How much you think Haye SHOULD get paid for fighting Vitali?

[TitoFan]

Just saw where Haye says he wants to fight Vitali, and admits he doesn't deserve a 50/50 split. Gee, really David?

Anyway, just thought it'd be interesting to see what everyone else thinks about this. So this poll is to see just that. The choices begin at 50/50 and work their way down from there, since I don't think anyone out there actually thinks Haye should be paid more.

On second thought, I added a choice for "Haye should be paid more". What the hell.... someone out there probably actually thinks that way.

30/70. To be a bit generous. He would deserve more if he would have manned up in his defeat agaisnt Wlad and didn't make all that empty yip-yapping.

Good, reasonable choice. I personally think we should start holding fighters accountable for their efforts come fight time, and voted "only if he actually tries this time". Sounds outlandish, but maybe this kind of thing would help boxing by making the fights better.

Yea I think he should probably have his training expenses and airfare covered, but the rest of a possible 15% purse would be on a performance basis

Vtali wouldnt get half as much for a fight with helenius and provetkin on the same night

therefore haye deserves a large wad of the cash

[LobowolfXXX]

Based on the entertainment value of his last fight, I'd say he deserves 50...

CENTS.

5 bucks

How often do big fights have fair percentage splits these days based on boxing merit and achievement alone ?

He doesn't deserve as much as Vitali thats for sure but as eric points out he is giving Vit a massive pay day too so deserves more for that . 40\60 probably in the right ball park

Yep, im in agreement with this, Vitali see's this as a payday, bigger than any other payday out there at this time. Haye has to take props for that, 60-40 in Vitali's favour would be fair in my eyes!

When you get down to it, why does clown even deserve a shot at Vitali Klitschko and/or his HW title?

[FinitoElDinamita]

30/70 is proper business..

They each should be paid 50/50 from HALF of the budget. The other half goes to the winner.

I was as disgusted as anyone else by Haye's performance against Wlad, but I still can't fault Vitali for giving Haye a 2nd crack at the Klitschkos.

Who else is out there? Love him or hate him, Haye sparks more fan interest than any other potential opponent out there. And he has more legitimate ability than the other contenders as well.

Does Haye have the same appeal in Britain/Europe as he did before the Wladimir fight? If he does then you are correct, but if not, he shouldn't get the same amount as he did to fight Wladimir. He got 50/50 for that one, right?
