Comments Thread For: Haye: Vitali Klitschko Has Not Had a Defining Fight Yet!

[Mike Tyson77]

Vitali could never have been an ATG, the opposition in his career wasn't good enough, same goes for Wlad. I do think Wlad is a HOF though, but Vitali is borderline at best, though he will get in. Vitali's resume is just weak, and the thing I don't repsect Wlad for is that he never rematched Sanders.

He rematched Brewster and TKO'd him with a jab. He would have killed sanders.

Unlikely Haye is nothing more than a good HW in the grand scheme of things.

Will Vitali doesent need this fight then, cause the haters still wont give him credit.

And beating Haye, who was easily dominated by Wladimir - and, let's be honest, didn't even look as though he tried to win the fight - would be a defining fight? Give it a rest, David!

I do like Haye, and I wouldn't mind seeing this fight, but Haye seems to forget he was easily handled by Wlad. By the looks of Vitali the other night, he'd still present big problems for Haye - he's way more combative than Wlad, hits harder and is only slightly less awkward. I still hope the fight happens, of course.

So if Haye actually beat Vitali, does he get credit??? Though Vitali is past his prime completely, I think Haye should get his dues.

well obviously he would get massive credit - same goes for vitali it would be the best win on either guys record

He didn't rematch Sanders though, a major blemish on his career.

And he'll get credit for beating the next best HW aside from he and Wlad, which would be as good a win as Byrd and Haye were for Wlad. It would be far and away his best win.

It wouldn't make him an ATG, because as I said earlier, the fighters in their era weren't good enough for them to get to that status.

wlad hits harder

wlad hits harder

Absolutely. Its not even close IMO, he is a far superior puncher to his older brother.

He'll get credit it would be his best win but it doesn't move him anywhere near the ATG's.

At the moment Wlad is on another level to any HW including Vitali. Wlad has far superior technique, speed and power.

if the fight does happen, i'd go out on a limb and say i reckon the likely outcome is haye gets the win over vitali goes on to lose a rematch with wlad and then retires a very wealthy man.
