David Haye is Fighting for the Hearts of Boxing Fans

That isn't true of Vitali. And it didn't used to be true of Wlad until he got iced by Sanders. He originally became safely first out of necessity, in order to protect his weak chin, but he took it much too far. But Vitali isn't safety first at all, although he doesn't have enough fluidity or explosiveness to make his fights as exciting as you might like.Comment

Wlad's knock-outs are fine, but all the rounds leading up to the knock-out bore most people. If they don't bore you, fine, but if you can't understand why they bore most people then you are blind. His tactics are almost always safely first until he gets the chance to go for a KO. And he doesn't have the fluidity, or punch variety, or graceful movement that a Mayweather or a Jones have, to compensate for those tactics.Last edited by Dave Rado; 05-22-2009, 06:42 PM.Comment

If you think statistics rather than actual fights is what makes fights interesting then it's you who is not a boxing fan.
Wlad's knock-outs are fine, but all the rounds leading up to the knock-out bore most people. If they don't bore you, fine, but if you can't understand why they bore most people then you are blind. His tactics are almost always safely first until he gets the chance to go for a KO. And he doesn't have the fluidity, or punch variety, or graceful movement that a Mayweather or a Jones have, to compensate for those tactics.
If you can't tell the difference between a welterwieght, light heavywieght and a heavywieght, then its u who is not a boxing fan, or just plan ******. I will opt for the latter. Wlad is a heavy handed hitter that knocks people out yes there are boxers more exciting but there are not very many HW as affective.Comment

He wasn't making a racist comment he was making a valid statment, next time try reading the article properly I my self have a lot of black friends they dont like the klitschkos, because of style and race.Comment
