who do you want to win wlad or haye?

[erics44]

I want haye to win because I think it will liven things up in the hws a bit and i will have at least one more hw title fight to look forward to (and i love the big boxing nights )

[CFH]

Interesting question... I'm not sure to be honest.

If Wlad wins, I think it puts an exclamation point on what has been a dominant HW reign. However, it would mean that the two best fighters in the division were still not fighting each other and I think it would result in the perpetuation of a dull, uninteresting division until Wlad retired; then it would be a dull, uninteresting division completely devoid of talent.

If Haye wins it will shake up a division that no one really cares about, and on the surface at least I think a Haye victory is best for boxing. However, if he just wins and retires, or if he wins and goes back to fighting the Audley Harrison's and John Ruiz's of the world, it won't really be any different than if Wlad had won...

In typing this out, I've discovered that I'm of the opinion that - while this is a very compelling fight - I don't think much will change regardless of who wins.

I'll probably cheer for Wlad because I dislike the way Haye carries himself and most of his most vocal supporters, but what I'm really hoping for is that we'll see a great fight that will result in a massive rematch and some legitimate, potentially long-term interest being brought back to the HW division (which IMO is highly unlikely).

Wlad. It would prove a bit more that there was a dominant HW after Lewis and such defeat coupled with the defeat of Adamek vs Vitali (even though Adamek is one of my favorite boxer at the moment) could lead to a Adamek-Haye fight, which I asked Santa for the past 2 years.

I want Haye to win just cannot see it happening however.

[skel1983]

I want to make myself want Haye to win, but I just can't Wlad for me whoever wins for me is not a big deal to how I feel, but I am deffo cheering Wlad on.

[Rantcatrat]

Hey erics, what do you think Haye will do to enliven the heavyweight division other than trash-talking?

[gramm]

Wlad. It would prove a bit more that there was a dominant HW after Lewis and such defeat coupled with the defeat of Adamek vs Vitali (even though Adamek is one of my favorite boxer at the moment) could lead to a Adamek-Haye fight, which I asked Santa for the past 2 years.

We have the same wish list. adamek vs haye is one of my top dream fights right now.

[awdleyfuturehalloffamer]

Even though i'm not a fan of Vlad's fighting style, i still think he'll win. The only way Haye has a chance is if he has a speed advantage. He'll probably circle all night and potshot in once in awhile for a flurry, but that's about it. Probably will bore the hell out of me. There's always the lucky punch. You never know if Vlad's chin is holding up. It has been for awhile, but it could get weak again.

[Andre]

Dont care ,but as usual in that situation, im going for the underdog and the upset.

[El Kabong]

I'm sure I've missed my share...I'm just making certain all you guys know where I stand before the fight happens so you've got no answer for when I tell you "I told you so"

[Hornfinger]

Changed my mind now. I want wlad to win.

If he get's beaten by Haye, Wlad vs Chisora might not happen, and I think we're all desperate for that one to happen.

[mrbig1]

I want Haye to win. I'm not saying he will. I'm just tired of the K boys fighting the bum of the month club.

[Mars_ax]

That's easy, Wlad, because instead of having a somewhat boring, but legit HW champion, he'd be replaced with a childish, moronic, condescending, clown. But thankfully July 3rd, Wlad will still be the HW champion and Haye can "retire", and devote himself to his dream of being a gay porn star.

[Pavlik]

Wlad, more humble.

[boxingbantz]

I'll be cheering on Wlad on the night. No doubt. As Skel said, I wish I wanted Haye to win, but I don't. I like how Wlad conducts himself, I actually like watching him box and would take great delight in seeing Haye on the floor, looking dazed and confused, after all of his bullshit over the past couple of years.
