      nope!
      Klitschko does NOT have a shaky chin. You are all wrong about that, and it was proved when eter hit him a few good wallops on the chin during their first fight. Klitschko dodn't even notice them and gave Peter his first loss. This was the next fight after the Brewster "mystery" and Klitschko deliberately took the Peter fight since peter was supposed to be a KO killer, just to show that there was nothing wrong with his chin.

      No one seems to have noticed this, unfortunately, and I believe that he really hasn't been knocked down since then. That's about 6 years ago I think.

        I think it will be a chess match, but Haye has a decent chance to win.

          It will be boring as ****, but that will be masked by the insane tension we will all feel know that the fight is going to end one way or the other at any time. When a fight is this high profile and you KNOW it is ending with a KO, its going to be tense. As far as the action goes, Wlad will work behind the jab, and Haye will pose and throw about his usual 4 punches a round.

            A lot of people want to see big-mouth Haye knocked out and humiliated in the ring. A lot of people want to see boring Wladimir knocked out and embarrassed.

            Whoever loses, the fans win.

              He was knocked down 3 times in that fight and was in danger of getting stopped in the 10th but the bell saved him. Apart from the knockdowns, he was hurt a couple other times as well. Pretty much any decent punch got his legs going. Nope, definitely has a shaky chin and I think everyone knows that.

                One real knockdown and two clubs to the back of the head. But yeah, his chin is crap.

                  Nope. I mean the KO will be entertaining but the fight probably won't be. Haye's not the aggressor he needs to be to win this fight. He needs to be aggressive and hurt Wlad right off the bat and keep hitting him and make Wlad fade by not letting him fight the way the pace he likes to fight at.

                  But most likely he'll be circling around looking dumb fighting just to survive while Wlad just wins rounds by jabbing until he eventually catches him with a straight right.

                      Well, the fight is finally listed on Boxrec, so I guess as of now it's a go. I just hope Haye doesn't pull out again. (Or even Wlad for that matter.)

                      We can't have another case of 61,000 people paying for a fight they don't get to see. It's bad for boxing.

                      As for the fight being exciting, I think it should be. It all depends on how Haye goes about the fight. If he goes for broke and tries to KO Wlad, yeah, it will be exciting.

                      But I have a feeling that Haye is going to feel Wlad's jab, and try to stay out of harm's way until he eventually get's KO'd late.

                      From what I've seen of Haye, he just doesn't bring to the table what is necessary to beat this version of Wlad.

                      I still say he should have fought someone along the lines of Aadamek, Arreola, or even someone like Tony Thompson before fighting Wlad.

                      That being said, he's probably not confident enough in his own abilities to beat one of those fighters, so he better cash out while he can. He can't keep having Harrison-like fights, and expect people to pay to see him.

                      Haye's going to make a ton of cash, that's for sure. And he's done it without taking any real serious risk. I gotta' give him credit, he's gotten far in the HW division without doing too much.

                      That being said, once he fights Wlad (IF he ever does.) he will be exposed. But at least he'll walk away with a cool $10million. (At least.) I wish I could do the same. I'd fight just about anybody for that kind of money, regardless of how badly I might get beat up. Let's just hope the fight actually takes place this time. *Crosses fingers*
