Steve Cunningham: "Wlad is an unbelievable athlete"

[The Hammer]

Really why would i be ****** enough to bet 1:1 when i can get 2:1? If you was so confident you'd give odds like most others are.

Despite all your talk you must believe there's only one chance in three that Haye wins.

are you going to germany to watch this fight?

Heh, not many people tell the whole story here, so I'll throw in my thoughts.

A couple of guys are how Chagaev beat Valuev so much better than Haye, by boxing on the inside etc.

But you forgot to mention Chagaev didn't have Valuev doing the chicken dance in round pick apart a slow 7 footer and expose all his floors using fast, good foot movement and firing off accurate single shots over 12 rounds. I'm sure the stats will also show you Valuev barely landed a glove on Haye. My point is it he beat the guy... who cares about how he did it, it's totally irrelevant, he got the W he deserved like Chagaev did. No 2 fighters fight exactly the same so to make a comparison on how they beat a guy is totally useless.

On topic: Cunningham is a good fighter but none of the cruiserweight belt holders seem to want to try to unify the belts... But Haye is the coward right and Bell too? *sigh*

Roll on Haye vs Vitali

What????????????

No, I came close to going through with it, but I kept thinking Haye might b1tch out and I'd end up feeling like a fool for wasting all the money.

I'm definitely going to Las Vegas for Froch-Ward though. I love the desert environment.

I might come over to Edmonton to watch a fight some time. If Arreola-Fields was in Edmonton, I would for sure.

Probably the smart thing to do. Too much money to risk considering all thats happened between these two. Regardless of the winner, I have a feeling there's going to be a rematch in order unless Haye just gets completely embarrassed. I'm going to try to match up one of my girlfriend's trips home with one of Wlads next fights, because I want to see him before he retires.

Yes. I had a nightmare about sitting in the crowd, waiting and waiting, and Haye not showing up - then feeling ****** for not realizing there was a very good chance of Haye b1tching out again.

Be honest bro none of those guys would beat Haye,outside of Adamek who i believe would lose but put up a damn good fight.

I dont know man...I got Adamek killing Haye...I also got Adamek as what I call a "undercover undefeated" fighter....his lost to Chad came on the scales imo...Adamek is my guy....used to not like him for childish reasons( he dropped my dude USS 3 times and took his strap) but you can say he grew on me ....Adamek over Haye all day!!

I agree. His loss to Dawson came before they ever stepped in the ring. He damn near killed himself to make weight, gmitruk was not in his corner, and the guy who was ... was well, Buddy Mcgirt.... even then Adamek still put Chad on his ass.

Either way. Cunningham is right. I read somewhere else where on film Wlad appears to be this robot but in the ring his athleticism and footwork are surprising.

Where is Steve Cunningham?

Why isn't he scheduled to fight?

That is what I am thinking and was going to make a thread about, I mean the guy is 35 now and is pretty inactive for a world champion. I would like to see the Troy Ross rematch.
