    Wlad-Haye was just like Pacquiao-Mosley

    The winners and supposedly top P4P fighters looked lackluster. Yes they won a majority of the rounds but only by a slim margin and failed to look dominant or control any aspect of the fight. I can understand Pac not solving Mosley because he is not a technician in the ring. But Wlad should have looked a lot better against Haye does not box. Rarely threw a jab and did not look to setup any combinations. After I saw Haye's strategy I was waiting for Wlad to systematically break him down like he usually does his opponents but it never came and the hardest punch of the fight was landed by Haye. I think this fight taints Wlad's legacy somewhat. I still think Vitali-Haye would have been the better fight to watch for entertainment and would have been closer in cards.

    In your peanut head have you ever thought that Wlad makes his opponents look bad? He must be doing something right if they look good against other opponents but BUMS against him while maintaining one of the highest KO% in HW history?

    but nah, hes not black. If he was black and had a 60% KO he would be GOAT

    He needs to be like Floyd! with his 3 KO's in last 10 fights!

    How dare he have 8/10 KO's in his last 10 fights and title defences, he should go to decision like #1 Fighter Floyd right?

    I swear these dudes watching with Horus glasses on

        LOL you seem racially driven lets look at some other aspects.
        Haye moved up from CW was the smaller man in the ring. Cannot box or move around the ring effectively but the reigning HW champ with one of the highest Ko percentages in history cannot take him out why not? I'm not sure why you're bring up Mayweather but he doesn't get KOs because he moved up in weight and he clearly wins his rounds decisively, doesn't get hit and is very accurate puncher.

            give wlad a break. all of the blame for this lackluster fight goes on haye. dude fought like a coward the entire time. wlad has had boring fights before, and he could have made some of them more entertaining for sure, but this one was completely haye's fault. anytime wlad pressed, haye ran.

              Yeah the fight was boring as hell. And I thought Haye was going to bring the action in the early rounds. Even more irritating is he did something similar to what Mosley did during his Pacquiao fight-- blaming his toe & and even showing it on television. Geez.

                Wlad is a scientist. He makes it look easier than it is.

                  No there are 2 people in the ring BOTH guys get the blame. Wlad wasn't exactly a warrior today. He was just as cowardly as Haye he never opened up because he didnt want to get KO'd. Wlad could have tried to cut of the ring but didn't. Both these guys were all talk and didn't do anything. Another glorified sparring match
