Re: 2010 Boxing Thread
Since 2006 Haye has stopped 6 fighters within the 12 rounds. One was a first rounder and one was a second rounder, but as he's defending his title I can't see him going for broke so soon against Ruiz. All of his other stoppages since 06 have been in rounds 5-9, and you can get 5/1 on a KO/TKO between rounds 7-9.
Personally I think it probably will go the distance as Ruiz is so hard to stop (only happened once in 54 fights) and he fights so close and holds all the time. I've gone Haye on points/decision at 5/2.
