Looks like Wlad v Haye will go ahead in September

[Kirkland Laing]

Junior may have made a shit offer to Haye knowing he'll turn it down, 60/40 in favour of Junior or worse. Unless he's offering 50/50 he's just ducking Haye.

I agree, Haye deserves a better deal now. Wlad cant think he is getting one of those "if you beat me then you have to fight my brother deals."

Although Wlad will bring in more money then Haye, Wlad cant make as much money fighting anyone else.

If Haye beats Wlad the next biggest fight would be Haye vs Vitali so why would Haye run from that?

Because it would lock him into some weak deal. However, If Haye beats Wlad, and there is no "fight my brother clause," Haye will have enormous bargaining power, and will be able to negotiate a much better deal for himself in the subsequent Vitali fight.


Remeber when Holyfield gave up a substantial amount of money for the first Tyson fight, in order to avoid a rematch clause.

Then after he beat Tyson, Don King had to negotiate with Holyfield for a rematch, and holyfield had the much better bargaining posistion.

...... and then Holyfield blew all that money, too!

Meanwhile

After Albert Sonsowski KOs Vitali, I think he should look for a 60/40 split with Wlad. He'll have much better bargaining power. How much do you think he is getting paid for this fight first?

Haye may just have a slightly better chance of beating Wlad than Sonsowski beating Vitali. Mostly because we have seen Wlad get KOed on three occasions by bums. We are lucky these fights aren't swapped. Otherwise, I'd give Haye zero chance until Vitali gets around 42yrs! And Sonsowski [COLOR="rgb(160, 82, 45)"]is truly almost a bum[/COLOR], and completely qualifies as the next in line to knock the dust off of Wlads dome!!
