David Haye vs Vitali Klitschko Poll

you are right.Vitali has 10 time chin that his brother have,and he is willing to trade. Haye is gonna get really hurt Yeah Vitali has a good chin but he hasnt been hit in anger in years and was not fully tested against Peter, I am still not sure that the long layoff has not had an effect on him.

vitali quited agaisnt chris byrd lol, imagine what haye will do to him Imagine what Haye would do? Well Seeing as the "Byrd" fight was a total one sidded beating given out by Vitali until his leg(shoulder?) acted up and HE had it stopped cause he couldnt get around on it. Byrd did nothing but get hit for as long as the fight was going on. Im sure Haye is also capable of getting his ass kicked and preying for Vitali to become injured again. But Haye is such shit, that he will get koed far too early to even see if Vitalis knee/shoulder holds up. Haye wont do a god damn thing.

Haye cant outbox Vitali. He cant hurt Vitali. Vitali CAN outbox Haye and CAN KO him with one shot. Haye has been koed by someone who cant punch half as hard as Vitali. Haye had a punchers chance against Wlad, he wont against an ironed chin Vitali. Vitali will beat him badly and enjoy every sadistic minute of it. Vitali by 4th round KO, or earlier if he wants to take mercy on Haye.

Haye KO. Y'all are making a big mistake talking about chins, power, reach and such, though ;) I can see it now. Vitali loses to Haye and retires. Wlad beats Haye in family revenge match in the biggest HW fight since the Thrilla in Manilla. The cash from both the fights is split three ways. Result, Wlad becomes undisputed champ. Haye get so rich as a promoter he employs Don King as his chauffeur and Frank Warren as his butler, and on the back of a huge election fund Vitali becomes President of Ukraine. Sorted. All that aside my head says Vitali has to be a strong favourite, but I still have a feeling Haye will pull off the upset. Either way, I can't see it going beyond six rounds. Vitalis power is more of a DAMN that hurts power than one punch KO power which is going to make for a boring fight once Vitali lands a a jab that leaves Hayes head throbbing Haye fights defensive until rd 8 when Vitali finally catches up to him and KOs him. From the look on Hayes face after Vitali nudged him he might already be shook.

Unlike his brother Wladimir, Vitali seems to have a much stronger chin, he also seems to be more aggressive and less cautious. As far as speed, I'll give it to Haye, as far as power, Vitali is definitely more powerful. I'm pretty sure Haye will be able to land some good shots here and there, but I think Vitali can take them. Haye, on the other hand, won't be able to take Vitali's shots in my opinion. With more power, more experience, and a strong chin, Vitali is a clear favorite. I am predicting a KO by Vitali. Yes.What he said ^. Besides that, Vitali is likely the far smarter fighter.

its a shame haye could have been a real saviour for the division. imo the fight has come too soon and haye will know it halfway through. i wouldn't completely count him out but vitali is one tough cookie and hayes power isn't something vitali hasn't seen before. whereas vitalis strength and heavy hands are something david hasn't experienced before.

June, damn what a long wait The most annoying thing about it will be 6 months of Wlad Owns saying china chin hype job Haye will be exposed by Vitali.

Big Puncher with a Great Chin VS Big puncher with a Glass Chin Vitali will KO Haye in 3 rounds

Lets not forget size. By far the biggest man Haye will have ever come across. Biggest puncher too. Haye, a guy who never likes to keep his lead hand up, is just asking to be jabbed to death by the taller vitali. I can't see haye posing any threat if he fights his typical fight. He would have to show up a different fighter otherwise he loses decisively IMO. Haye isn't a small man by any means, but he squats in his stance losing 4 or more inches of his height, handing vitali even more of a height advantage. Hes never had to punch "up" to reach his target like he will with vitali, so unless his plan is to work the body (i've never see anyone implement a body attack against either of the klits) then he doesnt land anything clean. He plays games with his lead hand. He lets it hang low the majority of the fight. Both Wlad and Vitali get jabs in even when the lead hand is held high and tight, haye makes access all the more easiar. Size is an advantage for Vitali but Haye has always done well against tall fighters he has always said he does better against tall men, he KO'd European cruiserweight champ Gurov who is 6ft 6in in just 1 minuet, and Gurov is a solid fighter.

Yeah I agree, I am backing Haye partly because I am a fan and I also think Vitali was effected a bit more by the layoff than some people think, Peter was not really able to test Vitali where as Haye will give it a go, should be an interesting fight. Shame its 6 months away though.

Big Puncher with a great chin VS Big Puncher with a glass chin Vitali will KO Haye in 3 rounds

Vitali by late KO. Against Wlad he would have had a good chance, but Vitali is just the wrong matchup for Haye. He is way too tough. He can withstand Haye's biggest shots and keep on coming. The same cannot be said for David.

No hate posts on either side please what are your predictions for this fight. Haye will fight Vitali in June possibly for the WBC title or if the WBC force a fight with Gomez Vitali will vacate to fight Haye. Now I realise most people will vote for Vitali and I agree he will be favourite but Vitali hasn’t been tested since his layoff and hasn’t faced anyone with Hayes speed or power for some time, the biggest question mark over the fight is will Haye be able to avoid Vitali's punches and be able to take the ones that land, If he can I think he has a good chance. I’m picking Haye by UD but I am not stupid and I realise Vitali will likely win. And on a side note I seriously hope Vitali doesn’t get injured in training again. I argee with your point about speed but i don't think haye can take his punches for 12 rounds, so klitschko by KO.
