When is klitschko vs haye

He won't know how to react, will panic, attempt to run for cover and then realise big brother Vitali is in the corner mopping up tears with a white towel. As the two most popular heavyweights secure their fight plans, the "Tale of the Tape" shows Wladimir Klitschko has a marked advantage in build and in almost all physical aspects, except that Haye is four years younger than Klitschko, who is 34 years old.

Klitschko, who stands at 6'6", is 3. Most boxing fans outside of Germany have been waiting for Wladimir Klitschko to lose every time he steps in the ring. With fighter-after-fighter being said to be the guy who will take Klitschko out only to be destroyed by Klitschko, it seemed for awhile there that there may never be a formidable opponent out there to give Klitschko a real test.

David Haye is the real deal and possesses the skill and the power to take care of business and finally give Klitschko his first loss since April of With the fight being held in Germany the home country of Wladimir Klitschko—where he is a mega star—David Haye beating the hometown hero and being his usual cocky self could send the German fans into a riot—think Golota vs. Haye is already severely disliked over in Germany with all of what he has said of both Wladimir and Vitali Klitschko.

If he wins the battle, the fans could be a explosion ready to happen if Haye's lights their fuse. So if the action in the ring isn't enough to draw you to this fight, then maybe the possibility of a riot situation will be the topping on the cake to get you to watch the first mega fight in the heavyweight division in years.

He was down a lot of times in his career, I don't think he has a weak chin to the extent of David Price, Malik Scott, but I don't think he has a good chin because when he took a clean shot, flush on the chin, he didn't hold up well. True, and he is a good fighter, but I just think being a two weight world champion, holding 3 belts, makes him look a better fighter than he was, and he wouldn't have been a 3 belt champion had he been in a stronger era. I think Lebedev and Huck would have beaten a prime Haye.

Chisora, in , was the balance of young, fresh enough, miles hadn't caught up to him at all, but he was experienced at that point, if you watch his fights, he was faster, sharper than he is now. I think Chisora was at his between Haye and Pulev. Tue, Thu, Just read the Best I've Faced from Haye and some parts of his autobiography, and it's honestly embarrassing how Haye is so bitter and irritated about this fight and still refuses to give Wlad proper credit for the win, nine years after the fight happened.

It's like Wlad did a better job getting into Haye's head than Fury did, because this is a Khabib vs. Conor Aftermath level of embarrassment.

Average: 2. Saturday, July 2, So perhaps it's the best strategy to use. Apparently the stadium's not been coping well with the downpour.

Much of the pre-fight previews have focused on how Haye can beat Klitschko. This handy gallery , replete with the advice of those boxers who have done so, does the job pretty well.

But if we spin it round and focus on how the Ukrainian can beat Haye there's an obvious weakness. Haye's biggest worry, as far as I can see, is his tendency to drop his left arm.

While this makes it more difficult for his opponents to see his jab coming, it's a risky strategy against a boxer with such a devastating straight right. Unless Haye's feet are at their quickest, one little lapse could be all it needs for Klitschko to shut Haye's mouth and put his lights out. The Brit reckons he has a decent chin, he better be right. In his first title defence against a bloated and long-since-past-his-best John Ruiz, some of Haye's combinations were devastating , but he also left himself open.

A fitter fighter, such as Klitschko, would have tried to expose this. Afolabi has taken little more than two minutes of the first round to put the year-old Dunstan to sleep with a ferocious right hook, knocking his gumshield halfway across the ring and leaving his opponent stone cold.

This from our other man in Hamburg, Jamie Jackson. Fighters due to start the business at Here's some of the Guardian's heavyweights on the big fight.

He can be hurt. Haye will have to work hard to open him up. It's not often you see such a big fighter looking so lean and cut. Haye better have a good game plan or he will get destroyed if Klitschko is allowed to dominate like he usually is.

A warriors breakfast!. And did the warrior have for tea? Brown rice and steamed veg. Leaving hotel in 30 mins :- it's nearly TIME!!!! That kinda makes Haye a bit Guardian in my opinion. Maybe Angela Hartnett can give him some more veggy recipes so he can mix it up a bit. But here's a question for you: What was the last truly exciting heavyweight fight?

I'd say the nasty buildup to the Lennox Lewis v Hasim Rahmen rematch made for a tasty scrap. And while the fight itself never went further than four rounds, Lewis's vicious combination on 1min20sec to avenge his defeat to the Baltimore boxer was worth the hype. Haye burnt himself out after four rounds and resembled the "fat guys" he's bad-mouthed as he stumbled through the fifth before being stopped. It really is surprising seeing Haye so statuesque.

He relies so heavily on his movement. Millwall and Doncaster Rovers among club names on cross of St George flags. I imagine that would probably pump Haye up for the fight more than intimidate him. It's a bit embarrassing sending your big brother in to stand up for you. Apparently Emanuel Steward takes 30 minutes to wrap each of Klitschko's hands.

When I wrap mine I take about three minutes! After breaking his fist on Valuev's iron jaw in the first round he had the wherewithal to completely change his gameplan and still get the victory. I also agree with you about the trash talking but I think Klitschko's too intelligent to fall for it. I'm squirming with excitement at the prospect of this fight. Or I may have worms. That thought's gonna make me wriggle through this fight. Paid for fight on line but still no sign of it!

Good one Rupert! So a sincere nice one Rusbridger! The ringside seats have become the plastic poncho enclosure. In the stands, the poor are dry,' tweets Paul Hayward. Are they gonna have a scrap? That'd be pretty entertaining. It seems the two legends of the ring aren't going to have a fight. And furthermore, everything they are saying is dubbed in German so I have no idea what just happened.

It was all pretty pointless unless you're German. I If you are let me know what they said. I can tell you that Lewis was wearing a nifty little porkpie hat, though. Haye has done the same and refused TV access to his dressing room while Klitschko has been welcoming guests as if he is in training to be the next Terry Wogan. I really hope the fight starts soon so I don't have to look at this much longer.

Here comes Haye. That's not the song that greets Haye, but the images of Beefeaters and red telephone boxes that precede the Brit's entrance. The fans are not loving this.
