Vitali offers Haye 50/50 split and will fight him in England. Lets get it on now Haye

I joked about the Chisora fight, but for Wlad the Chisora fight is actually pretty huge. His UK fan base is growing because of Haye essentially promoting him, so a stylish win here will be watched by Hayes UK fans, it will compound a problem for Haye as people will want to see him fight Wlad and will cheer against him.

Yup and you know all the uk gutter trash tabloids are going to get behind ol del boy for this.

Turns out Haye no longer NEEDS the Klitschkos.......
...... now that he's slayed the mighty Harrison.

Oh at last the heavyweight division is saved!!! Just as he had predicted!!!!

My question is:

Does Haye's win over Harrison INCREASE? or DECREASE? the probability of a fight with one of the Klitschkos. And why?

He wants to retire.....I'm sure the Klitschko's will find it in their hearts to oblige him whether it means losing money in the short term or not

Didn't really fight Harrison though. Just knocked him out.

I can't decide who would be best for Haye, but an ageing Vitali should be slower, which would suit Haye's speed. He is elusive for a heavy weight, he would try and frustrate Vitali by not letting him land a shot.

It depends...which one does he want to knock him out?

Vitali gives you a full 12 round beat down these days with his "aging" and all and Wlad will probably do more damage and stop you a bit sooner

It decreases. Haye just made tens of millions fighting Harrison, so what does that tell you?

Also, Haye just called out the Klits again saying he's going to do a Audley Harrison on them. We've seen this act before. Call out the Klits then line up a fight with some bum and make tens of millions. My next guess will be he fights a Holyfield or a Tyson Fury and puts it on PPV. Then Haye calls out the Klits again, rinse and repeat.

I dunno about that, there's nowhere else for Haye to go now other than a Klit. There was nowhere for him to go other than a Klit before Harrison but the UK general public swallowed that purely because of Harrison's profile.

Haye becomes a joke if he avoids the Klits now and deep down he knows it. You can guarantee every single person that meets him now will ask him the same question, 'when you fighting a Klitschko?'

There's too much money and pride at stake for there to be any other outcome, Haye WILL fight a Klit in 2011. Which one doesn't matter, if it ends up being both it will rejuvenate the entire division.

Also, whether he'll admit it or not, Lyle will be more excited for this fight than any other in recent memory. The Haye hype machine has worked ;-)

[smashup]

Said all along Haye can beat both Klits.

Can 100% see him getting the KO over Wlad and using Valuev style tactics to beat Vitali.

Vitali has a Solid chin so i think he'd have to use his speed on him but think he has the Power to test Wlads suspect chin.

Really don't see either fight as a big problem for him.

They'll both come down to his tactics on the night.

[El Kabong]

Go ahead and hype up the Audley Slayer, but just be warned when you start talking Klitschko's it's a different world. Wlad or Vitali will actually throw punches....and from the looks of their KO percentages once those punches start landing I don't think they are going to tickle. But that's just my view, you guys build up this guy all you want, I'm just saying I won't be surprised with the outcome.....should he decide to actually fight a Klitschko brother.

...Audley Harrison, I mean who knew he could be KO'd like that? Round 3 and everything

And now people say he's got a "good" to "great" chance of beating a Klitschko based on that performance.....you must'a lost your damn minds.

Of course he is, Haye is the only HW in history not to have a punch land on him for 2 rounds in championship history. Not even Dempsey, Louis, Marciano, Ali, Foreman, Holmes, Tyson, Holyfield, and Lewis can claim that. Fact.

[mrbig1]

If it is a true 50/50 split then the fight well be made. Or Vitali is full of shit. This will be by far Vitali be biggest payday. He should take the fight and retire a rich man.

...he shouldn't get paid that much for this it's not going to be a challenging ask for him.

1 guy has never been knocked down and has KO'd 88% of his opponents...meanwhile the other fella just "fought" Audley Harrison
