It's a virtual gaurantee Haye-Harrison will sell good PPV. The 20,000 tickets sold-out in one day.
By the way - Haye meant "old rundown Americans" compared to fighting him.

...how haye can talk and fight audley freakin harrison with a straight face is amazing. That people are paying money to watch this garbage even more so....as long as people support crap like this fight they will continue to give us crap fights. Why not. Why fight either of the klitch's which he knows he can't beat when he can get paid to fight bums who can't even beat cab drivers (rogan). Thank god for the nfl.....this bs is like the jets talking shit about winning the super bowl but only want to play the bills !!! Can't fault mma and its fans for liking thier sport. Even the fights they show free on spike are more competitive and interesting than 90 % of the junk we get here. Audley harrison....give me a freakin break. And people run around crying about who floyd fights ??!!! Amazing.
Hidden Content Click clack ! Give up the purse.........or yetti will find you.
Haye makes a bigger fool of himself by the day....Get over it man either fight one of the K@ brothers or shut up already!!!!.....For goodness sake Ruiz, Audley?....The we will get on the Klits for fighting Shannon....I do not think Shannon should of had a title shot let alone been in the ring with a top HW due to his activity over the last few years but WTF has Haye done?...Beat Valuev?....Valuev ranks right along side Carnera when it comes to huge oafs that made it on nothing more then Carnival attraction size....
This has gone beyond negotiations and it has gone beyond reality and has become nothing but nonsense.....Haye thinks he is the HW version of Floyd when in truth outside the UK NO ONE CARES ABOUT HAYE....and it is starting to seem that even his own countrymen are starting to lose interest in him....I mean shit he backed out on both brothers....an agreement was made for 50/50 and he still finds a way to not sign.....Haye has not impressed ANYONE BUT AN IDIOT....To date with a single win....His greatest moment at looking like there is something worth watching was the Enzo fight.....Enzo was knocked out twice this week alone.,,,,First time an acorn falling from a tree put him out then on his way from the ER a kid took him out with a spit ball so the KO really was nothing to fathom on....
Haye confuses himself with PBF except he is not half the fighter Floyd is...has a tenth of the drawing power worldwide and hold what is currently the least desired of the ABC titles....Keep taking David maybe one day you will believe what you are saying
No one outside the UK cares about Haye? Well the Klitschko's do. Wlad was just on TV begging Haye not to get himself killed against Audley.
And the Klitschko's number one goal is to win the WBA title so they have the full set.

I honestly believe that with all of this that's going on now it is signalling the end to what has been a far too lenghtly wait for Haye to fight a Klit.
As many have stated in other threads, Chisora fighting against Wlad will bring in a lot of hype and attention, and the same with Haye finally finishing Audley. The Wlad Chisora fight especially will mean more public attention leading to shifting a lot more PPVs over here in the UK than if he was just fighting Americans as usual, as Wlad especially is surprisingly unknown amongst the general sports fans that would sometimes buy the odd PPV.
I really hope I'm right and we'll see them fight in the first half of next year. If not then from a business and general logic point of view it will be a huge opportunity missed for both parties.
If not then there will be a huge (further) lack of interest in the heavyweight division, and probably for a long time ahead.

The dude is defo not the greatest champion in the division and he wants the butter and the bread at the same time just because he knows that his demands are not fair and then is just running with the wind avoiding the real challenges. In exchange, he fights one of the great HW washed up, not even a worthy contender and he keeps his mouth running, unbelievable.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
I think that the US guys might have a point about Haye 'piggybacking' a PPV if they had Mayweather on the bill. Although they might have similar levels of stardom in the States, over here it's not even comparable, the fact Hatton-PBF drew more than a million more buys than Hatton-Pac says it all. Plus Sky love Mayweather, in truth because in this country, there's two ways to get mass exposure. Be a real salt of the earth man of the people construct where being British is a pre-requisite (Frank Bruno, Ricky Hatton, Freddie Flintoff) or be a good old fashioned bastard, where being foreign is a bonus (Cristiano Ronaldo, Kevin Pieterson, Haye, Mayweather). Wayne Rooney is currently straddling both of those
Anyway, Haye-Harrison doesn't need it, this fight is huge over here, people at my work with no interest in boxing are asking how far away the fight is. Only about 10% even know who Manny Pacquiao is. Fuck's sake, the Metro (trashy free paper you get on London underground) had two pages devoted to boxing today. One & half to Haye/Harrison related news, the other half split between Rendall Munroe & James DeGale.
As it is, on the 50/50 thing, I do agree people have a point that if Haye is fighting Wladimir, it should go right down the middle. Wlad is THE champ & deserves to get at least his fair share. If on the other hand he fights Vitali, then the rules change. Vitali has no greater leverage over Haye like being the legit champ or having more belts. He has one belt just like Haye. It then comes down to financial considerations. If Haye can draw more than Vitali, he deserves a greater share. If he's bringing in more cash, I see no reason why he shouldn't get more. What leverage does Vitali have that he doesnt? At the end of the day this is a business, and if the shoe was on the other foot, I don't see Vitali compromising on his cashflow![]()
Did you read what Bernd Boente (Klit manager) said - "Haye earns FAR more money from the British PPV than the Klitschkos could ever possibly imagine from the German TV station RTL"
They want Haye's money!!!! That's why the fight ain't happening. They are saying Haye is greedy for wanting what's his.![]()
THE TRUTH IS OUT!!! Fact.

For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
