    C'mon Master, you cannot be serious. Do people not realise how good a fighter Haye is? He is the 3rd best Heavyweight in the world. Seriously, outside of the Klitschko's, I don't see anyone beating him. Not Povetkin, not Huck, not Adamek or Cunningham, and certainly not Fury and Price. There is a massive difference between looking decent against lower level opposition and fighting someone with the skill to fight back.

    2nd best! No way Vitali can live with his pace.

    It was unfortunate against Wlad because I believe Haye could still beat him, he was just afr too cautious.

    OK maybe I went over the top but you are over exaggerating how good Haye is, There is a reason why he does not fight often. That is because Haye is not a confident heavyweight, he knows he is one punch away from getting KOed.

    Why does Haye not fight regularly then? He stands a better chance being active but chooses to go on celebrity shows and semi retirement instead.

    I honestly believe money and fame, more fame than money though. He doesn't seem to be interested in boxing. If he fights people that aren't that big he doesn't get as much notice fame wise or money as he would if he fought V Klitschko. Which is the biggest and most paying fight for him.

    Just my theory.

    People slag Haye because he's mouthy and he spends more time talking than he does in the ring. But if you look at what he has achieved when he has fought, it is hard not to be impressed. As a fight he has all the tools and keeps himself in peak physical condition. His speed and power are superb for a Heavyweight and I honestly can't see anyone outside the Klitschko's beating him. The reason he doesn't fight is more to do with money than anything. Haye is all about the risk-reward. Mayweather does the exact same thing.

    Haye was a very good cruiserweight and at heavyweight he manoeuvred himself well to get a title. Haye is nothing like Floyd at this weight division. Haye does not fight because he knows he will get knocked out by a heavyweight.

    He fought the best Heavyweight in the world and din't get knocked out. No Heavyweight he has fought has knocked him out so I fail to see your logic here.

    Haye is no Holyfield he has carefully selected his opponents at heavyweights. He has done it for a reason that his chin is not as durable as it should be at heavyweight. His performance against Wlad was poor and negative. What makes Haye think he does not have to fight Adamek, Arreleo and others to earn a proper shot. He said Vitali must fight him because Vitali has no legacy fight. He thinks way too much of himself.
