Comments Thread For: Valuev Likes What He Saw as Chagaev Eyes David Haye

Maybe so but you did it through a deprecating comment. I don't think it's too unrealistic to expect Haye to stop him.

Yeah, but you also thought it was not unrealistic for Haye to stop Valuev either, tell me how did that fight go?

I didn't watch the Meehan/Chagaev fight but opinions seem to be polarised - some say it was an excellent performance while a lot of others are downplaying it.

Either way I can't really see either beating Haye; i'd say he stops Chagaev around 8 or 9, and gets rid of Meehan in about 5.

Chagaev has certainly faced better competition than Haye has at heavyweight and his win over Valuev was MUCH more convincing than Haye's.

I don't see any reason to think Haye would defeat him, given Haye's lacklustre outings at HW to date.

My money is on Chagaev to defeat Haye. Chagaev's one loss is to Wlad, but everybody loses against Wlad.
