    The more I watch the prefight events, the more I favor Haye

    ....but the more I actually watch Haye's fights, the less chance I think he has.

    I really hope Haye will actually back up his talk. I just want a good fight!

    for me its the opposite the more vids i watch of wladimir on utube the more he looks beatable. The speed difference alone will be a big factor in this fight and i dont think wlad can deal with it.

      Is there any fighter Wlad has faced with the mobility and agility Haye has besides speed?

      Corrie Sanders was a moving target while it lasted and put his shots together quite well. Don't see him being as agile as Haye is, though.

        the flipside is the same thing, except that haye hasn't shown that he can overcome the adversity that wlad has....

          The speed is going to make a huge difference, and while Wlad is a lot bigger Haye is not a super short heavyweight. If he can use enough movement to avoid the jab and get inside on Wlad he can win the fight.

            The thing is with the pre-fight hype, they need to make Haye look like hes a game opponent.

            Don't get tricked into believing this commercially built hype. It's based mostly on exaggerations. Kind of like with Mannys and Floyds opponents.

                I have no interest in this fight at all,Wlad is going to jab him to death and the first right hand that lands the fight is over,this is not Valuev Wlad has real boxing skills and a big punch.

                    Yes he was, a naturally twitchy, springy fighter. Moved very fast, punched very hard and fast etc. His problem was lack of fitness and bo9xing skills. rather faster than Haye, who wouldn't have lasted any longer than the very first punch, against Sanders.
