Haye accuses Klit bros of fighting old run down Americans and rejecting his offer

[Fenster]

What's all this "piggyback" bullshit? Come on now get real.

1. Pac is not PPV in Britain (apart from being part of Hatton's PPV).

2. Haye sold near 1 million PPVs against Valuev and 600,000 against Ruiz. Who was he piggybacking on in these?

3. PLEASE someone show me where it says Pac-Margarito is on the Haye PPV.

Pac - ODLH was part of Khans comeback PPV, so Hatton isn't the only PPV he has been on. This was supposed to be a huge double header for Sky with Haye fighting over here and then off to Vegas for Pac-Floyd, but as that didn't happen I am just assuming that they have kept Pac as part of the deal. Haye had been saying he was fighting on the 13th November since the date was put forward as a possibility for Pac-Mayweather.

I think that Haye-Audley will match if not better Haye-Valuev whether Pac was on it or not just due to it being 2 Brits fighting for a HW belt. Haye is getting more and more popular over here and is becoming a household name and Audley is known as something of a laughing stock by everyone in the country. People want to see KO's in HW boxing and they want to be entertained watching it, that is what Haye-Audley will bring and that is why people will pay for it.

The amount of people who are what i'd call fringe boxing fans watched Wlad-Peter and were turning it off bored by the 6th round is frightening for HW boxing and is not good for the sport. We need these people to be watching boxing and getting excited by it because they are watching it to be entertained not because they love the sport come rain or shine (like the majority of posters here do) and they are the people who will make up the PPV numbers at the end of the day!

Same thing I'm talking about. They were on Khan's PPV, which would have been PPV regardless, and had they not fought on that date, Sky would have shown it FREE or not at all (that was Khan's comeback fight with Fagin and clearly needed bolstering) .

These guys wrongly believe that a 4am American fight, that doesn't invlove a British superstar, will somehow distort the numbers for Haye's upcoming PPV. Even though he's a PROVEN huge PPV seller, and standalone 4am American PPVs don't happen unless a British star is involved.

Clutching at straws. Fact.

No no, I was under the impression that Pac/Margarito was included on the same card, I obviously was mistaken on that point as I can't find the article now, although was rjjtszyu was on the money that there was discussion that Pac/$May would have been included on the card (the reason Haye picked the date originally) and the Pac may be given the piggy back option even after his negotiations with Mayweather fell through. This is clearly not the case now though and I stand corrected.

Haye will definitely sell a lot of PPV and has become a pretty big draw. Although the article I posted Haye states clearly that he originally offered a 50/50 split including TV options. So how is it stealing if it's offered?

Come on man, I said that tongue-in-cheek. This was a thread started so people could bash Haye. I was merely playing with Klitchkos manager's quote that Haye earns more from TV than the Klits - hence the KLits are being greedy (I already knew all about the Klits RTL deal and what not).

As for the piggybacking PPV - I understand your mistake, but even though I quickly corrected it, there has still been 3-4 posts congratulating you on the mistake. Is peoples hatred for Haye so great that they can't even admit the unequivocal fact that he's a BIG PPV seller? For fucks sake

And as for Haye's date being picked to coincide with Pac-Floyd - a) Pac-Floyd was never even signed, right? and b) Haye-Harrison was announced long after Pac-Floyd was scrapped. If ANY non-Brit fight could be PPV here it's that one. So adding it to the Haye card makes sense. But it's not like Haye-Harrison was going to struggle.
