[TOBYLEE1]

Ill believe it when Haye signs for the fight.

Have you ever seen Vitali knocking someone with one punch?He relies on hitting someone for 10 rounds then the person quits.Because Haye is elusive and has the Hayemaker he will beat Vitali.Haye has some good defence and is really fast.The ancient way Vitali employs will not work.

Haye is elusive with his feet not his head. Vitali will catch him easy. If you don't understand the sport then you should'nt post.

If Haye was to scared to close the gap and plant his feet with Valuev. What makes you think he's going to do it against Vitali?

Haye was dodging Valuev punches, his reflexes are top notch. Vitali is ****ing slow, no way is he catching Haye.

[xAUGUSTUSx]

actually yes - pretty similar to how he did Valuev - except w/ a lot of more action as he won't hurt his hand early in the fight.

He did'nt hurt his hand dip ****. you actually believe every fighters BS? He realized 30 seconds in that he was'nt going to hurt valuev. If he would've tried to KO Valuev he would've gassed himself out and Valuev would've crushed him. I just can't believe these fans tha follow one fighter and not the whole sport.

How terrible would it be if John Ruiz beat Haye. The thought of the Quiet Man holding another belt makes me sick.

Vitali is like Manny compared to Valuev.
Valuev moves in slow mo,Valuev throws 300 punches a fight,Vitali has thrown 1800+ in his last two.
Mormeck didnt have any trouble catching him and he was hardly cat like was he,Neither was monte ****in barrett

Ha Ha Haye's reflexes looked like **** ! All he did was run all night and will easy get knocked out by vitali

[P4P Opinion]

Haye has a very good chance against Vitali provided he boxes smart. It seems that the general opinion is that Haye only has a chance against Wladimir out of the two Klitschko brother because of Wladimir's chin issue, but Haye has a far better chance against Vitali and could upset the odds. Vitali does not have one punch knockout power despite his high knockout percentage - he breaks down his opponents systematically with an accumulation of punches over the course of the fight. I simply don't think Vitali can land enough on Haye to score a knockout. Haye is far quicker and far more elusive than anyone Vitali has faced, meaning that the now slower Vitali will have some serious problems landing flush. Vitali is also easier to hit than Wladimir, who now has an excellent defence. I doubt even Haye has the power to hurt Vitali either though, although if anyone can, he can.

I'm convinced that a fight between David Haye and Vitali Klitschko will go the distance - it sounds bizarre considering that both fighters have such high knockout percentages, but provided they both fight smart I think it'll happen. I'm not convinced about either taking the decision mind.

Haye's head movement particulary in the first 6 rounds against Valuev was excellent. Its Haye gun slinger style that makes him vulnerable, but he's shown when he fights smart he is very hard to hit, and I'm not sure Vitali has the speed to do it. He looked painfully slow in his last fight with his hands and feet. He doesn't move his head and fights in straight lines. Haye could beat him comfortably if he fights the right fight.
