Lamon Brewster in the first fight showed how to use diminutive stature to beat him. (as opposed to the 2nd fight where he just appeared to eat a lot in training camp and come with a gameplan of walking around Wlad and never throw a punch)

There is also a doubt about Haye's ability to go 12 hard rounds. The feeling at the Big Mac (Enzo Macaranelli) fight was, If it went past 6 rounds, Big Mac would win. That theory has never been tested really.
However, Wlad's conditioning is suspect too. He gassed badly against Brewster, and looked very sluggish in the final few rounds against Ibragimov.
At least 6'6'', I think about 6'7'' actually.
Wlad can go 12 rounds if he decides the pace. Those that say Wlad was drugged in the first Brewster match should probably rewatch the fight and pay close attention to the body attacks. You have to take Wlad out of his comfort zone.

My opinion.
