Comments Thread For: Steward: Klitschko is Emotionally Charged up by Haye

[Jedi Vader]

I'm beginning to wonder if he's going to charge at haye and try to go for a one round k.o.

This is what makes this fight so great and intriguing.

There are so many permutations of what can happen and how. Personally, I think that Haye will patiently bide his time until he sees an opening and go for it.

if he emotional he will be getting a beating

That's Steward diplomacy, he's a TV hound. No way a chess expert is getting emotionally "charged-up" for ANYTHING. not even his girlfriend.

Wladimir used to be a bit reckless and undisciplined, but lately he has been too measured. He actually does a lot better if somebody lights a fire under him. When Eddie Chambers picked him up and dumped him to the ground, Wladimir got angry for a round or so, and lay a beating on him -- before slipping back into routine. When he got a cut against Brock, and knew he couldn't count on a decision, Wladimir stepped it up and devastated Brock.

It's not a bad idea on Haye's part to get Wladimir mad, but he has to make him really mad so he gets reckless, not just a little mad so he hits harder.

He doesn't need to "charger' at anyone. All he needs is to have haye lurking around what he thinks is the periphery, where he will be withing reach of klitschko's long left, which is always perfectly thrown thus getting the maximum length and delivery power at the end of his fist.

With that in Haye's face a nice right hand cross could finish the job. but we have to take into consideration what Klitschko said about this fight that he would punish Haye for 12 rds and then KO him near the end of the rd. Normally you can't believe whay any fighter says, his tactics and strategy are going to be, but....who knows?? I don't.

If Haye has caused Wlad to be this emotional, imagine the state he'll have Vitali in!!

Getting Vitali mad is a bad idea. Compared to Wladimir, Vitali is a serial killer.

Its funny how people like Emmanuel will say things like Klitschko is still in his prime and he's 35 but at the same token a guy like Floyd can't be in his prime because he's 34 now

heavyweights, especially modern time guys, stay in their prime a lot longer. Have you not seen this over the past dozen or 20 years? and ALWAYS, the lighter weights peak and age sooner. When I was boxing, years ago, a fighter was in his prime from about 22-26 and after that began to age fairly rapidly, usually finished and retiring by age 32 or so.

So Mayweather is already past his prime even for modern times. An occasional "sport", (an oddity) might go on until about 37-38, like Marquez, but his opposition lately hasn;t been all that good. If Khan had a chin, for example, he'd carve up Marquez in my opinion, although I don't care for him much. Then again gus today fight a lot less, so less wear and tear, also much better nutrition, although in my opinion (again) less inate toughness.

Laszlo Papp, my favourite boxer, had over 300 amateur fights when they were like pro fights with no headgear nor much ref protection, lost only about 5, and turned pro at the great age of 32. Against all the odds, still unbeaten, he was in line up for a middleweight title bout against Joey Giardello, at age 39, with no signs of ageing, and could easily have won. But he was unique, the only pro boxer from the whole Communist Bloc, the first (by over 20 years) 3 Gold Medal Olympic winner, and much more. A real FizzBomb. One of a kind.

Some computer error here; I sent in a post on Laszlo Papp as an example of "special cases".
