Klitschkos are very good and effective, but they don't excite the crowds. They have their system which is great for them and got them the titles. But Haye has more exciting style in and out of the ring. Which is why he needs to win. He can bring some attention back to boxing in the States. I'm sick of MMA.

Wlad just likes to throw the jab to break his opponent down and then there comes the right or the left hook and it's good night.


That's what I was talking about. I agree, they are better than anyone out there. Without a doubt. They have proven it. They are very technical and precise which is why they seem boring. But in 5 minutes, I'll be watching!

It's not like two featherweight Mexicans in the ring going toe to toe for 12 rounds with every impact sounding like a .22 going off. Those are fun to watch.

Alright off to HBO.

Wlad was doing his own hand wraps, never seen a fighter do that for a big fight before. Haye must've been talking shite about his hand wraps.

Well a degree in sports physiology and 55 professional fights and over a hundred amateurs you'd think he would have picked something up. I'm surprised too. Steward is one of the best wrap men in the business. He solved Hamed's hand problems, but then Hamed had head problems too...

Wow a wet ring. That should be an issue for Haye, but there's not much paint on the canvas so...

Oh yeah Larry Merchant on the call. Bet he's been in the biergarten. Nothing like a shitfaced Larry postfight interview.

Knew NOTHING about this boxing match, not did I realize it was on HBO, nor did I realize it's coming on now.




Anyone give me some brief cliff notes on the two fighters?

Haye the black one?

Klitschko is the reigning champion. Had stamina and chin issues earlier in his career but hasn't been beaten in 7 years. Awesome power and size.

Haye is a former cruiserweight who has been shite talking for 3 years to get this fight. Got his belt off John Ruiz and recently decisioned Valuez. He's quick and has power but is giving a lot in height and weight.
