Do you honestly believe that Lyle, or is it just part of your Haye bashing?
No way in hell was Haye scared, why oh why would he go to such lengths to get the fight just to back out at the last minute? If he wasn't injured (and none of know for a fact that he wasn't) then the reason he backed out has to be money.
Why would any fighter intentionally stall his career and earn zero $$$'s in the process? it doesn't make sense.
You could possibly argue that if anyone was scared it was the Klitschko's!
I know you say the clauses they insisted on were standard for championship fight but they definitely were not. If Haye won he'd have to give Wlad a rematch (fair enough), but if he won that he'd then have to fight Vitali. Oh and guess what, the Klits get all the money from all three fights bar UK TV.. Therefore it was smart business on Hayes part to not go through with those demands....
