Punches thrown..Rematch to sort this silly mess out

[Spicoli]

"shows Wlad to be a coward"....jeezus flipping hell even for a wind up this is given the worst Pac hugger a run for the money

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

To be fair to David, (and I'm glad Compubox supports what I already knew) he landed more power shots and at a better connection rate.

Also, overall he was only 1% behind on total punches landed. Now when you consider that he landed as many power shots as he did jabs, that's actually not terrible.

Still, I'm very disappointed in David. I'm glad he is not dead but still, I can see he could of done more.

I personally think we'll be seeing a rematch of this fight before the year is out.

No one else for wlad to fight, and definatley no one that will give him the pay day haye will.

Haye landed 1 punch in the 10th round, 1 punch. and an average of 6 punches a round. What a joke. How could Wlad possibly do anything if Haye is just running away the whole time. Man talk about delusional fans, you must have a pathetic life if you still hold up Haye as a true champion after he basically sold out all of his fans. All those fans that were chanting at the weigh in and during the fight must feel like total idiots. hahaha They spent a good dollar on traveling to support Haye, trying to show support and he didnt even try to win. what a slap in the face.

[Hornfinger]

I know I've said it in another thread but maybe it needs to be said again. If haye only landed a punch in the 10th, who was it that bust wlads nose in the 2nd or 3rd?

[Otley]

Mayb thats why Haye went thru with the fight so he wouldn't let the fans down...all them 1000's wouldn't of got their money back if he had backed out due to the toe...u know what bring Wlad over to the UK and if he gets a slight cold he can back out and it would only affect 100 Wlad traveling fans...how about that!!!

job biscuit (Haye went thru with it not 100 percent but thought that was all he needed...next time Wlad will be in trouble)!!!

eh eh!!!

I agree and even if he has a lame excuse then its still an excuse.

have never had a broken toe so no idea what it does to your balance etc ?

And with all thst gone on thers no way he could have pulled out is therte - would never have lived it down

Its called dodging punches sir. Haye "ran" less in this fight then he did against Valuev.

Horrible over exaggeration that you continually repeat

[AdamGB]

I'm outta here. This is what happens when nationalism and sports go together, you have some delusional people.

Wlad won, instead of going with what ifs and lame ass excuses with refs, toe inuries, etc.

Wlad won, was the better heavy on the night and just seemed to have too good a jab and too much physicality.

But don't be stupid... talking about and debating the whats and ifs of what went on is part of following the sport.

Far too many weekend boxing fans got caught up in the hype and thought they'd be watching a Rocky film.

[captainanddew]

I've watched the fight twice. Compubox's numbers are accurate. haye's activity rate was pathetic and dropped quite a bit after Wlad landed his best right hand in round 5. Haye basically punted from then until rounds 11 and 12. He was content to move and not be hit.

[Spicoli]

This isn't amateur boxing and way to much is ballyhooed about HBO's punch numbers and percentages. If you were to count a punch every time big mouthed Lampley yelled BIG RIGHT HAND on a miss I suppose we'd all be well over in the fiction vs reality department in most fights. Fear the day when judges look to clickers and bean counters as opposed to the physical big picture and cause & effect of punches and clear body language to determine an outcome or the story of a fight. You want a bean counter that looks at a punch= a punch= a punch and its all vanilla, watch the Olympics.

[AdamGB]

Amateur boxing's scoring is bollocks... You land a half arsed jab? one point... you perfectly time and deliver a massive punch and knock your opponent down? one point.

If you've been working past a light jab to get in and land that shot then you want to hope that the punch was concussive enough to knock them out or that you have plenty of time left to finish them off when they get back up.

Or else all you've probably done is wasted 2-3 points getting through their jab to earn a measly point and a further 10 seconds which you could have used to get those points back.

Hey David is like dirrells older bigger brother, just run and run

That is exactly, right. Dirrell was just more effective at it.

The bottom line is that Haye isn't a good heavyweight. Two of his five fights at heavyweight were horrible, dreadful affairs. Two of the other fights were against Valuev and Barrett. You got to hand it to him though, for a guy who's top moment in the sport was knocking out Enzo Mac or scraping by with a points win over Valuev, he's just made $15M and has done pretty damn well for himself. Does he have the weakest resume of anyone who has ever fought for $15M?
