Unlikely he'll fold. Haye seems to thrive on hostile/negative crowds, and he'll know he's going to be the bad guy going in here. Wlad's the one who's more likely to fold (not saying he will, but seems the more likely candadate). Personally I hope neither one of them buckles under the pressure, and we have a good fight with guys guys fighting to the best of their abilities.
Wlad is the only superstitious boxer I know when it comes to these matters. He wont even fight in his home city of Kiev because of what Ross Puritty did to him. Hasnt fought in Vegas since being KOd by Brewster. He is a serious head case.
Stadium, City means nothing to Haye. All he needs is a ring and a ref that can count to ten.
I don't think Haye will be affected by the crowd ,his mega ego will love it . What's gonna mess up his head is when he keeps having to get up off the canvas . I believe K is gonna make a statement in this fight and Haye is gonna pay for his big mouth and lack of respect for the HW champion . Looking forward to counting the number of times Haye hits the canvas before he quits or can't get up !
I am really looking foward to this one. I hope wlad comes out more aggressive then usual. I think he needs to ko haye. David Haye is no prize horse. The champ needs to prove he is the man. An early round ko of haye would help. Who the hell is wlad gonna fight after haye?
David Haye is always very relaxed.
One of the best things about him.
Wlad is the one who used to be jittery in the first couple of rounds. And will be again until he starts to land the jab. Haye's chance is to take him out in two rounds.
Am he would fold more due to the left hand jabs and big right hand landing on his face all day rather than the number of people in the attendance.
I agree.
He can't back out now. It would be his 3rd time against the Ks so he pretty much has to get in the ring and "face" whatever happens......
The crowd will just make the whole evening that much more unpleasant for him.
