    Default Haye was 'up for' Klitschko fight in December

    Haye 'up for' Klitschko fight
    by Mark Doyle, 28 October 2008

    Wladimir Klitschko is searching for a new opponent for his December 13 date in Germany - but David Haye has already been ruled out of the running.

    IBF/WBO/IBO heavyweight champion Klitschko had originally been scheduled to fight Alexander Povetkin but the undefeated Russian confirmed on Sunday that he had to withdraw from the contesst because of a foot injury.

    That led to speculation that Haye could be granted an unexpectedly early shot at Klitschko, a fighter he has repeatedly called out.

    However, the Briton’s manager, Adam Booth, has revealed that even though The Hayemaker, who will take on Monte Barrett in London on November 15 in a bout being shown LIVE on Setanta Sports, was willing to take the fight, there were two significant stumbling blocks.

    ”I spoke to the Klitschkos about December 13 but they wanted more time. We would have been up for it but David is not yet ranked high enough by the IBF,” he is quoted as saying by The Mirror.

    Haye revealed on Monday that a bout with Klitschko is more likely to happen next summer.

    ”I spoke to the Klitschkos about December 13 but they wanted more time."

    More time to put off the inevitable - getting KTFO by the Hayemaker.

    i dont how real that is coz apparently according to steve bunce who is an english boxing pundit haye was offered the fight against samuel peter but turned it down over "money"...imagine turning that down...what a statement/impact it would have made to knock out the wbc champ...obviously didnt fancy his chances....i think haye made all that noise about klitschko the 1st time just for press knowing full well he wouldnt get the fight

    Haye is a nobody in the heavyweight division right now....he hasn't even fought Monte Barrett yet and he's already looking past him to fight Wladimir Klitschko when Haye isn't rated by anyone worth a damn simply because he hasn't had a heavyweight fight.

    Haye doesn't want to fight Wlad...nobody does

    I think that is a bit far fetched, even you know in the back of your mind that David Haye has a GREAT chance of sparking out Wlad

    He was undisputed Cruiser champ before he moved up! ODLH, Floyd, Pacman etc... all moved up in weight several times between them and fought for a world title straight away and none of them were the undisputed champs of their previous weight division. So why were they not slated as 'nobodys' in their new weight class?
