    Ali-Frazier 3 is a close fight.
    Pac-JMM 2 is a close fight.
    Ali-Norton 2 and 3 are close fights.
    De La Hoya-Quartey is a close fight.
    Morales-Barerra 1 is a close fight.

    Wlad-Haye is not a close fight. A close fight would mean that if Haye got the decision almost no one would complain. But in this case if Haye got a decision yesterday, it would be called an outright robbery for Wlad and would be up there with Whitaker-Ramirez 1.

    Look quite a few of his fans wanted Haye to win and I understand that, but let's not be delusional.

    I think it was a close fight, but not a fight that you could say he won.

    A lot of fight fans call a close fight that could have went 7-5 either way, a robbery. When a robbery is an 8-4 or 7-3 fight that goes to the other guy.

    So I'd say it was a close fight but there's no way you could give it to the other guy.

    yep I think we will see Haye v Vitali

    Those brothers want him knocked out for sure. Unfortunately Vitali doesn't have a weak chin to give haye a chance so he would have to outbox him. Like thats going to happen....


    Wlad by 5 maybe about right for Saturday. In Haye's defence I will say that I never expected him to look as fresh after 12 rounds.

    What could he do different in a rematch.....
