    Carry on.
    I blasted pac for ducking a drug test. To my knowledge haye has not point blank been offered a drug test and refused. if he did do that you can bet your ass I'd be giving him as much shit.

    I don't defend haye because as far as I'm concerned there is nothing to defend (at this moment in time).

    But as I've always said you can't slam a fighter for fighting substandard opposition and then cheer on a guy who does exactly the same thing.

    My point is there is no good guy and bad guy here.

    Although that said marketing haye as the loud mouth bad guy and the klits as good guys is going to be good for business all round.
    Now you're just dwelling on the semantics when you're mentioning the tests. Pacquiao was 1 guy you've criticized for not fighting Mayweather and another is Amir Khan. Yet on the other hand you've defended Haye tooth and nail for pulling this stunt. Didn't you call Khan a fraud and coward for not fighting the best 140 pound fighters? But on the other hand you're the first guy to step into these kinds of threads to defend Haye for not fighting the Klits.

    How about a little bit more consistency? What's good for the goose is good for the gander.
    No I've not defended haye. I just haven't lambasted him.

    And it's not semantics at all. theres a whole world of difference between

    'i'll fight you if/when the money is right'

    and

    'i'll only fight you if I don't have to have a steroid test so I can carry on cheating'

    Haye's never turned down the klit fight because he wasn't allowed an nfair advantage in the ring.

    The only common ground here is one of the fighters in question wasn't allowed by his opponant to have an unfair advantage in the ring or round the negotiating table. And you're pissed about that!?

    I'm for an even playing field and a fair transparent sport. Obviously these are things that you find distastful. I don't think that's something to be proud of.

    KHAN ISSUE

    Yes I did. Like I said earlier theres no difference between fighting valuev, ruiz and barrett and fighting peter, arreola, briggs, tua, sosnowski, johnson, chagaev, povetkin, chambers, meehan or any other bum.

    Haye didn't get KO'ed avoid a rematch and instead fight some bum for a title and instead of taking legit opposition or giving a rematch to his conquorer he looked for the easiest fights possible against non punchers.

    Haye beat the legit WBA champ and then went to the negotiating table with the Klits. In my view thats a big difference. But you're going to ignore that.
