    I had to laugh at Wladimir's wit again with his "I could not heard the David Haye, where was he " Klitschko's are funny dudes :D

    Man, they interviewed Haye on Setanta on the phone after the fight then and he made up for his lack of loudness during the fight. That guy doesn't know when to stop, it's unreal. He's still badgering the KO bros for a fight and says he's hoping for the deal to be made tonight.

    Steve Bunce is delighted of course and on 'watch this space' mode hoping for the fight to be in March! I still think Haye is all mouth though and will be taught a lesson by Vitali seen as it looks like Vitali who will fight Haye

    It comes across to me as desperation, he's like a little puppy dog yapping at their ankles. I think he's putting all his eggs in the basket of hoping that if he annoys them enough that they'll fight him just to shut him up.
    He's a tool

    I enjoyed the 'talk is cheap' comment they made to him, but seriously though I think him against one of them is perhaps the best heavyweight fight we can look forward to, at least it would probably end in knock out anyway!

    I must say I enjoy Haye though, entertaining both inside and outside the ring

    imo he's looking to get one of them in the ring asap in case he's kod by a lesser fighter.
    Haye vs Klitschko is the best fight out there at heavyweight, preferably Wlad. I can see Haye nailing him with a the right hand quite alot.

    Well it seems Haye is set to fight Vitali, and beating Vitali would undoubtedly set up a fight with Wladamir. Only problem is beating Vitali isn't exactly easy.

    The fight is agreed for June, they still have to sort out some routine small issues but it's basically done. Vitali just has to get over Gomez(should be easy enough) and Haye will presumely have another fight before this, so he'll just have to get through that.

    For boxings sake I hope Haye wins, a Vitali win means things go no further and the two brothers stay separate champions. Haye winning sets up a massive fight with Wladamir and we'll finally get for the first time since Lennox Lewis a true heavyweight champion. Wladamir has of course been the best heavyweight the past few years and on a pedestal above the rest, but he's never beaten the man considered #2 in the division at the time he was #1 and because of that it's a little difficult to call him champion.

    Just seen the news on Haye-Vitali after posting. Id much rather see him fight Wlad, probably because of all the hype he created and how much he annoyed him.

    Id say Wlad is going to look after his mandatories until then and make sure he keeps his belts.

    The Haymakse career is coming to an end, this is shame I'd love to see him stay clear of Wlad and Vitali for about year beat up some of the other HW's and work his way up to the champs.

    His first mistake is rushing the fight his second is choosing Vitali. He has an iron chin and will stop Haye midway through the fight.

    IMO he should go after Wlad first that fight is the "easier" of the two and then IF he wins go after the big bro.

    Fair play he has some balls targeting the two top guys but he will not win.

    Really? I'd consider Vitali to be the easier fight.

    Tis tough to see how Haye will get into range against these guys, particularily Wlad if he got that fight, interesting if he does, division needs a shake up.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,309 ✭✭✭T-K-O


    No way is Wlad the easier fight, sure he doesn't come forward as much as Vitali but that means he doesn't attack as much.

    Vitali has an iron jaw and I think he will take any shot that Haye can land where as Wlad has been know to go down and further into his shell when he is hit.
