Valuev WTF! I generally baulk at handing more money to those bastards at Sky, but I may do the box office thing for this!
I'm just curious as to whether Haye will still have any power in his punches throwing them up? You can't put your shoulder into punches properly at that angle.
Haye can beat him. I reckon he could have beat Wlad before his injury so he can beat Valuev. He's just got to avoid a big punch, Haye still has the power at heavyweight he needs to utilise his speed and quick hands. One thing is he's not got a great chin as we saw when he got caught by Barratt before he got up and finished him off and Barratt took Valuev 11 rounds btw Haye done him in 5 and could have finished it before then. Ring rustyness could be a factor though having not fought for a year. He'll be well worth a punt on it and i hope he comes back with a win. I like Haye despite his cockyness he's a good boxer and he's what that division needs. He usually backs up his taunts look at what he did to Macarinelli when nobody thought he would destroy him. Should be a good fight.
Definately going to watch this like. I can imagine Valuev to have been bulit in a lab like Ivan Drago
Also look at how shite macrinelli actually is, i dont think any expert in the world could pick a 100% winner from this fight like, its just such a weird one
I'd be very suprised if Haye wins. I quite like Haye but he's out of his depth against this big cunt.
Why is he? Valuev is big and he's slow. He was poor against Hollyfield whos about the same age as my gran. Haye has the speed to trouble him he's powerful as well, It's just the sheer size that's going to cause him problems due to Valuevs reach. Valuev hasn't really fought anyone difficult to beat in his carrer either. He's avoided the Klitchkos and hasn't fought Chagaev and only fought other slow heavyweights. Haye will see all of Valuevs punches coming, if he could avoid Cruiserweights punches for the most part he can avoid peole much bigger.
Even worse than avoiding him as Chagaev isn't even that good himself but hes better than Valuev. I still think Haye will beat Valuev, and can beat Wlad, not sure about Vitali mind.
i think haye's got no chance of beating either klitschko, defo's not vitali. there just too good and effective at using their size and reach advantage could beat valuev like, i think he will as well any one kno what time the fight actually starts
yeah he did, his only loss apparently. I've never seen the bloke fight myself, but I can imagine him being a bit of a pudding.
It's in Germany so will probably not too late. about 11-12 UK time i reckon. You watching Frcoch and Taylors fights tonight Dougy?
was supposed to be having everyone round to watch it tonight ive got virgin media tho and its only been shown on sky which is absolutely shite proper gutted, been looking forward to it for ages
