Looks like Haye Vitali is off and its Haye v Valuev

[Kirkland Laing]

Well, well, well....I can't say I am surprised. Sure people will say the Klitschko's drove too hard of a bargin, but the ball was in their court and David was at their mercy, after all the talk and all the hype, David decided to take his ball and go home. It's now 8 months since David Haye's introduction to being a full time heavyweight and he has had only the fight vs Monte Barrett...Wladimir has fought twice and Vitali has fought once in the ring and once in court since November 2008...my point is even the CHAMPIONS of the division have been more active than David Haye at heavyweight, which shouldn't happen...hell even Nicolay Valuev has fought more recently than David Haye! That is just fucking sad.

The good news is we'll more than likely get to see Vitali-Cris Arreola which will be a good solid fight, one which the fans will want to see and one where both sides shouldn't have much to argue about at the negotiating table. Hell at this point, I would even leave the Oleg Maskaev option open at this point in time...might as well get some rounds in.

David Haye has gone out of his way to be a prick just to get a shot at one of the Klitschko's only to back out both times he's had the chance to fight them. Seems to me David Haye may want a belt, but he doesn't want to actually have to fight Wlad or Vitali to get one. While I think this Valuev fight is faaaaar better for his career, I think the way he has gone about his business is an absolute joke. I think perhaps at the last minute he was talked out of fighting Vitali by his management who knew like everyone else that he didn't stand a chance. Sure Valuev is big, but I have my doubts about his ability to take a shot and he damn sure can't punch, BUT I still think the big oaf should be the betting favorite as #1 He's hard to beat on the cards and #2 We don't know how David will react to getting hit or just the sheer size of Valuev, that may cause David problems.


And now you'll get your chance, a no talent 7 foot heavyweight vs a chinny loudmouthed cruiserweight....no, it's not Julius Long vs Enzo Maccarinelli, but you might think that if the names were left out of this.

A Bisping/Hatton type KO is too good for David Haye...that is what he has accomplished with all his talk and all his hype, he has made me want to see him litterally tortured in the ring! I want to see a Oleg Maskaev-Hasim Rahman I KO...I want Haye to get sparked, fall through the ropes, and right into Jim Lampley's lap and to be honest I don't give a shit who does it, I'd even be happy if John Ruiz did it....that is how much I hate David Haye, I abhor David Haye!

You just can't deal with the fact that both your boys bottled fighting Haye.

Please do explain? Did Wlad fake a back injury?

At some point in time both of them ducked out of the fight. originally it was vitali, then it was Junior, now it's Vitali again.

Don't take my word for it, listen to the man himself.

It's not worth it if Lyle isn't playing.

You do get awfully worked up over the Klitschko brothers, don't you?

[El Kabong]

See I was ready to argue with you, but you bottled it, so I can't waste my time with it, I have to debate other posters....ones that don't bottle it

I supported Haye, even though I thought he`d get murdered in there, for bringing excitement to a division that was essentially a joke. I guess he was in on the joke, must have been, and decided to make it bigger. For that is what all this does for the division. Makes boxing people point and laugh, makes them mock.

It sucks really. Very disappointing for the division and a huge let down by Haye. Oh well, bring on the fat men and freaks, the dodgers, the shit-talkers, and lalala and HW life goes on; and no one is going to wanna see it, or really care...

[Kirkland Laing]

You were ready to argue with me but you know, you just didn't. Never mind, you made the correct choice. We both know how it would have ended.
