Uuunnnhh.....Not really Interested in this fight. First, Boxing is a dying sport, especially the Heavyweight division(s). Its corrupt, their hasnt been a superfight in 20 years. Boxing killed boxing. Way too many bullshit organizations, councils and federations, all with their own paper champ and all with their hand in the pie all handing out no meaningless belts in watered down weight classes. The only division worth anything is the Middleweights and thats only because of Manny Pacquaio. Once he retires, Boxing will go belly up.
Boxing is already dead and it died a slow death since MMA and UFC. Men like Don King and Bob Arum and every other crooked promoter cheated themselves out of a job and ruined the sport. Boxing deserves too die and I say good riddance.
Erm, Manny is a welterweight who fought once at LIGHT middle.
Klitschko is like the old style german amateur fighters who could jab but weren't very mobile.
He is a decent fighter, but not the quickest or most mobile.
Haye has fought plenty who were a lot bigger than him, but his speed, power and movement meant he could get inside their jab and hit UP, which is always more effective than hitting down which wastes a lot of power.
Might watch this one - could be a good fight.
If Klitschko can get his jab working (like nelson) and land a good shot he stands a good chance of stopping Haye.
However, if Haye gets inside his jab, he can take the big man down, especially with good lateral movement which can pretty much nullify the jab.
