Cant wait for this grudge match, Not many are fans of both but it's stupid for Chisora taking this match and it's even stupider to run around thinking he's actually good at what he does. He claims he'll knock Haye out.. Give me a break I wonder if he's actually sat down and taken a long look at David Haye's wins because only two of them have went the distance. The guy is a knockout machine and when it comes to Chisora it's just waiting to happen.

Haye by KO.

Khan vs Garcia, Don't believe all the hype the same way we bought into Carl Froch as an underdog, this guy is the same, Champion of fighting unknown trash, Khan will make a joke out of him.

Chisora humbled

adzii_nufc · 14-07-2012, 22:40

Prediction was spot on, Strong message sent to Vitali tonight, Don't be surprised to see Vitali take a typical crap fight and fob Haye off. Fact is Haye keeps banging on the door.

12 rounds we seen Vitali and Chisora prove nothing. Haye just destroyed Chisora.

TheDon · 14-07-2012, 22:47

Problem is Vitali would be an entirely different fight.
Chisora wanted to fight. The Klitschkos have shown time and time again they don't really want to fight, and are happy plodding around the ring jabbing their way to the final bell.
Haye fights best against someone who will throw a few punches and leave him an opportunity.

adzii_nufc · 14-07-2012, 22:55

Which is why Haye has to go in with nothing to lose and just throw those punches constantly.

I dont think we will see Vitali for a while and I dont think he'll take the fight.

You can't against someone with that big a size advantage on you.
Your speed counts for nothing when you have that much extra distance to cover, he'll end up coming in onto a jab constantly.

He'd need to sucker Vitali into a fight, leave himself open, tempt Vitali to throw a few punches to give himself an opening. If he just tried to rush at him throwing punches he'd end up losing 99 times out of 100.

Was it a good fight? I don't like either of the 2, but had hoped Haye would have beaten Chisora. Now all I need is for Amir to win tonight and I'm happy. Got it on to record, so hopefully I will manage to avoid the result until watching tomorrow afternoon.

It was probably one of the best heavyweight fights of recent years, although that's not really saying much.

Definitely worth a watch if you can get hold of it. The last round was a thing of beauty from Haye.

Thanks, will try and get a copy somewhere.

Its seems Knan is the one who is the joke after losing in round 4.

I think Khan should retire before he seriously gets hurt. He took masive punches last night and was all over the place. I don't think he can handle the "top level". I like Khan and have watched all of his fights, including the Olympics in 2004. He's going the same way as Enzo Maccarinnelli

He is a bit like Haye where it is all talk but not much substance.

thenry · 15-07-2012, 14:34

nasty blow totally fecked him. Garcia done well to stay in the fight and even counter punched then found his reward for sticking in there.

was it a lucky shot or does Khan lack self control in the sense of protecting himself. i understand he was on the front foot and all but be a little more cautious ?
