Apparently this fight has now been confirmed, venue still to be agreed. People with more boxing knowledge than me - can Haye win?

Which Klitschko is it???
The thing with haye is that he is ideal at light heavy imo and when he fight's a quality heavyweight his overall size and chin could really let him down.

It's gonna be Wladimir and it's more than likely gonna be somewhere in Germany as that's where the brothers are based

Im by no means an expert but i've got a feeling Haye could pull off an upset here, he's a powerful puncher and much quicker than most heavyweights. Some question marks over his chin so i reckon he'll have to knock out Wlad within the first 6-7 rounds before he gets caught off guard himself, especially since Wlad is around 4 inches taller and a naturally heavier person. Once thing i'll say about Haye is he's still relatively young and he's hungry, just checked on wikipedia and Wlad has been fighting guys in their mid thirties for a few years now. Dont think he'll have come up against anybody with Haye's speed in a while. As usual Haye's loud mouth is brimming with confidence:

Quote:"Klitschko's last opponents were cowards and I will knock him out and take his belts back to London. I guarantee I'll knock him out in spectacular fashion. I'm his worst nightmare.

"That's not all, I will also go and get Vitali [Wladimir's older brother, who holds the WBC title] belt. None of them can stop me. The new world heavyweight champion will soon be David Haye.

"I'm a man on a mission to save boxing from this Eastern European invasion of Ivan Drago clones. The clean-up operation starts with Wladimir on 20 June."


lol it makes him sound like a tw@, but to a certain extent i think he needs to be to establish himself as a top heavyweight.

I like Haye, he has a big mouth, but he is prepared to put his money where said mouth is. No messing about, get in there with the best fighters and see what you're made of. It's a refreshing approach and one that is unusual these days.

As for the fight with Wladimir, it's an intriguing one, which again is just what heavyweight boxing needs. Haye is quicker, technically better and I think (although it has yet to be tested against a guy that size) that he has enough power to knock Klitschko out if he catches him with a couple of big punches. The big problem is that he will struggle if Klitschko catches him with a few. One way or another, I don't see it going the distance. From Haye's point of view, he needs to finish it in the first half of the fight. The longer it goes, the greater the toll the size and strength of Klitschko will take.

After reading what he said I don't want him to come back with a head. He's sounding a little like the new A-Harrison.

I totally couldn't spell Harrisons first name so just put an A






YEAH LIKE WHATEVER!

Audrey? Not that hard to spell.

Haye is allowed to talk big. When "A-Farce" has been undisputed world champion at any weight he can shoot his mouth off a bit more.

See I thought it was Audley. And that just didn't look right so I wen with A. I also thought he was known as A-Bomb which shows how little I know about boxing really. I should shut my jive trash talk and get on the next flight to Iknowsnuffinsville.

Definitely Audrey. Checked on wikipedia and everything.

Trash talk makes the world go round. True story. Some people reckon it's residual spin from the solar system's formation. Don't know nowt them. trash talk. Fact.

Keep up the good work.
