"He's in it for the money"

[El Kabong]

I am reading Hayes book and he loves boxing, the history and as @Fenster pointed out fought for free as a successful amateur. I do think however that Haye does not see himself as a heavyweight which is why is he not as active in the division as he was at cruiser weight. If he was a confident heavyweight he would have taken on Price, Fury and Adamek with ease.

I think he is vulnerable to a big punch so does not want to risk fighting and getting caught with a lucky punch. So instead he raises his profile through other routes outside of boxing with occasional selected fights to get to even bigger fights. In that sense Haye is “only in it for the money”.

Then why doesn't he make himself the best cruiserweight ever? Why even think he had a chance vs Wladimir if he's "not sure of himself at heavyweight"?


Heavyweights DO make better money

But then again all you posted adds up to Haye being a chickenshit so I guess I shouldn't argue. He's 6'3 230....solid heavyweight size even for today, but he's "not sure of himself" Fucking ridiculous
