I'm excited to see how it ends up.
Haye was a -200 favorite last week but now is just -120 so it seems like people are jumping on the Valuev bandwagon late.

The title fight (dependant on length of undercard) is expected to start in about 2 hours.

I have read a lot of opinions of past British boxing greats this week and they are largely mixed in opinion on Hayes chances.
I think Lennox Lewis probably gave the fairest enough judgement when he said that Hayes best chance is to throw quick combinations and then back out of their and try to decision it. If he goes in trying to throw bombs expecting to knock a man 100lbs heavier out he might end up coming unglued a lot quicker than he might think.

Ruiz looked pretty good in there.
More active as a fighter than I've ever seen him

If Haye is dumb enough to head-hunt, he'll lose.

War Walujew! It is unfair not to say the least, have one 100 kilo plus on top of haye, who was fighting small and littler much not near nikolai. Steven round 4 plus knockdowns or punch out

Valuev bandwagon? Haye hasn't proven anything yet. He is just a sloppy fighter with a weak chin and a big punch.. and an even bigger mouth.. nothing on his record suggests he is any better than Clifford Ettienne, Jameel McCLine, or Liacovich.

He should be a heavy underdog considering the disadvantages he faces physically and the fact that he has yet to demonstrate the skill necessary to overcome those disadvantages
