He wouldnt get that against Haye thats for sure. Hes broke.
No one wants to back him because although his last fight pulled a crowd he hasnt proved he can beat anyone even half decent and judging by his turning down Fedesov and picking an untested novice whos only been fighting german journeymen neither does he have confidence in his ability.
Like I said, he will take that ranking and sit on it biding his time against journeymen the same as De Mori did and wait for a payday as a name opponent.
Typically nowadays, there's a lot of conjecture here. I think we need to see who the opponent ends up being and then we'll have a better idea of what's gonna happen. I do think Haye thought it would be easier to get the fights he wants, not realising fighters , promoters , even TV stations are gonna say "fuck you, why should we help." and indeed why should they do him any favours?
The one thing I would say, is I think it's a bit shitty starting to sell tickets and chatting shit without being anywhere near naming an opponent.
I think he's gonna piss on his chips if he ain't careful. People will only get mugged off for a certain amount of time, then they'll wake up and smell the coffee.
just to explain my post, I meant that perhaps Fedesov didn't fight Hughie because Hughie isn't ranked and Fedesov wouldn't move on up
however Haye is ranked and a name so, as well as more chance of a step up the ladder, he would get the Haye exposure too
and he would more than likely earn more fighting Haye than Hughie also
Other than Haye is scared of Fedesov like you suggest, perhaps there was a different reason to why Haye chose not to have Fedesov as a backup in case his 21st may fight falls through?
Officially the only saddo who has had a girlfriend
Haye can sell tickets without an opponent because his punters aren't specifically boxing fans they're Haye fans. As he proved last time, it doesn't matter who he fights, he draws a massive gate and TV audience. The least of his problems is not being wanted, he equals big dough for everyone involved.

But still no one wants to promote him?
Thats because they are not so sure he has what it takes any more. They want to see someone give it to him and how he responds.
Hearn wouldnt put big money on a show where an actual contender would be facing Haye because he still has value as a name opponent. If he looks shit or gets beat that fucks that up. The promoters are waiting and fighting nobodies will not help him. Hes out in the cold at the minute. Fury has said after the Klitschko rematch he wants the winner of Martin v Joshua. If that happens and he wins which I think he does then he wants the winner of Wilder v Povetkin. If these fights happen Haye has a lot of water treading to do piling his own money in to shows to keep himself relevant.
That's true, but like I said before, that won't last forever. His fans, Whether Boxing fans or not, they will cotton on to Bullshit match ups eventually and his star will wane. We're not at that place yet, but it is a danger and he needs to be careful.
Personally, I don't think like Ross, that he's scared of anyone, but naturally he will look for the least risk/ most reward fights. But the problem being getting the guys that he wants, they're not going to say "Yeah, why not!"
Nobody wants to promote him? You couldn't make it up.

He is the promoter you thick cunt - Hayemaker Promotions. He's in charge.
3-Time SADDO PREDICTION COMP CHAMPION.
Exactly you thick cunt! He did go out to promoters but no one wanted to take it on. Hes having to plow his own money to do it. Thats why hes had to put his house in the market, auction off his training equipment, be held in jail for fraud when a cheque bounced and take the top 2 undercard fights off last time and why he cant afford a decent opponent!
He got a TV channel by the skin of his teeth in the last week!
Sky who have been rimming him for years werent even interested they still arent!
Hes desperate to be given a financial lifeline and be a high profile opponent.
If you're a professional boxer and you sign a contract for a promoter you get paid a fee for particular fight. You don't even own the rigghts to the TV footage of the fight, the promoter does. You may have noticed guys like Warren and Hearn live on great big country estates and make millions of pounds. Fighters, not so much. It's every fighter's dream to be able to promote their own shows and keep all of the money, even more so to be able to sell out the biggest arena in the country without even naming an opponent or an undercard.
He can't get on Sky because Matchroom have an exclusive deal to produce all their boxing events and he doesn't want to go to Box nation because the bigger TV audience on terrestrial TV gives him better earning potential in the long run when he eventually makes world title fight agreements.
This cunt really is more annoying than the pactards were. Tysontard? Furytard? I think Tysontard has a nice ring to it.
What TV rights?
Dave got it at a bargain basement price before Haye had to resort to trying to sell advertising onyoutube! If he had any big nterest for advertising on youtube he would have gone downthat route but he didnt. He did try for weeks to publicise it and got no offers.
If the promoter pays the fighter, thefigter can still negotiate a cut of any revenue. Haye doesnt have that draw anymore or yet and hewont until he proves himself again and wins back some confidence in his brand. Does he get that far before any banana skins? As untested as this proposed German novice is he could well be that. Even if he wins but looks poor he loses appeal.
Couldn't have put it better myself, have tried in the past but Ross is as you say a terminally thick cunt.
Haye will, as we both know, make a few quid over the next few years, most importantly for boxing the lions share wont go to fat mick, Hearn or Warren, whats not to like?
