Klitschko v Haye

Looks like this fight might actually go off. I guess the third times the charm. So who you got? I think Klitschko sends Haye's head into the third row in the 4th round. Jab Jab Jab Jab for three rounds and then unleash the right and finish him off with the jab hook combo. Haye has talked enough shite to make this fight into something that I'm anxious to watch. The fact that it will be midday on July 2nd might mean it picks up some casual viewers.
Klitschko saying he will carry Haye for twelve rounds just to punish him both worries and excites me. It's nice to see Klit mad.

Haye certainly picked the right Klitschko, Wlad has the suspect chin between the two which gives Haye a punchers chance.
That said, I see Wlad wearing him down with a late stoppage.

I hope Haye wins, I think it would be good for boxing. I think his personality can bring some excitement back to the heavyweight division.

W. Klitschko's chin problems have been overblown. Is he as tough as Vitali? No Vitali is definitely the meaner (if not as talented) brother. Vlad's problems have really always been stamina related. The Lamon Brewster fight he punched himself out and just couldn't finish. Of course, there was also suspected doping in that fight since Wlad's blood sugar was dangerously low. Corey Sander's? Well he just got ktfo. He was fighting in a phone booth with a guy with a HUGE left hand and he got caught and didn't know how to survive. He had never been in that situation before.
Manny Steward has fixed most if not all of Wlad's problems. The one glaring problem that has come out as of late is Wlad not going for the kill like he used to. He's been content (ala Lewis) to sit back and just beat his opponent into submission. I don't see that happening this fight. I think Haye is in a world of hurt and won't make it past the mid rounds. Either way this fight isn't going the distance.

Haye gets demolished imo. Glass jaw + low gas tank = FAIL when in the ring vs. a Klitschko.

Wlad is too fundamentally sound. I think he will punish Haye. But I do want to see Haye win but only because Hopkins said he would fight Haye if he won and as crazy as that sounds, I still want to see it.

I'd like to see that too...but I'm sure there's some kind of clause in there that says if Haye wins, then he has to give Wladimir an immediate rematch.

Cool story I found today about Wlad.
I would really like to read his autobiography one day. I would be interesting to read a first hand account of the soviet "training system".

There was a veiled message in this for Haye, associated more with having the London street fighter about him. “I was 14 and I went away from home and fought my way through this Soviet sports school training system. Trust me, it was so tough and hard. Some of my room mates were broken physically and psychologically because they were treated by the coaches in such a brutal way. A really brutal way. In this system, either you were going to survive and you were going to make it, or you were done in. There were guys there who were a lot more talented than me. But some of them were broken by the system. If you made it through to the other side, you were made of steel.”
“These were my formative years in sport. We were teenagers, we had no parents around, and a pecking order developed. We were from Kazakhstan, Moldova, Kurgistan, Uzbekistan, from all over the Soviet Republics.”
“We were friends and enemies at the same time, because the rules were tough. The kids were brutal, there were no limits.”

6 Days until the fight.
Lennox's take on things...
Fury and Macklin's Take
Freddy Roach...
One more...
I still say Klitschko in the 6th or 7th. Haye can talk all he wants, but once he gets hit he will go into "Oh frick mode". If he think Klitschko is anything like Valuev he's in for a rude awakening.
