David Haye will DESTORY Vitali.

[cuzfozzy]

david 'hits like hay' at heavyweight
he already had a chance to fight them
now its obvious he is using their name to sell his fights .....
he should pay them lol

[P4P Opinion]

He's going to de-story him.

He's going to take that story right off Vitali.

I reached the conclusion Vitali is a better opponent for Haye a while ago. He's old. And, basically, he's not as good as Wlad. He's never been as good as Wlad. He's tougher - that's it.

And all those posters that talk about Vitali being an expert of cutting the ring off are talking complete bollocks. Since when?

Vitali's body would be creaking like an old door if Haye took him into the late rounds. He will employ the same tactics he used against Valuev and that will present a lot of problems for an old Vitali.


Wlad would control the fight with his jab, like always.

Exactly what I've been thinking since the Arreola fight. Last night only confirmed what I was thinking. Frankly, aside from the fact that I think style-wise Vitali is a better fight for Haye, I also think that Vitali lacks the one-punch knockout power to really exploit Haye's chin. Vitali wears down his opponents to knock them out, but I really think he'd have trouble landing enough flush punches to knock Haye out, whereas Wladimir could end it all with one big right hand.

Vitaly has the highest KO% of any HW champ in history. If Haye adopts his Valuev tactics he loses the fight by huge UD, if Haye attempts to trade with Vitaly he get's KO'd.

haye didnt really do much against a non punching valuev
whats he going to do with either klitschko throwing bombs at him
i say any klitschko goes down like michael grant did to LL

Vitali will at least throw right-hands at Haye.

Valuev gave nothing. Nothing.

That said, Vitali could definetely hurt and stop and Haye. But, Haye should have opportunities to catch the big man.

which is exactly what David Haye needs to happen?

And, in reality, throwing bombs at David Haye is not the smartest or the easiest way of either Klitschko trying to beat a smaller man with a significant speed advantage and a huge right hand.

Wlad for sure would tuck up behind a jab all night, and probably never open up until Haye was on his last legs.

I always said Dave Haye will beat vitali. Vitali is too slow old and boring, haye too fast and skilled for him. vitali only fights fat bums, , he dosn't know what will hit him when a more skilled fighter with speed like haye ko him.

haye has more skills, is faster and a harder puncher. hay is the best in the division right now. the klit are boring and robotic.

I disagree...

Haye will hover on the outside just like he did from Valuev, and try to land the odd pot shot.

Difference is, Vitali is no Valuev. And if he catches chinny Haye, goodnight.

guys on the forum go nuts over the K2 Bros, they are defintelly the top heavyweights but they are not unbeatable, even Wlads on trainer is scared of the Haye fight, "I'm pretty shocked by how much this guy has been improving over the last few years" - steward when asked about what he thought about David Haye, he also said Haye should beat Nicolai Valuev
