I forgot how embarrassing this was for Haye, throwing himself to the floor and at the end bleating about his little toe, pathetic.

I remember I convinced my parents to watch this on ppv. They never forgave me.

i am british . but i have always had the upmost respect for vladimir . the quiet man .

Vatali & Wladimir Klitschko 100% gentleman of boxing.

Haye saying that the fight "is going to be as one sided as a gang rape" is one of the more distasteful things I've heard a boxer say about an opponent, and that's really saying something.

Broken toe, twisted ankle and i got my ass kicked because I'm not in Klitschko's class. This is what happens when you believe your own hype.

One of the purest examples of how much of a dirty, sloppy fighter that jerk actually was.

I'd rather Haye just say it wasn't his night than show his toe.

Nobody give klitchko the credit he deserves. He is a legend, one of the greatest boxers of all time. He wasn’t exciting or something special, but he was as big a man as ever boxed, he was also textbook perfect. He was a great traditional boxer, worked a heavy jab and could go the distance, it’s almost impossible to win against such a patient fighter with that ability and size. It’s why Lennox walked away when he did, he’d have had to fight this guy over and over, he beat his big brother and retired, he was old but wasn’t by any man’s struggling like others his age, it was the wisest retirement in history. Klitchko was a boxing machine and Lennox wouldn’t have gained anything by fighting him. Lennox retired at the right time before he became a punch bag like so many before him.

I was disgusted by Haye's trash talking beforehand. He fought like a drunk in a pub car park and got a schooling. He then came out with numerous bullsh*t excuses as to why he lost. He then went on to fight three no-hopers to boost his massive ego, before getting hammered twice by Tony Bellew.

"The small man with the big mouth", both hilarious and accurate!!

He talked a lot , ran the whole fight, and blamed a broken pinky toe

David Haye is just about the perfect example of overrated. The man was amazing at making excuses as well.

Haye looked like a last minute fill in as opposed to a legitimate contender.

"Well respected at the time,Audley Harrison". WTF. He was the joke of British boxing and nobody said he deserved to fight Haye.

He was a great cruiserweight, but didn't have the size to match his confidence against the elites of the heavyweight division. Usyk has shown it can be done, but takes exceptional skill and grit. Haye just had more talk than he could consistently back up in the ring at the top level.

I remember thinking Haye had a shot.....until I saw Haye in the ring waiting for Wlad to walk in......and in his EYES I saw a man that talked his way into fight he wasn't ready for. His mouth wrote a check he KNEW he couldn't cash.

You know you're dealing with a loser when he immediately starts making excuses rather than simply admitting defeat.

At the end of round one Haye realised he had very little chance of winning because he couldn't find a way to get close enough to land a meaningful shot.

So according to Haye he lost because he had a sore toe.......but maybe he would have won if his face hadn't punched Wladimir's fists so many times.

Wlad is truly one of the greatest of all time. His mind games, his terminator like build, his beautiful jab, his KO power and of course now a fighter for the republic of Ukraine.

No one was beating Wlad in 2011. There has been some fighters in their era that just wouldn't get beat. Holmes in the early 80's, Lewis in the mid 90's etc.

The idea that Tyson Fury would have had a problem with David Haye is truly ridiculous. Fury is too big, too slick and we know he can really take a punch. Based on what was in evidence in that Klitschko fight, Haye would not have been able to get to Fury and, even if he did, I doubt he could finish him. At cruiser weight he was formidable. At heavyweight, he was highly selective and, mostly, a good salesman.

Haye shouldn't have retired. His career wasn't buried at all. Wladimir was close to unbeatable at this point. He was in his physical prime and had Emmanuel Steward in his corner, someone he desperately needed against Fury and AJ. Haye was a brilliant boxer, and there's footage of him absolutely embarrassing Wilder in sparring. Wladimir was just incredible at this time, and is still hugely underrated. People don't want to admit his greatness, just compare Wladimir there to AJ, they're both the same size, but Wladimir's movement is just so much better, for a guy his size to bounce around against an excellent opponent for 12 rounds is something no one else has ever done - Fury's the only one to come close, although he was on steroid in some of his fights. Emmanuel Steward said Wladimir was the most accurate and powerful single punch knockout artist in history and had the best balance, footwork, and jab in history. He also said he's the most athletic boxer ever and more talented than Lennox Lewis. This comes from a trainer who's trained 41 champions in total and predicted that Fury and Wilder would be future world champions ling before they were. He said Wladimir was more talented, but Lennox was the best fighter he ever trained because Wladimir was too hesitant to throw punches and always needed to be motivated to throw punches. And that's exactly why he lost against Fury and AJ - he didn't throw punches against Fury for 11 rounds and didn't finish AJ when he was hurt. Emmanuel is a great man who was taken from us far too soon.

Klitschko brothers are example of great athletes, great fighters and gentlemans.. They will always be one of the greatest..

The way to handle a loss is the way AJ handled his loss against Ruiz. AJ praised Ruiz, said he was the better fighter that night and made not a single excuse. Then came back and put it on Ruiz.

"Ich werde ihn nicht besiegen, ich werde ihn bestrafen!" - Wladimir before the fight... "I am not going to win against Haye, i am going to punish him!" He did not need to punish him, he did it by himself!

Give Hay some credit - brutally knocked down a dozen times and kept getting up. He also showed pure guts for getting in the ring only weeks after hurting his little toe. He definitely showed why 'in his mind' he was the best in the world.

Vlad is such a gentleman, you cant help but like him

I've met David Haye, he's a massive guy. Yet he looks tiny next to Vladimir.

David Haye was a great fighter. Klitschko just made him look what he was. A cruiserweight

The mopst ridiculous thing was the people believeing in the hype because of Haye's trashtalk while it was sooo obvious that the fight was gonna be ordinary at best, a snoozefest at worst (which happened).

To be fair to Haye, he did come up against a Klitschko who was at the top his game and still had his sense of distance/timing and was still pretty fleet of foot compared to when he fought Joshua and Fury. Still not a great performance from Haye considering all the big talk prior to it.

Haye thought he would pull a spinks vs holmes lol...haye embarrassed himself bigtime !!

Haye absolutely bottled the biggest fight of his career. He talked all that shit then barely threw a punch all night. Embarrassing

I'm not a boxing fan, or I should say I thought i wasn't. This video might convert me, because I thoroughly enjoyed watching this and will definitely be checking out more of your channel. Excellent work! 👏👏 Scott 🤓🤓

"He's trying to turn this vast stadium into a flop house." -Larry Merchant LMFNAO.

I dont really see why this buried Haye's career. It was a lopsided loss but plenty of boxers have had worse defeats.

People slag fighters off but if you fight yourself winning is the easy part losing haunts you

Even if his toe was a big problem for him why go through all the drama of taking your shoe off to show everyone? It just comes off as such a lame excuse the more he talks about it. We’ve seen fighters with broken fingers and broken hands finish fights off without immediately showing everyone their injury. I’m sure if Haye had won he would’ve never mentioned that his toe was bothering him.

Haye made the one crucial mistake.. he let is own hype go to his head!

Haye's victory was not getting knocked out.

Thank you for the effort, great vid!

I still remember the shirt he wore with both brothers heads ripped off. Both Wladimir and Vitali were angry because there mum was so upset about it.

Don't you just love boxing after Dark he doesn't just show a fight and ramble on he gives you so much great information from behind the scenes! PS I'm a subscriber you should too!

David was not after the fight, he was after the losers purse, but to get that purse you have to hype the fight.

Klitschko was a fantastic HW fighter, very experienced and in his prime here. He was also huge. 30Ibs heavier on the night, super athletic and much taller. Most importantly, he also knew how to bring all his physical advantages into the fight and make them count. Haye was a skilful fighter but he looked like a guy bringing a knife to a gun battle here.

Amazing video! And major props for the Middle Earth OST :DD

Great channel.. Subbed!

Subbed. Legit channel

Deepest respect for any man or woman who would step up in a boxing ring... 🙏 ❤

As soon as I heard the Shadow of War and the Lord of the Rings soundtracks I just had to follow this channel!!! Awesome video 🔥🔥

Classy performance from the Hayemaker. I especially liked his rabbit punches, elbows and falling over. It was a lucky escape for Dr. Steelhammer that Haye hurt his lil' piggy toe or it would have been a different story!

David Haye raising his hand at the end of the fight - even his mum knew he had been outclassed lol. Why do we have so many journeymen British heavyweights that think they are world beaters? Thank goodness for Fury to restore some pride in the British heavyweight scene.

Great boxing channel, just subscribed.

Yeah, great video, man. Thank you. Pretty much how the Klitschko Era went. Thank god we have a handful of really great heavyweights right now.

I used to be a bit of a fanboy for David Haye back then and i was gutted he lost this fight at the time because i really wanted him to dethrone the boring Klitshckos. Now i look at Haye like he was a bit of a fraud and just talked his way into this fight for a payday. Haye was a decent crusierweight though.

No shame in losing to a prime Klitschko, especially as a smaller man.

I admire the calm demeanour of the klitchskos

Hell yeah dude what a great video

Vlad's speed, movement and tank were very underrated.

" Haye lands a jab. There's a rarity."😅

i could listen to that song in the background for the fights on a loop for hours. what's the song anyone know?

Great channel ...thank you

EXCUSES EXCUSES EXCUSES 😂😂

I never realised it was his little toe! Man, such adversity! What a brave little soldier even getting to the final bell. Dude had firepower - only way he was going to win that fight was to tear it up and he bottled it

Soccer Flopper, that was priceless commentary.

lmao the subtle 'david versus goliath' music in the background had me goin

Klitschko.....what a class act and an ambassador for the sport, great to see gutter mouth Haye get a boxing lesson.

The problem with David Haye is (or was).., David Haye. Incredible CW! But nobody outside of real boxing followers know what CW is. He needed that HW belt to cement his financial freedom and legacy (as Prize Fighters deserve) but couldn't accept his short comings. Toe or no toe, he was never going to outbox Wlad.

Music choice was 10/10 for the intro. Peligro 🔥

4:00 - that Shadow of War music playing in the background, epic!

Haye-What a Helmet !

Haye let it bury his career could have handled it differently

Great video. Thank you!!!!

Thks mate, I enjoyed this video

This fight was so one sided lol just like Haye said at beggining in interview with Harrison!!

I honestly like both these fighters, anyone who had actually watched Haye up through cruiserweight could see something was wrong with him that night, it may not have made a difference but I do think Vlad would have had a much harder night than he did. When Haye showed his foot it was clear something was wrong, but in boxing you just don't do that, you give your opponent the respect that they deserve for their win. I did hear Haye on the radio a few days after this fight and I honestly remember hearing him say "He didn't beat me coz of my toe, he beat me coz he's a better boxer than me"

One of the most bizarre examples of excuse making in boxing history perhaps… Pazienza’s caffeine crash against Roy Jones also comes to mind

Haye was like, why is the floor dammnn slippery 🤣🤣

Haye was a better boxer than he showed that night. Maybe he started to believe his own hype and brought the wrong attitude, but he wasn’t his normal self. No disrespect to Wlad though. His jab was too quick for Haye and he made Haye look the like the cruiser weight he really was. If Haye had just shut up afterwards and congratulated Wlad the loss wouldn’t have generated ridicule.

The Klitschko’s got a lot of hate, I miss their era

David Haye forever remembered for his poorly toe.

Haye lost because he predicted he’d win.

Fury seems to have been trying to model himself on Haye's verbal game. Not likeable but bankable.

Wladimir seems like a calm gentleman.

Haye was a genuine elite fighter. This fight made him look bad as he was outclassed but he was an ungracious loser

After all the tough man talk Haye runs for his life. LOL 8:52

Both Klitchkos were excellent boxers. Both all time greats imo

What is the name of song starts at 2:42 ? What kind a music is that ?

What is the music used?

Haye what a dope

Haye always was one trick pony...

His shorts are up to his lungs

"why is Haye raising his hand?" lmaooooooo

Haye had speed and he had power. He had a chance against Vlad because of those things. BUT he was afraid to get in and mix it up like Brewster, Purrity and Sanders - the only guys to beat Vlad in his prime - had to do. Instead he ran away all night and tried to pick up points here and there, which didn't work. And was a sad conclusion to all the sh*t he'd been talking.

I am not a Haye fan at all, but looking at the size difference clearly portrays the outcome of the fight before the fight ends. It seemed insane to me bringing up a giant vs a much smaller man in the ring and than saying that the giant won...

The funny this about thia fight was...Haye landed some shots, and was eluding Vlads jab..one of the weirdest fights ive seen

Two different levels of boxing skill. Haye didn't have a prayer.

Dr. Steelhammer beat Haye down just by saying "Flashy Flash" with crazy eyes.
