    Vitali vs Haye = Vitali vs Herbie Hide

    A couple of things to note though

    1. Haye hits harder
    2. Herbie's footwork is much better
    3. Herbie threw the fight against Vitaly, Haye won't.
    4. Herbie actually fought at heavy quite a bit and fought a prime Rid**** Bowe lasting 6 rounds, I don;t know if he decided to give up or if he was legitimately out, never saw it.

    Anyway here are the two rounds of Herbie vs Vitaly and you decide for yourselves.

    I agreed with this comparison on another thread.

    Wlad_Owns and others use it as a stick to beat Haye with, but actually look at it like you say. Because they see TKO2

    and its...Interesting.

      Hide didn't "throw the fight"

      Vitali knocked his ass out

        Herbie does not look bad at all though, he actually makes Vitaly react to faints and what not.

        I still think VItaly brutalizes Haye but iif I were to play devil's advocate and just watch the first round as a blueprint to handle The Big Machine it gives Haye's supporters hope.

        Any bets are welcome though, I'd ride the Big Machine's bandwagon heavy into the sunset lol.

          Bro,

          I am big on Vitaly too, but be objective for a second and watch the knockout punch, it didn't land anywhere. herbie didn't want to get punished ala Kirk Johnson so he dove kind of like DLH vs Hopkins. I know DLH threw two fights, Herbie I just know of this one and Emmanuel's thrown a few too.

              I think that was a geniune knockout.

              I'm a big Hide fan but he has awful awful awful punch resistance. P4P he makes Khan look like Margarito.

                It was definitely legit, no doubt about it, the first 1-2 that Vitali landed, the right hand landed under the ear, on top of the neck, that **** hurts, believe me, then the second 1-2 put him down.

                  The knockdown was legit, no argument from me there, but the finishing touch, common Herbie didn't even get clipped and he fell down and had seizures.

                    You have to see him get KTFO by some fat African bum I forget his name.

                    I thought he was dead.
