    I think Haye/Wlad is a toss up.

    The reasons why, its a clash of styles.

    Two primarily counter-power punchers.

    Both have good footspeed and mobility, haye has the edge in speed, wladamir the edge in reach. Haye has the edge in athletecism, wlad the edge in timing.

    I think that pretty much whoever has the better gameplan will win, neither guy will be comfortable chasing a man who can ko them in one punch.

    saying this is an easy fight for either guy is disrespectful, this is the best heavyweight fight in years and will seal the winners legacy imo.

    its a toss up but this clash in styles might not provide for an exciting fight which is a damn shame

    if haye makes it his fight itll be good...if wlad makes it his fight it'll be boring but dominant in his favor

      Thats it, Wlad needs to establish the jab, Haye will try not to allow him to with footspeed and movement, the guy who loses will be the guy who makes a mistake imo

      this is why haye taunts wlad so bad, he wants him to get out of his game and chase haye around the ring

          spot on mate

          it'll be interesting to see how haye will try to shorten the distance and get inside though. wlad is dangerous for the entire fight but if haye can get him to outpunch himself like sanders for example did then he can capitalize on wlad's poor stamina

            Wlad is smart, he wont be doing any hunting in the ring

            This will be a VERY boring fight

            Looking at Haye against a less dangerous Valuev doing nothing but running, he will be doing alot of running against Vlad

              then there's plenty of meaningless comment threads to go around as well

                not for me, haye wins this easily, haye really is much quicker, wlad will not land at him at all, in my opinion the first big shot haye lands, wlad is out. for me wlad does not throw right handers often enough to beat haye

                  Vlads poor stamina?

                    Haye is definitely the underdog.
