Haye v Valuev

[InishGael]

Any thoughts on big fight tonight? I see usual british hype going on with their big hope Haye being fav with bookies.
I can't see past a Valuev win though. The mans huge with only one defeat and never been knocked down. I know most of those opponents were donkeys but Haye isn't that special either plus he's moving up from Cruiserweight.
I'll have a few pound on Valuev anyway. If i had the money, i'd stick a couple of hundred on the 11/10 now widely available.

Haye is by far the better boxer, the only thing in Valuev's favour is his size. I expect Haye to school him like Hollyfield did.

Haye is looking immense at 230lbs and that's how a heavyweight should look, with no head movement I can see Haye hittin Valuev with some clean shots..

The only way I see Valuev winning this is if Haye gets frustrated and begins tiring himself out withthe big man leaning on him, but I have all faith in Haye taking this via Ko/TKO

if not I definately expect him to totally outbid Valuev, but after the Hollyfield fight will he actually get the decision inGermany? Well find out..

Haye to win is my verdict, I have a strong feeling Valuev will quit on his stool.

The only people saying Valuev will win are the media and the non boxing fans who have seen the height difference. If you doubt Haye, just watch Valuev on YouTube or something.. He's terrible

the brottish media ain't half made haye look like the underdog to big his victory up for the klitschko fight, easy win!

The art of boxing is to hit and not get hit, that's what he did, juSt like I said above..
I'm guessing your hatred is due to losing some coin on following the casual boxing fans opinion on the outcome?

Quite right Jambo, I really don't see how you can give Valuev rounds simply for walking forward and missing all the time. This is boxing, Haye boxed, Valuev missed simple as. The two judges who scored it for Haye were bang on IMO, I gave 6 rounds to Haye, 2 to Valuev with neither doing enough in the other 4.
