perhaps it's the gut reaction for a close fight, but this is the HW division, boys. these aren't dudes the size of your GF (nishi and donaire, for example,)

yall been conditioned with the last few years of hbo and showitme not covering the HW, and the guys in the HW division not being aggressors.

when these guys connect with big punches the fight starts to end.

4-8 rounds is when this one will end. no later.

who thought Haye-Wlad would go the distance ?

that's right

i just re-watched, and this is not true I'm afraid

Mitchell grabbed twice, and he was still getting hit, he was not covering up well, and he didn't move his head and upper body like he should have

when he went back to his corner, he was still wobly

I mean the HWT champion is virtually unknown in North America and when he fights very few people in North America watch.

I know this is a sore subject with you but I think we can only discuss this if you are willing to be honest about the current HWT division.

The media also plays a big part of this, no matter how "good" the division is, it is partly caused by the ignorance of the American media who ignore foreign fighters who are dominating the heavyweight division, granted if the champ would be American, many more people would know him even if the division wasn't any better.

you're comparing mitchell and arreola to wlad - haye?

the possiblity that the wlad and haye fight would be low contact was there. the expectation was for haye to get hit more with the jab and not be strong enough to take it, but he was able to take away. they weren't expected to go to war by anybody who knows boxing

the only thing the two fights have in common are knockout power from all four fighters.

did you vote for a decision ,

?

Wlad and Haye both have shaky chins and great power = almost nobody thought it would go the distance. I know Arreola and Mitchell are come forward fighters, but it is not totally out of the question this fight could go the distance.

And no, I didn't vote for a decision, as I didn't vote at all in fact. If I had voted, I would have picked Arreola by KO.

Make the fight happen. The U.S. needs a good heavyweight bout.

i don't wanna say it but arreola would be the favorite (to win by tko). but i'm a big fan of mitchell, met him earlier this year, so i'd be rooting for him on this one. this HW matchup def isn't going the distance regardless of who you're rooting for.
