    Absolutely correct.

        I gotta go with Wlad on this one. Both he and vitali are two of the classiest fighters in boxing.

        On the other hand, I see Haye's trash-talking ass weakness. Truth is he's scared s**t-less and uses his bark to try and compinsate for his bite. Don't get me wrong, he's a superb cruiserweight, but he's about 56lbs out of his level on this one.

            To me, the low-class, repetitive trash talk from Haye is boring.

            And Haye's dirty hold-and-hit, rabbit-punching fighting style is ugly to watch, while Wlad's technical excellence is beautiful to behold!
            Damn Tunney, that is some top shelf nut huggin' right there. Thats what I sound like when I describe the beauty that is JMM.

              I think he will fight a lot like he did in the Maccarinelli fight. Standing in the middle of the ring using head movement and reflexes to avoid the jab, not looking to get hit rather than getting points in the bank and then waiting to land a....HAYEMAKER.

                I am definitely rooting for Haye to pull this fight out. I don't hate Vlad but somebody needs to take the handcuffs off the heavyweight division that the Klit brothers have got on it. As far as which brother I respect the most that would be Vitaly. Watching Vlad fight is like goin to the doctor for an infected scrotum.

                  Did you feel the same way about Ali's trash talking? And about Mayweather's trash talking? And about Hopkins' trash talking?

                    I do think that Haye absolutely deserved his CW crown... I just think he didn`t strengthen his position as a leader... He defeated Mormeck who was very close to his retirement, and after defeating Enzo he moved up to HW at once...

                    It was like Roy Jones defeating Ruiz... Yeh he defeated him, got the title... But it wasn`t a reign.... that championship was too short and not enough...

                    So, IMO, Haye, in the same way, didn`t establish himslef as a Cruiserweight king...

                    P.S. i really can`t see how Haye can defeat present Wladimir. He could have had a chance with pre-Steward Wladimir, before 2004... But Wladimir didn`t reach his prime at that time...

                      Offtopic...

                      With all due respect to these fighters:
                      Ali had a great record, achievements and opposition
                      B-Hop has a great record, achievements and opposition
                      Floyd has a perfect record, achievements but his opposition is... m-m-m... the closest thing to being called average...

                      It is possible that you might see some hint of a fear in Mayweather, if he will take a "losable" fight one day...
