Will David Haye become the first to KO Valuev?

[Mr. Philadel]

IMO Haye better train to go 12 strong because I don't see him having a chance to put Val down or out.....NONE!!.....he can make him look foolish a win a UD tho'!!!

[Shadows]

There's a slim chance, but I don't see it happening.

If he wants a stoppage, he should body spam every chance he gets and maybe Valuev will gass.

[NakiFan]

Haye has horrible 12 round game, and remember what happened last time he tried to ko a guy who had never been stopped?

*sigh*

In only his eleventh pro fight. Don't be silly - you're a better poster than this. One could just as well make the same remark about Vitali, since both fighters have only gone the distance once in their career, with a shut-out on each occasion.

Im just saying that that was a simmilar situation, Haye needs to work on stamina and on scoring without using up lots of energy, not try and bomb granite head out and get tired

Granted, but it was 5 long years ago. I wouldn't say he's a completely different fighter now, but he's learned and moved on - along with having had a successful 12-rounder since then. Plenty of fighters have had poor showings early in their career and made a difference as a result (a certain Wladimir Klitschko automatically springs to mind).

So yeah, I really don't think he'd allow for such a situation to repeat itself. He may be brash and loudmouthed, but he's not ******. Anyone with a brain knows that this fight has a high likelihood of going the distance, so for either fighter to not be prepared for that is ludicrous to say the least (regardless of Haye's ambitions to KO the giant).

[Clint650]

yes. bodyshots, then a HAYEmaker. either way I think Haye can put him away.

[Davros?]

It would be cool to see Haye get the KO but i doubt it.

[GoogleMe]

He can be outboxed, but I really don't see him going down. His face is somewhat wrong, look at his bones - they seem to be unreal.
Haye by UD.

[Addition]

Haye says he's going to be the first to KO Valuev.

What do you think his chances are of Haye knocking Valuev out?

Haye says a lot of things but doesn't go through with them and the trend will continue. The best he can hope for is a win by decision.
