Can't wait. It's gonna be weird watching a legit heavy weight bout, it's been a LONNNNNGGGGG time......
When was the last time 2 hard punchers at real heavyweight (200x2) in their primes had a unification bout before Wlad came along?
Never:

Can't wait.
I think there are going to be a lot of hurt ego's come 2nd of July in regard to Wlad fans.
I am no way near a Haye fan but the guy is a lot better boxer then Wlad. How many times has Wlad been down now 15 or so? That is a lot. If he was around in the Tyson/Lewis era he would of been retired long ago. The division is so weak and the guy's he has chosen to fight make him look a lot better then he really is.
Haye is not amazing. He is not one of the best heavyweights of all time. But he is more like what they used to be. Guy's who were allround fighters. Rather then fat, slow guys looking for one punch.
Wlad's strength is his jab, but beyond that he has nothing. At some point he is going to get tagged by Haye and i can see him crumbling after that. When he is up against it and taking punches he doesn't know what to do. Look at Chambers and Sanders fights and see how he is when he get's hit. He becomes open and can't recover. If you got a guy like Haye who has very fast speed and a brutal right hand having free shots at your head you are going to go down.
I can see Haye coming out and being very defensive, like Mayweather, on the back foot and looking for counters. Taking points by avoiding being hit and frustrating the other guy. The more that goes on the more i think Wlad will start to get annoyed and lose his cool. Start to become more open and a lot slower. At that point i see Haye taking him out. We have seen it so many times in the past with power vs speed matches.
As far as i am concerned when the fight is over and "if" Haye wins then the Klitchsko fans will have to eat a lot of humble pie. Haye has sacrificed a lot to take this fight, it was all Wlad. Fight in his technical home country with 40000 supporters vs 10000 for Haye, Coming to the ring 2nd, chosing the corner, chosing the gloves, chosing the hotels, 50-50 split even though Haye brings a **** load more money to it then him, being billed as the main guy in the promoting/advertising, chosing the referee, have his own doctor at ringside etc etc. If those demands were the other way around then the fight would not happen. So respect to Haye for agreeing to them.
If he beats Wlad then there will be no excuses.
I see Haye taking him out in round 8 or 9. This won't go the distance that is for sure!
can't wait
I bet wlads gonna keep haye waiting in the ring for 10-15 minutes then lights ll go out n a video ll play with wlad saying hayes finally gonna get punished etc then he'll come out... like vitali an solis.. and vtialis gonna be staring down haye in the face off in the ring as well.. atmospheres gonna be insane
This fight will kill off 50% of boxing scene's user base. Can't wait.
Haha, not only BS.
Also ESB.
All the articles mentioning Haye have 300+ comments.
It's unbelievable.
Ive never watched a stream before. I leave it to the last minute usually. I dont even know the time difference between Germany and England. If its showing locally in a pub or something that is an option.
I'll send you a PM, the fight should start just over 10PM UK time so i think that's 11PM German time.
I'm cool to it at the moment, but I only really get excited a day or two before an event anyway. I'm disappointed really. This fight had the potential to be a barnburner, but procrastination, pull outs, farcial title fights and a string of uninteresting and repetitive trashtalking when no fight was forthcoming have gradually eroded my goodwill to the point that I just want to see it over and done with. I'm ordering the PPV (with some friends) and betting about a hundred quid that Wlad wins, but I can't get over the hollow feeling that this fight could have been so much more.
Hoping for a decent performance from both men, that's all.
Are you not watching a stream? or going to a mates or the pub?. Surely you want to watch this fight.

I wont be able to watch as i havent got sky, or cable or whatever you call it, and i havent got tickets. Is it on radio anywhere?
But yes im looking forward to it as its been a long time coming since haye wore that shirt. Been talked about for as long and Pac and Floyd nearly.

you have a pc though, you need a stream? pm me..
or you won't be near one when the fight is taking place?
haye definitely fears wlad.. surely even hayes biggest backers cant deny that?
Sure he might be a bit scared its only natural, but Haye knows what he himself can do as well to Wlad.

I'm looking forward to the fight and I'm not fussed who wins aslong as its entertaining. However from monday I'm going to try and stop myself from reading/watching British media as journalists who don't know anything about boxing will crawl out of the wood work to brown nose Haye and make him out to be the greatest heavyweight in history.
