Haye tickets ON SALE but no opponent named!?!?!?

This really has been as bad a start to a campaign as i have ever known

It's embarrasing for Haye and us Brits..
So much Hype and absolutely f*ck all delivered..
Are we sure that Frank Warren isn't promoting this incognito!
I was so up for going to this (if it was a top 10 opponent as we we have been promised not only by Hayemaker but by Setanta sports)
As i understand it Setanta won't screen this live if it isn't a name top ten ranked fighter against Haye so what exactly is happening is anyones guess but it's all being left way too late for my liking

This whole scenario is like a f*cking circus coming to South London.
Is Booth being exposed as a complete and utter novice with NO negotiating skills or experience?
He shouldn't be imo because Haye has fought succesfully at world level a few times in the past year.
Are the opponents simply sh*tting footballs at the prospect of facing Haye and asking silly money as to purposely price themselves out?
Or is it Haye who is scared of certain fighters and looking for the easiest route to Wlad K?

Imo one of these must be the real reason......

I think Haye needs to stop this promtion thing and get back to basics......You become a promoter when you retire not when you should be concentrating on your next opponent.....something tells me Haye needs to stop this soon or he may forget he needs to get in that ring and fight a top 10 heavyweight.....I can hear the excuses already when he gets beat before he fights for the title....."My mind wasn't on the fight cause of all the back ground politics"

Haye can become a good heavyweight but im not getting suckered in this im going to be the champ rubbish.....proof is if he can get through 4 rounds and still produce the knockout everyone is crying out for against a decent top 10 heavy......!!

The jury is well and truely out on this fella

Im sure it's all mind games by his fore coming fight "Chapman",im sure this fight will go ahead as plan.Both boxers, especially Chapman are milking the situation due to the fact that Haye is the new kid on the block.It's all MICKY MOUSE for sure.Dont believe the Hype

Agree with both of you and also believe he should pack this promoting bullshit in and knuckle down and get back to basics

He'll only do what he says if he's 100% focused on the job at hand and i don't think that he is at all.
All he needs to do at present is train his ass off and fight like a Lion

I don't think haye is scared of anyone, he really has no reason to be...the current antics are getting old but once in the ring the guy delivers, i think his problem is in his own world he a much bigger star than in the real word. Once again just based on my local friends and co-workers none of them know who the hell he is and that's his problem, i've said he needs to take one for the team knock the head off some bums then yell for the big stage..
