Haye is lucky to be getting a title shot....Obviously Wlad is NOT afraid to fight Haye because Wlad could easily say he only wants to fight his mandatories.....Wlad is going out of his way to fight Haye.....Haye is ruining the opportunity by asking for too much and drawing up a deal to fight in the UK and than changing his mind......Plus Wlad wanted to fight sooner and is waiting to fight Haye........Haye is not well known in the US, hasnt beat any world reknown fighters, isnt a superstar in the UK....what is he bringing to the table? I would tend to agree that Arreola would be a more appealing fight to Americans so Haye better just get the deal done........
Arreola is an exciting fighter, he goes for the KO, and he's an undefeated heavyweight...David Haye isn't even an undefeated cruiserweight and his fan base is coming from a smaller place than Arreola who can not only appeal to Americans but the hispanic community as well.
There isn't going to be any difference in the license fee HBO pay for the fight. Arreola, last seen getting floored and almost losing early at domestic level, is a tub of lard with a left hook, but he'd still make 25-30% of the purse for the fight. Haye will fight for UK TV money only, something that isn't even on the table for Vlad vs. Arreola. So if Vlad fights Haye it's like he makes 100% of the Arreola money versus 75-80% of the same amount if he actually fights Arreola. The Klitschkos are clearly bottling Haye.
Kirkland you are dillusional why would more people be clammoring for an untested china chinned cruiserweight to get a title shot when we have a well proven solid UNDEFEATED heavyweight waiting for his chance
Well I have a couple reasons #1 Haye knows he has no damn chance and so he's trying to squeeze out as much money as he can #2 The British are known for having high expectations of their limited fighters: Ricky Hatton, Frank Bruno, Henry Cooper, Audley Harrison, etc etc etc....the list does run on
If Haye truly wanted the fight he wouldn't have cared about the particulars because if he had confidence in winning then he could write his own ticket but obviously he isn't as confident as you are
Nobody anywhere is clamouring to watch Vlad fight anybody. Given the choice between a domestic level tub of lard and an ex cruiserweight champion Haye edges it, but the Klitschkos are obviously terrified of him.
