Will his year of inactivity affect David Haye on Nov 7?

[mrbigshot]

I don't think so. he is 29 and if he trains and spar he shouldbe alright. especially when he fights slow moving Nicolaiy. But I see it opposite way. Valuev doesnt like David. He just need to clinch David for 4-5 rounds and david will be tired. wouldnt be surprised if David loses this fight

i would be very very surprised if david does not win this fight

speed kills and valuev can and has been hurt before

david haye has a huge knock out ratio and does not tickle but i do think is game plan will be too hit and move also he works the body very well as well so maybe he could wear valuev down, i dont think the stoppage is out of the question

As good as Holyfield has been, he's absolutely ancient now. Yet still had success against Valuev. Haye might have a dodgy chin, but he has plenty of speed, and that might be all that is needed.

He'll just have to careful that he doesn't slug it out at any stage.

Haye is a dumb ass. A year of inactivity will fuck up your stamina and Valuev will be taking Haye the distance for the second time in his career. Just punching up will tire him out more than usual and Haye has suspect stamina anyway.

This might look like the Valuev-Barrett fight where he just falls from exhaustion and Valuev keeps him there.

Yes, there's a chance Valuev will take him out in the late rounds.

[Davros?]

I think it might have a bit of an effect but not too much against Valuev as he is so slow.

[Davros?]

Its not that long away now, If Haye does manage to win he should fight Ruiz as soon after this fight as possible.
