Congratulations David Haye. Magnificent effort. Fact.

[Fenster]

This ain't a "wind-up" thread.

Haye was meant to be DESTROYED. Did that happen? NO. So all the "experts" have a thread to come and apologise to Haye.

Lets keep it real. No harm in being proven wrong. Fact.

Well power is generated from the big toe, fact.

You do what you have toe DO

Well power is generated from the big toe, fact.

So true, and without properly working big toe, your power is reduced by at least 75%, fact!

BTW, a damaged big toe can also reduce the size of your cojones by at least 50%, fact!

Magnificent effort? He talked so big about how he would KO Wlad and he ended up like every other guy who fought Wlad over the last few years. He CONSISTENTLY whined to the referee, flopped to the mat like a fish claiming to be pushed, and had absolutely NO answer to Wlad when his "lunging punch" strategy wasn't working.

If you are a Haye fan/Brit and you're proud of this performance, you're delusional. It was a disgrace, and it was yet another bitter reminder why boxing is a dying sport. HUGE hype, TINY show.

I'm with Fenster.

Haye proved that Klitschko is a boring watch. At least David Haye tried to land big shots. HBO would have him stand around and eat punches like the rest of Klitschko's opponents.

The Klitschko boys should fight each other or stay the fuck home.

Well said BoxingGorilla.

Your beard is epic. I'm gonna let my next one grow back like that.

You'll see a good fight from Wlad the day he is challenged. I hope some of the upcoming fighters prove to be the real thing and can give him a fight. What he needs is someone of Lewis' class or better.

It is heartless to demand he fight his brother.

i think the exact opposite, i actually think size had NOTHING to do with it


(i had not expected haye to look so big against klitschko)


klitschkos defense is what eventually set them apart, haye wasnt expecting him to deflect punches as easily as he did, i didnt think haye would do anywhere NEAR as good as he did tho, overall haye did better than most of klitschkos recent opponents, but if u look at what he said (he wouldnt have a boring fight and would go for the KO (and he ended up running away after he KNEW he was already down)) u cant defend his performance



he took klitschkos punches pretty well too

Exactly.

A heroic performance is the only sensible conclusion.

had haye not talked shit about how he was gonna make the fight exciting i dont think hed be getting nearly such negative feedback


he actually managed to make klitschko uncomfortable for a while (and he even made klitschko press the action in the last round)


i guess now all thats left for klitschko is povetkin (tho he will probably fight the british guy first, chisora or something)

[Andre]

I dindt buy the fight,it was 4am here ,havent seen it yet wil have to wait for utube. So whats the talk about about Haye going to ground all the time? What happened with that was he dropping out for time and a split up?

I think he was falling to ground in hope that the ref would take points away and eventually disqualify wlad, haye knew from round 1 it was over, imagine that big strong awkward man in front of you.

Had Haye not talked shit you wouldn't have come back to post.

Shit talk is the way forward. Fact.

First of all, its not about taking punches (especially from a hard hitter), its about hitting and not getting hit but Haye stood right in front of wlad's jab and could not do anything to get away from it.

Wlad is a great boxer and uses the boxing technique which is jabbing and one two's, unlike sugar ray etc who uses the boxing technique in a speedy fashion which looks great.

Wlad boxed Hays head off, slowly but surely.

There was shit all wrong with david hays toe, he was looking for excuses, i mean, he danced and ran around that ring with no problem at all, threw his haymaker but missed.....the toe was fine but his pride was smashed, if your toe is broke you would see some type of sign coming from his corner, but there wasnt.

You lost haye take it on the chin (or should i say FOREHEAD), you could never beat klitchco and you never will.
