Disgraceful fight by Haye. He refused to engage and when he got close to Wlad he dropped to the floor like a girl. What on earth was that?
This was the world championship title fight. He fought like he didn't even try to win. Horrendous workrate, just trying to survive and make Wlad look bad, just like Ibragimov. You can't win a fight by feinting without throwing anything!
Haye pissed on the sport, once again ... after doing so before with the Valuev and Harrison fights. Respect to Wladimir for another dominating affair vs. a top 10 man -- although this coward didn't come to fight but that's not Wlad's fault.
He will probably disappear much like Ibragimov did too.Yup I am sure he will. Come to survive, not to fight, collect his pay check and disappear forever.
Good Riddance Haye. Nobody needs a guy talking a big game and once in the ring he doesn't wanna man up and risk throwing a punch.
David Haye threw 200 punches in the biggest fight of his career.
Need anyone say any more?Ibragimov landed 94 on Wlad vs Haye landing 72 on Wlad. Need I say more?
All Haye cared for was not getting knocked out, he landed even LESS than freaking Ibragimov. Disgraceful.
its cool to blame haye but wlad also stunk that fight out.
very true, wlad was scared to engage haye, all he did was throw a jab,
his own corner was telling him to follow up with something, no left hooks, no crosses, no uppercuts, no body shots.....just a boring jab
it seemed like he was scared to come into haye, soon as haye landed a big punch, he'd step back and try to lean on him
Give me fukking break wit da "broken toe" excuse. Fighters have overcome much worse injuries to win fights. Guy have won fights wit broken hands, broken jaws, ghastly cuts, etc. Champions find a way to win..
its cool to blame haye but wlad also stunk that fight out.
Elaborate on that.
Did Mayweather and/or Pac stunk in their respective fights vs Mosley because of Mosley's own fail to show up and fight?
Did you guys actually expect Haye to stand in front of wlad and just throw hands??? He came, he tried to work to a plan, he fell short and he failed. But in no way did Wlad look great out there himself.We all knew going into the fight that if Haye wants to have even the SLIGHTEST chance then he has to come out guns blazing and try to make this a war from the first bell on. He had to take huge risks and hope he'll land a few money shots to take down Wlad.
But guess what? Haye took ZERO risk. He tried to make Wlad look bad so hard that he forgot he also has to land punches and go on the offensive.
ibragimov fought the way he always fought ibragimov was looked at as a boxer not some power puncher that was supposed to knock wladamir out and wladimir looked very cautious in that fight so i put more blame on wladamir for that fight being so boring and i'm not sure if ibragimov didn't land as much as haye did but most of hayes shots looked like they were behind the head and i'm prertty sure ibragimov got hit less than haye did.todays fight playing out the way it did was completly hayes fault he barely threw punches

I agree that Haye did not execute a good offensive game but no way was he anything like Ibragimov who failed to land a single punch on Wlad. Haye marked Klits up, so figure. Look bottom line is, Wlad's physical attributes were always going to be a telling factor in the fight. Haye was never gonna out jab Wlad and it was always going to raiding tactics from Haye.
