Haye gets screwed in the contract but still takes the fight.VIDEO

[Taeth]

Sorry, but isn't this what contenders are suppose to do to fight the champion? It should always be on the champion's terms IMO where and how they fight. Haye is lucky he is getting the perfect oppertunity instead of actually having to fight his way through the heavyweight division where the chances of him losing are high.

Is David Haye doing Wladimir some kind of favor by fighting him NO Wladimir is THE MAN of the division Haye should be happy with the crumbs he got tossed, Wladimir easily could have chosen to fight Arreola (a more meaningful fight as Cris is a heavyweight with experience) who would have gotten out of fighting McCline in a heartbeat if he could sign on the dotted line.

David Haye and his fans are crazy....they will hype up Haye even more so than they have been doing lately and once Wladimir KO's him with relative ease they will say "Haye wasn't ready", "Haye is only a cruiserweight", "Wladimir cheated" etc etc etc.

It really is ridiculous the guy has had 2 heavyweight fights vs total bums and he thinks he's enough of a crowd pleaser that HE can pick and choose what type of cut he gets in a title fight?!?!?! Haye is a fucking moron on a number of levels and his fans are right there with him....sure he talks a big game but he had better prepare for doing something other than swinging for the fences because that is what Wlad is going to prepare for the first couple of rounds and by round 4 Haye will be spent and then it will come down to Haye's heart and the mercy of Wladimir

Getting a heavyweight title shot, without ever beating a legitimate heavyweight contender, and getting paid millions of dollars: Yea he really got screwed.

I agree to a point with what has all been said but the difference between Haye and the brothers grim is that Haye has star quality where as the Klit boys are not exactly superstar material.


If Haye wins the division and boxing as a whole gets a boost.

If WK wins then its the sames as normal.(nobody giving a fuck about the HWD)

Agreed. And that is why I will be rooting for Haye. However, David Haye's fan-boys are incredibly annoying, and I dont look forward to them gloating.

Haye need this fight 10x more than Wlad.

[porkypara]

Haye need this fight 10x more than Wlad.

So does boxing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AdamGB]

Haye need this fight 10x more than Wlad.

Say what you want about who's earned it etc but the fact is that people outside of hardcore boxing fans actually want to see this fight... whereas they couldn't give a fuck if Wlad thought somebody else.

Don't act like Haye has brought nothing to the table in terms of PPV sales/marketability etc.

Yeah poor David Haye.......

The guy needs to just shut his mouth already and FIGHT........

Haye comes off like a whining cry baby.......

I hope Wlad really softens him up for 5-6 rounds with hard jabs and the occasional straight right and left hook. Than in round 7-8 just starts dropping huge BOMBS and KO's his ass. I would love to see Haye take a real good beating in this fight...

Haye doesn't seem upset about the contract and he's certainly not crying about it.

Wlad KO's him in 5
Vitali in 3

and to the "i'll give Wlad a rematch although he wont want to look at a picture of me let alone step in the ring with me"

i think Wlad knocks him out so brutally that the only way he'll get his right glove back is after Haye shits it out

[WelshDevilRob]

David Haye has confirmed he has a three-fight deal with the Klitschkos after finally signing a contract to take on Wladimir Klitschko on June 20, live on Setanta Sports.

The Londoner has had to make a major sacrifice by agreeing to take the unusual step of signing away his next three contests, if he does cause a shock by winning the heavyweight title fight.
Haye has revealed that it was the only way he could secure a title shot with Wladimir, with WBC champion Vitali waiting in the wings further down the line.
"I've got to fight three Klitschkos," he exclusively told Setanta. "Maybe they've got an uncle who does a bit of boxing and their Dad did a bit back in the day!
"So three Klitschkos in whatever order they choose.

"You should've seen what they tried to make me agree to before. That was a massive compromise as it was a joke what they were trying to make me agree.
"If you think that's ridiculous, you would crack up at what they wanted me to sign before. It clearly showed me the mentality of the Klitschkos and how much wusses they are. They're not real champions - they try to manufacture things and are not warriors.
"They don't believe they are the best out there. If they thought they'd beat me then why make me sign these stupid contracts? That was a deal breaker. If I didn't sign it, the fight wouldn't be happening.
"You've got to bend sometimes and I did, right at the end of the day.

"Once I knock Wladimir out, he won't want to go near me in a million years and Vitali, once I knock him out, and it's going to take a lot to knock him out, that's it, he's finished.
"So I don't think I'll have a third fight unless they wheel out one of the uncles.

"It's a joke. It was like a hidden camera show. I've never heard of it in boxing history but if it's the only way these chumps will get in a ring with me, it's what I've got to do."

Haye explained that Alexander Povetkin will have to wait some time before having any chance to meet him in the ring.
"Any rematch with Wladimir would possibly be six months later," he explained.
"Then after that, I'd fight Vitali after another six months. After that, in the middle of next year, I'll finish this current contract I'm under so, if Povetkin is still in a good position then, he'd be at the top of the list of fighters I'll be looking to fight."

100% agree. This is really a meaningless fight for Wlad. It will do nothing for his career. It means something now cuz of the Haye groupies. But in 2 years it'll be "Haye was smaller" "Wlad beat up a Cruiswerweight" He will get no credit for the win

I feel sorry for the other HW contenders who have been hanging around the division, waiting patiently for their turn at the title and then this CW comes straight up and gets his shot.
I would think, because of Haye's disrespect and public desire, that the Klitschko Team felt obligated to get him a title shot.

He should be happy with whatever he gets because in fact, he is getting the golden ticket over the other HW's. In reality, he should get nothing for the time being and have to fight Maskaev, Thompson and another HW to even get the chance to fight Wlad or Vitali.

All has been confirmed though and on the night, Haye will realise that he is just another 'punching bag' for Wlad and will disappear from the spotlight.
