We all know Vitali will be by Wlads side at the weigh-in and in his corner at fight night. Will this get to Haye psychologically?
I have even heard Vitali goes into the opponents dressing room whilst their hands are getting taped and stares them down. Will Haye be effected by this at all?
Translation Vit has a chin. Little bro....Not so much.
The only difference is that Vitali's chin is 3 inches higher.
I think Vitali is the weaker bro at this point in their careers. He wins fights on pure intimidation and reputation now.
I'd say Vitali is definitely the physically tougher one, but Wlad is much more skillful, to be honest both guys put a severe beating on him.
Vitali in his return has averaged 700 punches a fight.
He has WAY too much volume for haye, who had stamina issues throughout his career
Even in those interviews he told him that he'll beat them both without hesitation. He's not scared of Vit either. That post fight was after he topped out at cruiser. He had to butter him up a little bit to get the fights lined up.
Obviously hes going to say he'll win. But whree are the insults? Suddenly they are brilliant instead of 1 dimensional and 'the best in the world' instead of boring and fighting bums.
His tone is entirely different around Vitali.
I don't think so. Haye seems confident IMO, if that's true or not will probably be revealed on July 2nd. I reckon Vitali will jump David if he would KO Wladimir though. :D
Nah. If Vitali fights Haye he'd be, what, 40 by the time they met in the ring? I know a lot has been said about Haye ducking the "tougher" older brother, but to me Wlad is still in his prime and will be the tougher opponent for Haye.

I posted a few videos of how Haye acts when around VItali. He calls the Klits "the best heavyweights in the world" and "brilliant" when around Vitali - but tries to tarnish their names when around Wlad. It leads me to believe that Haye is genuinely only putting on a front to get into Wlads head.. or he either respects or is afraid of Vit.
I think there's enough evidence, judging by hayes demeanor around Vitali; to assume Vits presence may have a big impact.
