Forget what your feel about Haye, what would YOU do if you could take an extra $15m for a gimme fight before a mega fight with a Klit? Or would you pass on the $15m and go straight into the mega fight?
If given the chance I can't see anyone on this board passing on that kind of money just to save face.
cant argue with that!
Re: Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow
Why the fuck is Haye saying Harrison don't deserve a shot? He is not his mandatory and he don't need to fight him if he don't want to:confused:

If it was just that simple...if it was just a clear cut "Take a $15m fight and THEN get the huge payday" then sure I'd take the 1st fight.
HOWEVER
Had I been calling out the champ for 2 years and disrespecting him then as a man there's only 1 fight I could make and accept and that's the big one vs the champ
The moral of the story is "Don't let your mouth write a check your ass can't cash" and that my friends is why I thoroughly dislike Chicken Little.

If you're going to quote paraphrase Top Gun, who in this fantastic camp-fest that is the Haye-Harrison merry-go-round is that minor officer who's only line is "I want some butts!"
My guess is the host of the press conference who's making this out to be the British heavyweight fight of the century. Personally, I'd rather watch Rogie Skelton again.
Re: Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow
I've never seen Harrison fight, so I don't know why everybody says he's terrible...but based upon some interviews, I'm pulling for him. Go Harrison!

I loath this matchup, but yeah, come on Harrison! Knock that gobshite off of his perch. :mad:
Re: Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow
I've now slept on the formal announcement of this fight and I have to say I feel a lot more positive about it this morning.
The press conference was hilarious, and the build up is really going to be something else in the UK.
Looks like I'm going to be on the phone to Ticketmaster for myself and MarkTKO.
Re: Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow
Haye and Harrison are both on Daybreak (ITV) this morning for anyone in the UK. Sat on the sofa trash talking each other - how very believeable.
Re: Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow
Haye has just said the Kitschko's don't treat him like a champion in negotiations. He says he's not one of these guys who will sign up to fight them and sign anything to do so.
Re: Haye/Harrison Press conference tomorrow
Mark my words, 6 months from now when Haye is fighting Evander Holyfield, the people that are defending Haye in this thread will justify that fight by saying George Foreman won the HW (lineal) title at 45 and a matchup with Holyfield is good.

I don't think many on here are defending Haye outright. But they understand the lure of $15m for fighting a man of Fraudleys class.
