LONDON (AP)—David Haye has challenged Wladimir Klitschko to agree to terms on a heavyweight title fight.
Adam Booth, Haye’s trainer and manager, says a 50-50 split of earnings has been offered to the younger of the Klitschko brothers and the “path is clear” after resolving “all the old problems and disagreements.”

Haye says “we have removed every possible excuse and have shown we are serious about making this fight become a reality.”
Haye, who retained his WBA belt by beating fellow British boxer Audley Harrison last month, withdrew from a 2009 fight with Klitschko because of a back injury.
Haye said Tuesday the fight “needs to happen for the good of the sport.”
Wladimir holds the IBF and WBO belts. Vitali Klitschko is the WBC champion.


ummm isn't that the same damn offer Wlad gave him and yet he (Haye) turned down?!?


i'm really hoping this fight gets made and that Wlad stops him brutally after dominating him for about 3 or 4 rounds

I think you could argue that Haye was just maximizing his earnings by turning down that fight. As much as it may piss us fans off, he made a shit-ton of money with almost no risk by fighting Harrison. Maybe he's had a change of heart about the Klitschko fight now that his future is secure?

by the sounds of it there was a little more to it than a 50 50 split

haye got all the abuse for that fight falling through first time, which probably isnt really fair, by the sounds of things the Klits get most things their way in all the other fight negotiations
