    Haye was in condition, but just kind of under-performed 'But considering that he was a cruiser weight, looking back he fought quite well' Look at the speed of both guys in there. 'I think both Haye & Kiltschko at their peak would of beaten all of these guys'.

      Ruiz v AJ was worse because Ruiz wasn’t even prepared.

      Haye just wasn’t good enough to beat Wlad that night. Actually it wasn’t a good fight though, neither did a lot but Wlad did what he needed. Haye promised a lot but if you just weren’t good enough then there’s no shame in that. At least he prepared to try. Both guys were in great condition and very sharp. Haye just couldn’t get to grips with Wlad’s size and style as easy as he thought.

      Ruiz didn’t even prepare to give himself a chance.

        Ruiz did beat Joshua once.

        Haye didn't do anything he promised to do on Klitschko.

        Ruiz blamed the loss on his weight.

        Haye on his pinky toe.

          That pinky toe excuse will haunt Haye for the rest of his life.

            Ruiz was a bit of a letdown. It didnt bother me though. It was never about Ruiz weight, Ruiz from last night beats the AJ from their 1st fight just the same. But im disappointed a bit in the fact Ruiz wasnt motivated enough to be try to be the best he can be for what was the biggest fight of his life. He won the 1st fight, it left him a rematch and questions about AJ, Win the 2nd fight and hes confirmed everything and who knows what he gets next. Undisputed fight against a hittable Deontay Wilder?

            David Haye just couldnt handle Wlad Klitchko, couldnt get inside of the jab and wasnt big enough to get around the outside of it. If he took any risks he would eat a jab and maybe a nasty combo. He sorta went for it in the last round but it was too late. That was a very good but very ugly performance by Wlad and Haye just wasnt going to ever win that fight.

                Easily Wlad vs. Haye to me.

                Ruiz was a fairy tale story and i didn't expect him to win the rematch. It was course correction after a big upset and now the biggest fight in the division is back on the table.

                Wlad fighting Haye was one of, if not the biggest fight in the entire division. Haye talked sooooo much **** and then went out and really disappointed. Both he and Wlad looked bad that night.

                  Haye

                  Haye was scared. Ruiz was fat.

                    No one expected Haye to have a chance against Klitschko.

                    Ruiz is the bigger disappointment considering he had already defeated Joshua.
