Comments Thread For: Haye: I've Never Seen Wladimir Klitschko So Intimidated

[Roberto Vasquez]

I don't want to worry people but before the fight I saw an interview with Klitchko's manager in a British newspaper where he said it would be better from a financial point of view if Wlad lost, because it would help regain public interest in him. Apparently interest has been falling since all of his fights became a procession. If Wlad comes back and wins now - its a big story and good for his reputation too.

Anyway personally I don't think Wlad threw the fight. I think a lot of of why Wlad lost was because Tyson moves so fast. Wlad is a defensive fighter so he doesn't like to commit himself and risk being hit. Wlad moved around a hell of a lot over the 12 rounds for someone who is over the hill. Fury looked more out of breath than he did. So I don't think age caught up with Wlad at all.

never respected klit as a great champion and never ever will..
grab jab and run..i can understand if u're the smaller guy inthe ring but my god he was always bigger...he had to do it bc he know he cant stay in the pocket and depend on reflex to protect his Charmin whiskers..

if u respect wlad there is not boxer that u shouldnt like..he is the definition of boring..

Lmao "charmin whiskers" I feel a cat food and toilet paper sponsorship coming your way.

Yet when Ali did it for years it made him the 'greatest' didn't it. Boxing mastery when Floyd ties up a fighter. At least Wladimir more often than not, knocked out his challengers. Floyd hasn't knocked out an opponent for real since way undersized Ricky Hatton, and that was because the ref took his game completely out of the fight. There's a whole lot to respect about Klitschko, and not just what he does between the ropes. Jerk.

dumb comment..ali didnt hold sonny liston once..ali was only a holder after his longh break took his legs..and once again he was holding ATG not ***ing guy si cant even remember!...floyd istn supposed to ko canelo and guys that much bigger than him..please stop that dumb comparison..

hatton said "floyd is too good on the inside"...anyone e3vger siad that about *****ko??

Exactly. Everything is self-promotion with this knob head. He's been milking his shoddy little 'win' over Valuev for six years now and now he's trying to imply that Wlad would have lost to him just because he was bigger. WTF? It's no wonder this utter turd of a man crashed and burned like he did with the attitude he has. Fury beat Wlad because he was better than him. There's nothing more complex about it than that.

And he'd sure as hell beat Haye's ass any day of the week. Fury, unlike Haye, actually understands how to win fights when he doesn't posses a sizeable speed and power advantage. He'd get into Haye's head, make him second guess himself, then clown him for twelve straight rounds the same way he did to Wlad while Haye wonders what on Earth just happened.

Haye is complete fraud. That victory over Valuev isn't great by any margin, a 45 year old Evander Holyfield put on a better performance against that big oaf.

Klitschko has fought many guys bigger then him and when he does he looks like Floyd Mayweather in there. See his fight against Mariusz Wach? He boxed beautifully, used angles, movement, everything while Wach couldn't even hit him! The difference between Fury and everyone else is the skill and speed. The size helps but if it wasn't for his speed and skill he would have been beaten up like the rest. Fury would smash, although i'm hoping he NEVER gets a shot at Fury for all the **** he pulled when they were scheduled to fight.

It's such a myth that Wlad only wins because he's bigger than his opponents. Like you said, he absolutely brutalised Wach and considering how slow and useless Valuev was he would have brutalised him too. Wlad's best performances in the past tended to come out against bigger guys because he wasn't able to clinch them and was forced to be more aggressive. Valuev would have been the first opponent with a huge height advantage over him, and I suspect it would have brought out the best in him. Shame it never happened as it would have shut a lot of critics up.

Haye barely beat Valuev (I had him losing at the time) and if he hadn't rocked him in the final round there'd have been nothing noteworthy about the fight at all. Haye needs to get some new material, because his old stuff is wearing very thin indeed.

You mean like the way he pads the ring and ****s with the opponent's gloves? Or the way he blatantly headbutts fighters knowing that his paid off ref won't bat an eyelid?

WTF are you even talking about?

LOL at Ali losing his legs when he came back. He was still in his 20's.

Klitschko is 40 in a few months you twit!

All Floyd does on the inside is grab and elbow the sh$t out of his opponent to negate their offense until he creates his distance to land his punches.

Get your head out of it before you come at me like that.

Tell me again all these things I should respect Wlad for?

Ahh, much better.

He was pretty damn scared of Povetkin if he felt the need to clinch him nearly 200 times.
