    you actually want to see them fight each other?

    It would be horrible fight. Neither one of them would pull the trigger. They're actually really close brothers from all I've read. It would be 12 rounds of the lightest jabs you've ever seen from 250+ men.

    I don't really like to watch them fight, but I almost feel sorry for them in a way. They're skill and accomplishments will be written off because of the incredibly weak era they happened to fight in. Their size and skill level alone would've given alot of all-time HW greats hell (particularly Vitali because he has an iron chin)

    They did do a simulated fight in a movie, that I can't remember the name of. But your right, which is why this fight is so important. I hope Haye wins by knockout. It probably won't happen but I can at least hope.

    I expect Haye to come early and threaten with one or two shots, but then Wlad's jab will set the tone for the rest of the fight. Haye doesn't have the best chin in the world to begin with. Haye comes out fast, Wlad keeps him at bay and toys with him during the middle rounds and knocks him out late

    Man I hope you're wrong. It's getting tougher and tougher looking at either Klitschko fight. They are so boring. Seriously though, in the stare down in the ring, I hope Klitschko says "I must break you".

    Thats a perfect example of why boxing has fallen behind MMA. When you're flagship division continuously pumps out these **** shows known as title fights, how can you expect to keep viewer interest?

    So did Vlad actually win or was it homer judges.

    God the Klitschkos are boring.

    it was a legit decision

    Haye probably had more flops than landed punches

    Ultra-cautious 6'7" dudes are bad for boxing.

    Say what you want about Punisher, but he's never boring.

    He HAD to be ultra-cautious, the way Haye was flopping, and having Klitschko get points deducted.

    Notice, after the point deduction, Klitschko finally got smart, and started literally holding Haye UP, when he went in for the dive into Klitschko's crotch, so Haye COULDN"T hit the ground.

    Vlad won easily. Embarrassingly easy. Even with a bogus point deduction.

    He jabbed Haye relentlessly if delicately, landed one decent combination per round, and never got hit.

    Haye just kind of stood there and took it.

    It was an awful awful fight.
