" David "Haye is not considering any opponents right now, he needs rest"

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

I'm not defending Haye and I definitely don't think Wlad is ducking him, but Haye clearly pulled out of the fight becuase the TV company with rights to the fight was about to go bankrupt and he wouldn't have got paid. He had to use an injury as an excuse. It turned out to be a wise decision becuase Setanta did go bust before the date of the fight

I don't understand why the HAYTERS find this so hard to understand. It won't happen this time around with the backing of SKY anyway.

The Vitali fight was backed by SKY.

Yeah the Vitali fight I don't quite understand... One minute he was fighting Vitali, the next he was fighting Valuev!
I guess he just wanted the easier fight 1st

I'm not sure if the OP's intent was to mislead but that statement was a response to a question about Shannon Briggs.....

Booth was responding to a question about Brigs calling out Haye and saying That Haye shouldn't waste his time with the Klits.

To which Booth responds "Briggs must be too far gone to come out with a statement like that.........We are not considering anything or any opponents at the moment....None whatsoever....We want to let everything settle.....” bla bla bla
