    Haye by comprehensive UD. His chin isn't an issue, as Valuev would never hit it.

    The only question mark is whether Haye can adapt his style, as he would need to. He would need to fight much more defensively rather than looking for a KO he will never get, but even doing that he should still take every round.

      Valuev beat the **** out of Lyhaiovich and Ruiz and now he's chopped liver because of one bad fight. He also beat the **** out of Barrett and had a tough battle against Chagaev.
      Don't judge a fighter by one bad performance.

        Question is if Haye has the skills to do the same. I cannot see Haye knocking Valuev out TBH.
        What you mean he nearly pull it off, what was your scorecard

          I had Holyfield 115-113. But that's irrelevant as the judges, who were ringside, saw it differently. Valuev got a majority decision so Holyfield was close.

              I am ok with the decision. It was a close (and boring) fight. A lot of close rounds that could go either way so I'm ok.

              How did you score it?

                But does he have what it takes to defeat the giant?

                Does Holyfield have what it takes to defeat the giant? Apparently most of the people posting in this forum think so. Valuev obviously has no idea how to handle opponents who move.

                  You are ok with this decision what a joke and bias poster you are


                  116-112 Holyfield

                  No way could this fight been scored for Valuev or even a draw

                    Please accept that others have different opinions than you do.

                    Here's what american Yahoo thinks: "Yahoo! Sports scored it 116-112 for Valuev, primarily on account of Holyfield’s remorseless reluctance to throw leather in the second half of the contest."

                    Did you watch via stream?

                      He beat 49 guys. You're telling me none of them moved?
