Dirrell/Haye hippocrites

[FeFist]

C'mon now I like Haye but the fight was a huge let down and his performance was awful. If you can't find an opening then you need to change your game plan. Do something else and try to create openings. Take risks and gamble but Haye refused to do that cause he knew he could end up getting KO'd.

Dirrell on the other hand was very green and had never fought a top 10 fighter before...Even if a lot of ppl didn't like the way Dirrell fought the fight was very close and could've gone either way. Dirrell even hurt Froch while it was quite difficult to find a way to give Haye any rounds.

I don't like Haye and I'm saying what I'm saying. Why don't you step in a boxing ring and see how much you can think of in 3 minutes time, see what you're willing to try when someone is jabbing you in the face and the threat of a big right looms. There's also the threat of gassing out and surrendering all of the momentum to the opponent Too many people play Fight Night and don't realise that one clean punch can leave you in a hospital bed.

Undeserved? Tell me how fighters like Mormeck are more deserving.

Mormeck wasn't deserving either.

Give up winning? Haye trying to draw Wlad in by dropping his hands in front of Wlad is giving up? Wlad fought like a ***** refusing to engage with someone that had dropped their defences, content on using his range to land a few jabs and hold and lean on his opponent when he comes forward. People try to say it was Haye running but the truth is Wlad was the more defensive fighter.

Yeah noone could have predicted that Wlad was going to fight cautiously from the outside, it was very unusual for him to do that.

Earl, how many Dirrell threads are you gonna create ffs?

He didn't just fight cautiously he flat out refused to throw anything but a jab. Maybe if he wasn't allowed to get away with so much holding/leaning we'd actually get an entertaining fight from the guy.

When I saw the title I thought they took the Hippocrates oath to become doctors.

It's not up to him to change the tactics, he was winning every round. That is, if his opponents goal was to win.

Horrible comparison.

Whether you feel Dirrell won or lost it can't be denied that the fight was close.
Haye on the other hand didn't win a single round.

For the record I agree with Earl, I think people's harshness stems from the fact that they hate Haye, the same thing happens to fighters like Mayweather and Khan. I don't even fault Haye for the way he fought in his fight with Wlad, what people see as ''taking a risk'' would in fact be a kamekaze attack. If he threw caution to the wind Wlad would have picked him apart, it was in his best interest to wait for an opening, unfortunately for Haye Wlad boxed cautiously.

This.

Dirrell is only a "slick black G" to certain posters, mostly Broner/Mayweather fans. Not by real American boxing fans.

To us he's a fucking pussy.

Sure Haye is braver than most people, but we're judging them by the standards of their profession. And by his own words, remember the 3 years of trash talk from him?
