punches and keep going. I don't Haye has the shadow of a chance against neither of them, especially if he can get snap down by a washed off Barrett. If ever this fight happen, I'll gladly take a signature bet against you :P

[Andrew73]

My game plan would be to wait until Vitali is 48 years old, then maybe outwork him then.

[ross]

I remember this as clear as day. Why wasnt it a knockdown!!

Also, if only Sanders had spent his time training rather than playing golf I reckon hed have beaten Vitali. Neither of them seem to be able to handle speed.

Vitali gets that stupid wide eyed, blinky and open mouthed look when he feels Sanders power

[rjj tszyu]

I've always thought that Haye has more chance against Wlad than Vitali, but now after watching Vitali labour to victory against someone who Haye would have out in 3 rounds, I have totally changed my mind. Haye's speed would give that version of Vitali nightmares and I really don't think Vitali could catch Haye clean at all.

I think Haye will sign to fight Vitali now and then defend against his mandatory (providing he does beat Vitali) and then in 18 months from now fight Wlad for the unification of the titles.

Vitali is past his best and he knows it. He isn't anywhere near as athletic as he used to be (see the Sanders video) so although he can probably take more of a hit now, he would be too slow for Haye.

Haye so nearly had Valuev, a man mountain who had never been wobbled, so I've no doubt his accuracy and power would be too much for Vitali.

Would Vitali Klitchso embaressed Ruiz in the manner Haye did? Cleary not.
