Most pathetic/disappointing championship performance ever?

[IamInuit]

Briggs vs the White poodle.

Wlad vs. Haye wasn't the worst i've seen, but it wasn't only Haye that was pathetic, Wlad never let his hands go, and fought like he was afraid of getting knocked out the whole fight, that was also disappointing.

Wlad won the fight, won every damn round as a matter of fact, and you complain? Haye ran, Wlad would get him cornered or in range and HAYE would rush in a clinch and fall down claiming fouls. Hard to KO someone that's always running away yet has some dangerous weapons....Haye had no sack but dangerous speed and power. Wlad fought smart and won easily. Wlad's not exactly Bruce Seldon.

We both know Wlad was content to go the safest route to a ud in this supposed 'grudge match'.

Both men talked like the other was going home in an ambulance, but neither even tried to deliver on it. A let down from both fighters... More so Haye, but Wlad too (though to be fair he did exactly what was expected of him and fought as usual)

Everyone has forgot and likley blocked from their minds, the huge efford of the one and only Henry Akinwande!

What's wrong with it? How exactly is it "pathetic" and/or "disappointing" Frustrating for some maybe, but you know what you're getting with Wlad...it's like you guys go to an ice cream shop ask for vanilla, get the vanilla, then complain that there's no special extra stuff added to it...it's vanilla, you ordered it you should be aware of what you're getting.

Wlad fought the way he was supposed to, seemed to me Wlad planned for Haye to attack him...had Haye done that then we probably would have seen a KO in Wlad's favor...but Haye ran which is NOT what most expected...and then he blamed it all on his little toe ....poor little toe

For what it's worth I believe Haye did win a couple rounds on the judges scorecards. I do however agree that it wasn't easy for Wlad to to catch David 'Hare'. Wlad (as usual) fought way too tentative, much of the time he'd back Haye into the ropes/corner, and then just fucking stare at him, and not throw punches. It was like he was scared to death of gassing, getting countered or KTFO by a crusierweight.

For chris sakes Wlad, here was the pretentious fucking clown that had been insulting you and your family the last 2 years. Show some stones, put some hurt on the muther-fucker and knock him into next week. It was a pathetic performance by Haye, but considering the magnitude of the fight and everything that had gone down prior to fight night, Wlad's performance was disappointing.
