So skel, you would NOT want to see Valuev get KO'd?!?!
As for the terms and rematch clauses, who's taking the risk here? David Haye is going to be making good money even if he did get shafted on the contract, but Wladimir is risking his titles and standing in the division to fight someone who has little experience at heavyweight and who has already been KO'd by an ancient cruiserweight....David Haye could be the best heavyweight out there but his record does leave doubts as to the extent of his skill and were Wladimir to lose to him it would stir up numerous doubts about his standing in the division.
This isn't the first time rematch clauses have been used, maybe the first that involved brothers but this is the first time two brothers have run the division. Are you telling me if Haye was to beat Wladimir that a fight with Vitali would not make sense and given Vitali's age and occasional health problems that an immediate fight between Haye and Vitali would be a bad thing
This fight may be big right now but had Haye fought oh, I don't know a REAL contender and scored an impressive KO, then I certainly would be more worried about Wlad's chances, but right now it's as I said: If Haye wins then Wlad is a bum and if Wlad loses then Wlad is a bum and Haye is the greatest ever......it's lose-lose for Wladimir no matter how the fight ends, until he gets paid of course
