Haye V Klitschko OFF

[Fenster]

...it makes as much sense as anything else about David Haye's career. I wasn't aware that ONLY Setanta was paying him, so he wasn't going to get ANY of the gate Oh well, I guess he didn't have as much leverage in negotiations as he wanted, and I thought that surely a KO win over Monte Barrett would be big enough to where David could name his price and Wlad would accept the deal.

You can't talk that much shit and pull out like Haye did...very poor form

The fact Haye was getting fuck all compared to the Klits just shows how badly he wanted the fight.

You're living in cloud cuckoo land if you think ANY fighter in the world, at this level, would step in the ring without getting paid.

When you talked as much smack as Haye about how it was going to be easy picking KO'ing Wlad and this was going to be the easiest fight of your career and being totally disrespectful for Wlad (the recognized number 1 heavyweight) and what he has done he CANT pull out of the fight without looking like a total BONEHEAD!!!

If you want to talk about money lets see: Lets say Haye would have fought Wlad for free this fight and KO'd Klit (a given in Haye's mind). He would have made more money in his next two fights than he will now fighting five fights. Without Wlad and his recognized number one ranking Haye is nobody. Now Haye has to take a HUGE risk and fight some contenders like Arreola for small money to work his way up to Klit (and risk a loss). In my mind Haye made a huge financial mistake if that is the reason he pulled out.

Talking smack gets attention and SELLS fights. Why do you think a 60,000 seat stadium was chosen for this fight? They sold all the tickets on the bridle.

You can't be seriously suggesting Haye should have fought for free? Unreal. If thats the case, why does any challenger get paid? They should accept any fight on the chance they will reap the rewards after winning.

What if Haye loses to Wlad? He'll be in a worse situation than he is now.
