14 quid n Box office, not a 4am start is it, or is it a reasonable hour?

 

Haye on points.

In Germany so decent start time, they don't let the yanks fuck em about.

 

Will be in the region of 10pm

 

 

Valuev late stoppage my guess

 

It's one of those fights that is hard to call beforehand, but within a round or two the result might be obvious

Really looking forward to this, been built up well with Haye's constant trash talk.

 

I'll have Valuev round 10.

Valuev will squash him inside 6.

 

He's simply too big.

Haye is going to get a severe arse kicking! oh well haha

this will go 12 rounds.

 

haye will have to be very good to get the decision, he's certainly capable at his best.

 

i think he's actually done the wrong thing trying to wind up valuev.

 

valuev will be the one hanging back IMO.

 

if anyone is expecting an exciting fight, check out valuev on youtube, it's not usually the case.

 

i'll be getting it though.

Haye's been winding Valuev up, because he knows Valuev would normally stay out of Haye's range, due to his longer reach.

The ploy is to irritate him enough into opening up to let Haye inside. Getting in close is Haye's only chance of winning.

yes, that's what i was saying.

 

valuev won't fall for those wind up tactics

Haye on points.

 

Imagine if he managed to knock him out and even just put him down - would be a classic highlights moment!!

Be a big number on the richter scale too

I'd love it if Haye knocked him out. Can't see it though, I think Valuev is around 8 stone heavier.

A good Big One will always beat a good Little One,but an Exceptional Little One will always beat a good Big One. My view is everyone wonders about how he's gonna do with reaching Valuev's mush but lets not forget that he's at the perfect hight to unleash a volley of body shots,if you can't catch breath your going down!I predict a 'Bore Fest' over by the 8th round,Haye by TKO!For the record ive had a quid on Valuev first round at 50-1. It matters more when ther's money on it!

Don't think his height will be too much of an issue, he's taller than Holyfield and he didn't do too bad in this division.

 

Chagaev who's beat Valuev is 2 inches smaller than Haye.

Just looked at their records on boxrec.

If you add together the two lightest fighters Haye has ever fought as a pro, their combined weight is only 25lbs more than Valuev's heaviest fighting weight on his own!

Indeed, he struggled (and some say he lost) against Holyfield who is a tiny HW and almost 50 years old.

 

Valuev is a manufactured ogre, designed to pull in the rubles for corupt management fighting has beens and nobodys.

 

Haye TKO in the 8th

I think Haye has the ability to beat Valuev but it's going to be a very interesting fight.

 

Anyone who thinks Valuev will be too slow to land a punch has never seen him fight. He has a quick left jab that is pretty brutal and throws as many punches in the 12th round as he does in the 1st - I mean that in a good way!!

 

For someone his size he doesn't have a punch to match, if he did there wouldn't be anyone on the planet to touch him. His KO percentage isn't high and he grinds opponents down with his jab and by leaning on them. His technical ability has improved in recent bouts but let's get it right, he isn't a top drawer world champion. Holyfield did enough to get a verdict out of the fight and he is light years from his peak.

 

I think if Haye adopts the same tactics as Holyfield, getting in close and landing 2 or 3 punches then getting out, he'll win comfortably on points as i think he'll hurt Valuev and tire him more than Holyfield did. My worry is that he will try and knock him out and expose his fragile chin.

 

Can't wait for the fight though, one of the most intriguing of recent times.

I'd love it if Haye but him on the deck!! Should be a good fight...

Looks like anytime after 10pm start now so he doesn't clash with X Factor

Will everyone who cannot live without watching X Factor just fuck off to an Island somewhere in the Atlantic and stop bothering normal folk, please!!!!!

valuev has never been down, so i think haye might struggle to finish him

 

i'll go for valuev late stoppage or points (possibly controversial)...would love haye to win though

Wasn't it Haye who wanted it starting a decent amount of time after X Factor because his part of the purse is dependant on viewing figures and he doesn't want to risk a clash? I think German TV wants to bring it forward but Haye is sticking to after 10

Yes, read the post from Northender just a little above yours.

Weigh-in coming up live on SSN shortly, could be interesting.

Haye's giving away 7 stone..

 

P.S, Don King is a bell end.
