Is Haye a difficult fighter to beat?

For me, Haye's main problems are: 1) Limited punch output - he has no jab and doesn't throw much, activity alone can win Wlad rounds in this fight. 2) Chin? - still questions there plus no doubt Wlad has the power to drop Haye or wobble him. 3) Stamina - Big big issue probably his worst attribute imo, he gets carried away sometimes and goes head hunting throwing absolute bombs, he looks puffed out mid-late rounds and it will be even worse with someone like Wlad jabbing and grabbing him all night. I agree with these 3 problems, but don't forget 4) his low hanging arms (= no defence) which he tries to substitute with erratic upper body movement.

Wlad will have more problems with Haye than his previous opponents true. BUT, at the same time the best way to nulify Haye's threat is to keep pumping out a stiff jab and that's exactly what Wlad will do. Whilst i'd like to see Haye win i do think he is seriously limited as a fighter, his power has carried him through some of his fights.

Prime Vitaly murders Haye!

A fighter with a good chin and ko punch would make easy work of Haye but the reason this fight with Wlad is so intriguing is the risk involved of Haye landing a big punch on Wlad's still questionable chin.

I believe that Klitschko's toughest win was against Brock. Although he KO'd him in the 7th for the first 4 rds or so he was hardly able to hit him owing to Brock's defence This is also what the Wlad team said before the fight. They could barely find footage where Brock was actually hit.

I believe that Klitschko's toughest win was against Brock. Although he KO'd him in the 7th for the first 4 rds or so he was hardly able to hit him owing to Brock's defence, which consisted of bending at the waist at the right time and allowing Klitschko's fists to slide over his back. When his jab began to penetrate it was the beginning of the end, and he KO's him with one punch.

The guy who mocks old timers for getting emotional over Ali/Frazier(undefeateds) is giddy as a schoolgirl over Haye/Wlad. LOL

I imagine it will be a fairly straightforward nights work for Wlad to be honest I believe he will be tagged but he won't be affected by it. Haye doesn't hit as hard as you might think at HW.

Of course hes difficult to beat. You have to nail him to the floor almost. I feel Wlad has a better trainer so that gives him a good chance i think. But it wont be easy for Wlad at all.

Haye's use of speed is what will def give Wlad trouble. Its not Ibragamov's predictable speed. Its speed coming from different angles.

Yes i think he's hard to beat, his speed agility and constant movement make him harder to pin down than most heavyweight's also with his power he can punish you after making you miss,
