    Haye played on the pulling a bit, but Klitschko was puling and none of us know what that felt like to Haye, the referee was a little ****** though IMO.

    The toe could of made a bit of a difference, when trying to push off your back foot, because when facing somebody as good and crafty as Wlad you want to be 100%.

    Haye needed to throw more punches than he did, he fought Wlads fight with the jab too much IMO, he got some combinations off sometimes and stole rounds because of it... had he done it more often hed have had a lot more success I think... but when your in their with Klitschko that can be difficult I guess.

      Not really.

      That's how he fights. And Klit is very hard to hit.

      Haye fights like Jean Pascal with less work-rate.

      He's a very good cruiserweight, and a good heavyweight.

        It's always a letdown when a fighter talks trash and then accepts defeat. It's a downright disgrace when a fighter spends TWO YEARS talking trash and accepts defeat the way Haye did.

          I think Klitschko showed how limited Haye was as a boxer. When it gets tough Haye only has a 1-2 haymaker combination he had no answers for Wlad's relentless pressure.

          He flopped it and he didn't even put up a decent fight. The only thing he can be proud of is that he took Wlad's best shots and wasn't hurt in the fight, which was surprising, but it's little consolation at the end of the day.

            yea he did because he didnt try to knock wlad out,he never doubled his jab to close the distance and then go for the right hand,he bottled it

            saying that wlad was over two stones heavier and didnt do anything imo.....

            the amount of **** haye was talking,the bigger man should of gone for the stoppage,he was winning the fight easy but looked sacred aswell

            **** em both,hopefully haye ****s off but i just see his interview and he wants a rematch

              I dunno about that. He did hurt Wlad in the 12th.

              He was looking for the bingo punch. But that's how he fights.

                I didnt think Klitchko was really hurt tbh

                Hey remember when HW's used to FIGHT? Remember guys like Mike Tyson and Joe Frazier who werent afraid to take a risk to get there own big shots off, remember when body punching was part of HW boxing? I think im done with HW's now - James Toney had me fooled into thinking he could somehow save the division (shame on me) and then Haye pulled the wool over my eyes again and what im left with is a dull who gives a **** division full of bums and or over cautious sissys

                  Maybe clutching at straws, but his best punch of the night was probably delivered in the 12th which is not really indicative of a man who had given up the ghost.

                  I wish he had more moments, though. And I wish he didn't get his ****** toe out.

                    I do feel for him in a way, if he'd pulled out injured can u imagine the ***** he'd have gotten!?

                    Still if ur prepared to fight the biggest fight of ur life with it then dont use it as an excuse afterwards.

                    Wlad wanted that 12 round KO man, he was trying to get his A Material off and that forced Haye to let his shots go if u ask me man

                    Im just gutted...

                      I'm pretty gutted.

                      Especially when you see Haye after the fight. Not a scratch on him.
