Slow start, pretty boring first few rounds, haye beeing more active, then it heats up and will be more entertaining, going full 12 rounds, close fight with klitschko beeing the winner :>

What the fuck is going on.

So it just finished. I was much less bored than I had expected, but it wasn't as good as I thought it could have been.

No clue on the scoring whether klitschko's win was deserved.

In the beginning it seemed haye was being pushed down a lot, but after a while he just dropped to the floor with minimal weight on his back. What was the point of this tactic?

Avoiding the right hammer of klitschko but klitschko does the same. Clamping and pushing the opponent down. Imo Haye is the better boxer.

better boxer? ROFL

He cant fight for shit. Flopping around like a fish trying to play the ref. Punches sloppy as fuck.

And now he's making excuses blaming a broken toe and ref bias or some dumb shit. What a faggot.

Couldn't agree more.

He was trying to play the ref by going down too easy, and he couldn't get past Klitschko's jab.

Klitschko had a solid game plan which Haye had no answer for, and now is whining and making excuses. Unsporting arsehole.

He is a dodging artist, his evasion skills are second to none... still I was disappointed with his punches, I mean with slightly stronger punches he could have easily won.

Imo Haye is the better boxer.

:D

i think the point was that he would rather go down on his knees quickly than risking a clinge, where klitschko's arms would without a doubt be resting on his shoulders and pushing him down. so every time he was in risk of getting in a clinge, he would go down on his knees immediatly, probably less exhausitng or whatever.

That's what I thought!

considering lennox & foreman said it will end in a k.o. I think my prediction was quite l33t :D

Both Klitschko brothers seem to be very likeable and smart, as they are PhDs, graduating from one of the greatest Ukrainian universities (I guess) :]

On the other hand, Haye is just a shallow, glib-tongued faggot, who hasn't shown anything interesting in this fight, apart from stupid, monkey-like moves.

I simply loved the part when Haye tried to imitate the way of holding left hand, so distinctive for Klitschko's brothers and at the exactly same moment he received two monsters punches from Wladimir. A rigid lesson of being a true man!

"as they are PhDs"

In physical education. Not rocket science.

also, they got them "for free", or so my russian friends used to say. it's a similar system to the us colleges and their athletes.

you're right, I've simply mistaken information given on wikipeadia, sorry :)

I like Wladamir a lot, even british people thought haye went too far, but at the same time, the heavyweight needed some drama.

There was no real shame for Haye losing. He lost yes, but given the size diff and expereince of Wladimir it wasn't as if either fighter was notably better. Its seemed to me a fight of physical bias that Haye could not win, as unlike Valuev, the other guy could box.

I was disappointed with the fight, though it was quite boring.

Problem haye has is he's only 30, he know stands to retire with no belts and will be remembered as a big mouth who lost.
Those videos won't go away, and seeing as Wladimir and Calzaghe were both world champs in their mid 30's there is and never was any real excuse for haye retiring. He's still a damn good fighter, but Klitskos are giants, most others are not that big, and that was davids problem. He could still beat most of the rivals, and rememberhe did move up a weight, he IS NOT a natural heavy weight.

I think he'll be back. His toe was fucked, but whether it made THAT MUCH of a difference remains to be seen.

Since Tyson left? More like since Emanuel Steward and Lennox Lewis arrived. There's no weight limit for heavyweights. You could be 1 million times bigger than your opponent, and it would be legal (unlike every other division). So what they did was take advantage of that. Get huge fighters, and use their size to their advantage. Tyson... he is tiny, like 5'10''. That can't work against someone 6'7''.

It's simple, intelligent strategy. What's more bizarre, is that the old way of fighting... with no intelligence present, persisted for so long.

Problem haye has is he's a pretty "generic" top 10 boxer, who in my eyes isnt meant to be a champion at all.

havent seen anything else besides this fight of haye, but..
all he has got is his unconvential boxstyle, kind of the drunken boxing at a carnival with all the attitudes and shit.

for me the klitschko is clearly the better boxer without getting distracted by all the mental stuff and the "inventive" style of his opponent.

i think you make it bigger than it is with all this haye will get back stuff. he got his chance, tried his best and lost.

and yes i feel fulfilled, cause i'm german and this fucking tv event was dull as shit but satisfying at the same time. next

"cause i'm german and this fucking tv event was dull as shit but satisfying at the same tim"

how can something dull as shit be satisfying? unless of course...
ur stupid

right

Match was boring, Haye was fucking horrible. lol'd @ hes punches, u see those kind of "hits" on a fucking club

Haye didnt deserve to get into this fight at all.

Cause of work i didn't see it, but recently i've been more into UFC than boxing, while some of the fights in UFC kind of sucks, there are some gold, that just makes it worth watching, like this one:

Check that one out :o)

both were seperated by one point. so this dicussion could easily have swaped the other way if he klitchko hat received one more punch.

how come?

the final results are: 117:109, 118:108, 116:110 in favour of Klitschko

Boring.
Also it's unwatchable on german free TV. Commercials after every round pretty much take away all the fun.

True. Wont watch any other fight on free tv. For the next fight I will try to find a good HD stream like the NBA League Pass. You could watch the final game there for 7$ which I think is a reasonable price. Anyone knows a HD stream provider where you only have to pay for a certain match/fight etc?

try paying for something for once instead of being a leech all the time.

buy pro so we can play aero/hektik/tox then :P pot-kettle brah :P

Dude, I play like the same hours of quake in a year that strenx does in a day. I'm not going pro!

after the rtl stream went down due to copyright claims ( Oo ) we switched to a polish stream, it was the same thing there but with a less retarded commentator :>



note: i did not understand one single word but it was still better then the german guy

pacquiao will win
