Klitschko defeats Haye
The fight that every fight fan had been waiting for Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye did not turn out to be the sort of memorable match that was anticipated or hoped for
Basically while IBF/WBO/IBO heavyweight champion Dr. Steelhammer did not quite overrun the Hayemaker, it still was pretty much a one sided affair
In round one, Haye threw lots of power punches but didn’t connect. In round 2 Klitschko connected with some jabs but nothing hard. Both landed a few shots in round three and there was promise of better thing to come. Haye landed a clean shot at the bell to end round four. In round five Haye went for single shots and Klitschko got in with a good combination. In round six Klitschko stepped up the action and seemed to be in control. In round eightKlitschko was deducted a point for pushing down and referee Geno Rodriguez gave Haye a count after he went down in the eleventh. In the last round Haye got in with a hard shot but Klitschko fought back.
The final scores were 117-109, 118-108, 116-110.
In post fight comments; Haye attributed his poor performance to a broken toe that he says he suffered in training three weeks ago.
Klitschko commenting about the fight said; “He was very cautious. He was very difficult to hit. Just like Ibragimov. I really didn’t get challenged in the ring offensively. You know, like “let’s fight!” Instead he was fighting all of them…like all of my recent opponents. I would have loved to have celebrated my 50th knockout.”
Haye also said he was “very frustrated” with the way he fought, and credited Klitschko with having the perfect gameplan.

- Wladimir Klitschko and David Haye
Are set to meet in Hamburg, Germany this Saturday night in one the most eagerly anticipated heavyweight contests in years. In fact, in terms of its significance it is no exaggeration to place this fight up there with the epic contest that took place between Wladimir’s older brother Vitali Klitschko and Britain’s Lennox Lewis back in 2003, when Lewis managed to open up a nasty cut above the giant Ukrainian’s left eye that led to the referee stopping the fight at the start of the seventh round.
- “The Nightmare” Martirosyan
Undefeated junior middleweight Vanes “The Nightmare” Martirosyan (30-0, 19KO’s) is looking to secure a major fight this fall. The WBC’s top rated 154-pounder had his sights set on a Mexican Independence Day show down with Mexican star Saul “Canelo” Alvarez but that might not come to fruition any time soon. “Canelo and I would be a big fight at STAPLES Center. The place would be full of Mexican and Armenian fans. His style and my style go together perfectly and would give the fans the fight that they want to see,” said Martirosyan. Indications are that Alvarez will not face the Glendale, California, based fighter this year. With that news, Team Martirosyan is moving on and there are plenty of options in the loaded junior middleweight division.
- Marquez / Marquez Presser

Pavlik was recently almost beaten by Alfonso Lopez in a truly awful fight for Pavlik. He appeared to lose the fight in the minds of many boxing fans, and looked no better than he had in losing to Sergio Martinez last year. Pavlik is hoping to fight International Boxing Federation (IBF) super middleweight champion Lucian Bute later this year in a big money fight.
- Kingpin accepts Perez challange
“Congrats on winning the Prizefighter tourney. I was impressed. And, I am going to do you a favor and step up and accept your challenge if you are serious about stepping it up in competition. You and your team know how to get in touch with me. We’ve sparred plenty of rounds so you know what I can do and I know what you can do. And since nobody seems to want to fight over here in the US, I will come to you in the UK to get it done. I’m ready willing and able to meet you halfway. My phone lines are open and my bags are packed. You can even hit me on Facebook or Twitter. Let me know what’s up.”

Roach Says: Haye Could Defeat Klitschko
The world’s leading trainer, Freddie Roach, believes David Haye could defeat Wladimir Klitschko if he “undermines his confidence early in the contest” by starting fast and using his power.
In an interview with the ‘Daily Telegraph’ Roach said:

“The key to this fight for Haye is to take Wladimir’s confidence away, and do it early,” he said. “Take him out of his comfort zone.
“I think Haye has a great opportunity if he goes out there early and uses his power, and tries to take Wladimir’s confidence away. That’s the best way for him to fight this, but Haye needs to take that window of opportunity.
“Being forced anywhere outside Wladimir’s comfort zone is his greatest weakness. He does lack confidence as a fighter and we discussed it when I trained him.”
