Brewster: “Haye Has One Percent Chance of Beating Wladimir”
March 30th, 2009
By Chris Williams: Well, it looks like I’m not the only one that thinks that Wladimir Klitschko will be planting British heavyweight David Haye in the third round on June 20, it looks as if former World Boxing Organization heavyweight champion Lamon Brewster also thinks that Wladimir will win quite easily. According to Eastsideboxing.com, Brewster said that Wladimir Klitschko has a 99% percent chance of beating Haye, because Wladimir is a “natural born” heavyweight and isn’t someone that has recently moved up in weight like Haye has.
At least by doing that Haye know whether he had what it takes to beat a fighter of the talent Wladimir. Instead, Haye seems to be spinning a wheel, and taking a huge risk in hopes of striking it big with an upset win. If he loses, he was supposed to lose because of his lack of experience at heavyweight and his lack of size.
If Haye wins, then it suggests that Haye is a great fighter in the minds of some of his biggest boxing fans. A victory over Wladimir, even it does happen, doesn’t prove much to me, because Wladimir is already known for having a weak chin and he’s the type of fighter who’s at risk against any fighter with a lot of power like Haye.
Wladimir has already been stopped by Brewster, Corrie Sanders and Ross Puritty, so a loss to Haye wouldn’t be that much of a surprise for me. Brewster, however, doesn’t give Haye much of any chance unless Wladimir comes in out of shape for the fight, which isn’t going to happen because Wladimir never comes in out of shape.
If there’s anyone out there that knows how to beat Wladimir it’s Brewster, who stopped Wladimir in the 5th round in 2004. The victory for Brewster put him on the heavyweight map and gave him the WBO heavyweight title, which he successfully defended three times before losing to Serguei Lyakhovich in 2006.
Brewster lost in a rematch with Wladimir in July 2007, losing by a 6th round stoppage. However, it was Brewster’s first bout coming off a year layoff from boxing due to an eye injury he sustained in the Lyakhovich bout a year earlier.
Brewster would like nothing better than to get a rematch with Wladimir now that Brewster has picked up a couple of wins under his belt. However, for Brewster to do that, he’s going to have to beat a handful of other fighters in order to get a shot at Wladimir or whoever comes out on top of the Haye vs. Wladimir fight in June.
It would be interesting to see how Brewster would do against Haye should David get by Wladimir. Brewster can take a heck of a shot and keep coming. He also has excellent power and is a classic pressure fighter. My guess is that if Haye wasn’t able to take Brewster out in the first five or six rounds, Haye would find himself eating a lot of leather and ultimately taken out.
I doubt Haye would opt to fight Brewster unless Haye absolutely had to win Brewster being his mandatory challenger, because Brewster is all wrong for him.

I will be truly pleased with the writing skills in addition to with the format on your web site. Is this a paid for design or did you customize it all by yourself? Either way continue fantastic top quality writing, that it is uncommon to determine a fantastic website like this one these days..
lalalalalalalala, cover your hears and repeat that over and over to drown out listening to this lala idiot. haye is no better than arreola. haye should be fighting arreola. that way one hype job would be exposed and then the other could earn the right to lose to wlad. and haye will go the same way “these yanks” go, you know, flying to germany just to fall over in 5 rounds – except i doubt he’ll last 5 rounds. is there a brit alive that is capable of an impartial opinion when it comes to boxing and one of their own? the funniest thing about these brits is this fluff they create about why haye has a chance to beat wlad. how long did it take them to come up with this nonsense? haye has zero chance. it will be nice when these classless fools are silenced.
And if my auntie had a set of balls she’d be my uncle
I fancy haye for this one but accept that both men are big punchers with dodgy chins however hayes a bit more athletic and explosive. but vlads experiance and size (as well as considerable skill) can’t be ignored.
i can’t help thinking that a haye win would be better for boxing though as he could then fight Vitali which (incase you think im a haye nuthugger) i think he’ll lose or he could fight valuev who he would destroy either way its a unification bout so its good
Oh everone , Brewster was an ex heavyweight champion and he has said that Haye cannot beat Wlad so as he was A world champion he already knows the outcome. We are may as welll not bother watching it july 20th
Brewster suck chris
i say haye whoops brewster and vlad, but gets ko’d by vitali
Jamesy that vid was spot on mate!!! well said
i love this site it cheer’s me up so much tanx u lol…..
David Haye vs. Lamon Brewster for the shot to fight Wlad for the title.
a 1% chance is still a million times bigger than the chance Brewster would stand! idiot
I think it’s a bit scary to read this article.
It reminds me of the previous articles, they used to write about Wladimir.
Everybody, Wlad met, had a good chance of winning.
Afterwards when Wlad had beaten them easily, they were considered mediocre has-beens and bums, and it seemed to worsen the state of the hw-division and cement Wlads status as a fake, although his winng was based on carefully planned technically brilliant boxing.
Will that happen to Haye also, must it be an american, who is champion?
Afraid so, i remember Brewster was considered a journeyman before and after his win, but very shortly after that, he was considered the saviour….
Wlad was never knocked out, he got up everytime.
Against Purrity he collapsed out of fatigue, but was close to getting knocked out,Sanders hit him with clan hard shots, that would have taken even Brewster out.
The first Brewsterfight looked like a fix.
I think Haye although much talented will lose, but if he wins, isn’t that an achievement?
What does the author want him to do?
Fight Vitali, Valuev, Chagaev and Larry Merchant at the same time?
Haye has no chance, he is good, but not that good, however it wont be in three, he is out by the 6th-8th round.
Yeah – this is crazy. as you all pointed out. Doesn’t matter if you like Haye or not – this is utter garbage. 99% he’ll win, but it won’t be a surprise if loses. My man – you probably don’t do any sports betting:) because 99% is a slum dunk
i think haye could stop wlad early or burn out and be stopped in the later rounds or lose on points but i think if Vitali caught Haye he wouldnt get back up
What a pile of CRAP!!
Wlad is good fighter but is sooooo broing to watch, Haye on the other hand is a good fighter but very exciting to watch. Haye has what it takes to beat him!
GOOOO Haye.
U SAID HAYE HAS NO CHANCE AT ALL OF WINNING, BUT IF HE WINS U WONT BE SUPRISED…… LOL WOT THE HELL DOES THAT SPOSE TO MEAN!!! LOL THAT IS HINESTLY THE MOST STUPID COMMENT I HAVE EVER EVER HEARD!!
how can you say you think haye has 1% chance of winning and then go on to say you wouldnt be surprised if haye won. This article shows that this guy doesnt know much at all about boxing. Yes Lamon Brewster is good boxer but it way off his best and at this moment in time haye would destroy him no question. Remember haye is ranked 4th best heavy already so why trying to say he is not good enough? he was too good at cruiserweight so the onyl way was up and show what he made of
Thats a confusing contradiction,
“I’d have to agree with Brewster 100%.”
that Haye has a 99% chance. Yet…
“a loss to Haye wouldn’t be that much of a surprise for me.
I don’t particularly have a lot of knowledge in boxing myself but I know what I like and I really like watching Haye fight. He’s an exciting fighter and so I hope he pulls on the belt after this fight.
“I’d have to agree with Brewster 100%.”

Haye on points then KO vit!
LOL this guy Williams why don’t you guys fire him cuz he talks like a amateur
haye will ko wlad no bother,too fast to skillfull hits too hard.end ov
Cuz these moronic, biased, factless, bitter article writers are funny?
Ridiculous yet again!!! why oh why do i visit this site??!!!…
Quality stuff Christine Williams.
Basically your saying Haye has no chance what so ever, hes not big enough, good enough or experienced enough. But if he does win your guna give him no credit for it cuz Vlad has a weak chin??????
What I find interesting about most Klitchko bouts is that his opponents seem to have no gameplan on how to get close enough to hit him. It’s almost as if they trained to fight someone their own height or shorter. Let’s see if Haye is any different.
“I’d have to agree with Brewster 100%. Haye’s too small, hasn’t fought anyone and seems to be taking a big gamble against Wladimir”……….but………”A victory over Wladimir, even (if) it does happen, doesn’t prove much to me!”
Classic, impartial analysis Chris!
feck i hope the bookies follow brewster i might just have a flutter
What would be the point in haye working his way up just to lose?? he has said he will retire if he is not good enough , give him the credit for talking his way to a shot ,,
personally i would love to see haye win but i just cannot see how ,,, unless wlad come to fight and not jab us all to sleep ,,
Brewster is another never was american has been ,,
i have watched brewster fight on many occasions and am just wondering what you have seen in him that makes you think he can outwork anybody let alone haye ,”brewster is a classic preasure fighter” i suggest you go and watch his last fight ,, plodder more like , he would struggle to out work butterbean lol
haye will win wihin 5 rounds..too fast, hits very very hard and is hungry…unlike these yanks who fly over to germany for a million dollars then fall over in the 5th the hearless pathetic cowards.
Arreola will go the same way… haye is much more athletic, faster and powerful. so just beacuse he has looked good against slobs do not think he is going to be a world beater coz hes not. Fair dues, he would eat most of the worlds heavyweigts but not beat them!
