The consensus that he has ducked Tyson Fury and that he truly is afraid of losing to Tyson Fury.
Haye has been in the game too long to have just under 30 fights even. He has been a pro since 2002 and has 28 fights. Fury and Chisora have been in the game since at least 2008 and they have over 22 wins, Chisora with 24 and Fury with 22.
I think Haye fought Chisora because Chisora's style was tailor made for Haye. Short, little punching power and a little bit of a brawler. Fury would have presented more of a challenge with the height and a bit more power on top of a little bit of hand speed.
Haye doesn't want to fight anyone of any consequence. He "says" he wants another title shot, but has never responded to the call to fight Vitali and he doesn't seem to be making a lot of noise to fight Wlad again. So, what is it?
Haye is out of the game, effectively. It's pretty much a wrap and we won't see him in any "meaningful" fight against any top European or American prospect ever again.
It's effectively over. Besides, he said he wanted out by the time he was 30. So, let him go...
