I'm worried that after all the incessant posturing and hype, some "Murphy's Law-esque" event will come up and bite the fight in the ass. Fight ends 'cause of a foul..... someone twists his ankle and the fight is over....... an accidental headbutt ends the proceedings....... you name it. The ring collapses and the fighters are injured....... whatever. I want a GOOD fight, damn it. I want both Wlad and Haye to rise to the occasion, and make the fight worth the damn wait.

Oh wait..... how could I forget another and a very likely scenario? Geeeeeeez..... I hope it's not another Wlad-Sultan borefest, with Haye avoiding Wlad's power shots and Wlad pawing like an idiot the whole fight. That would be the biggest bummer of all.

That being said, and if they come to fight, I don't think Haye will be able to avoid Wlad's bombs throughout the whole fight, and will eventually get caught.
That's a very real possibility, or another Wlad vs Eddie Chambers type snoozer without the KO at the end. I don't however believe that Haye's defensive skills or chin are as good as Chambers'.

Wlad has shown he's not above taking the safe route to the "W" (see: Sultan fight). So a lot depends on Haye. Will he press the action? Will he be content to take safe pot shots from the outside, and hope for a lucky shot? I'm looking to Haye to back up his bravado and make a fight out of it...... win or lose.
