Pulling out of a fight now, a week before it's scheduled to happen, and for the second time in 6 months, could well be the straw that breaks the camel's back for the fans that buy tickets to the fights and sky who invest money in showing them. I honestly can't see any upside to faking this injury unless a deal is in place to fight Vitali. It's probably a bit reckless to pick up a sparring injury like this a week out when most people would be tapering their training down but I don't doubt it's legitimacy cos there really isn't any benefit to pulling out for Haye.
