How much credit will Wladimir Klitchko receive if he knocks out David Haye?

I have made a thread about exactly this about a week or so ago, I called all the klitschko fans out, I will quite happily admit I was wrong and you were right, I will pm you if you like as well, but you and your buddies should do the same as well as an apology for sending me abusive messages, and red k for simply stating my opinion. Wlad will go up a notch or 2 in my estimation for beating his FIRST world class fighter. I need to see him catch some shots before I even consider him with some of the past greats. I don't think the rabbit punch scenario is likely as wlad is considerably taller, haye is a finisher, he has a killer instinct which sometimes leads him to get overzealous. Wlad also has some illegal tricks up his sleeve ie batting fighters lead hands down with his jab. I still believe wlads best strategy is taking haye out as early as possible, whilst he is standing he is dangerousWe'll see.
Since you believe Haye is a world-class HW, will you be a good sport and give Wlad credit if he knocks Haye out?
I will give Haye FULL CREDIT credit if he KOs Wlad, as long as he doesn't use rabbit punches (like with Ruiz) or finish him when he's already down (like he did with Fragomeni).Comment

Why should Wlad get any credit? According to all you K Bros **** riders, Haye is nothing more than a fraud, a paper champion and a glass chinned bum. I can't give Wlad any credit for a win over a guy like that.

I know you've got an obsession with gayness so i'll send you some of these to help you when Wlad gets KO'd.

Maybe the Wlad fans who say Haye was a bum shouldn't give Wlad much credit for knocking him out...
But the Haye nuthuggers who consider Haye the second coming of Muhammed Ali should consider a Wlad KO of Haye a GREAT win for Dr. Steelhammer.Comment

Not many Haye fans are delusional as you are for Wlad. He's not an ATG....... but neither is Wlad.Comment

You're probably right; but don't take it personal.I wonder if Wladimir Klitschko will finally receive some of the respect he deserves if he KOs David Haye.
My feeling is he will be more respected in the UK by the fans and the media, but the unfairly negative comments from American boxing fans and media people like Teddy Atlas and Eric Raskin will not change.
What do you think?
All our heavyweights suck so most of us aren't paying as much attention to the division any more.
Course it also doesn't help that we can't follow the champion(s) for the most part if we wanted to, except via YouTube.
THANKS NETWORK TV, HBO, & SHOWTIME!!! Point being, there's not a whole lot of coverage on this side of the pond....so it's difficult to keep up with and, since boxing is predominantly geographic in it's fanbase....since there are no U.S. heavyweights of note....there are very few Americans that give a real notice to the heavyweight division these days.
Consequentially, Wlad will not get much more respect over here, IMO. He's got respect already...sort of; but it's always followed with a "but". Meaning, he couldn't have done such-and-such against a prime Evander Holyfield, or Mike Tyson, etc., etc., etc.
American Heavyweight fans are trapped in Nostalgia because there is no other reality for us at the moment.
The opinions of K-DOGG are his and his alone and may be disputed by any other American....just cite 10 excellent current American heavies to back up your claim.

You'll be deeply hurt when you see the man of your dreams lying on the canvas after a big punch from Wlad.
