Haye challenges Wladimir Klitschko to agree fight - Boxing - Yahoo! Sports

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

Y r people taking Haye seriously. He also probably want the fight in his backyard with his parents as judges.
Haye vs Adameck is the fight to be made!!!

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

No all he did was travel to Mormecks home town to take his number 1 spot and then travelled away to fight for the WBA Strap. I agree he likes to stay at home.

Im not 100 % sure but i think the fight with Harrison was the last Haye had whilst still attached to Sauerland promotions following the Valuev fight. He stands to earn even more now against Wlad just for that reason alone. I think both parties are equally to blame for this not happening yet but i think now with Haye claiming hes gonna retire next year there is no sense in him pursuing a fight with anyone other than Wlad/Vitali if he wants a lasting legacy at HW

[boxingbantz]

Getting bored with all of this bullshit, trying to make out it is the Klits who don't want to fight him.

He is the one who has TWICE pulled out a fight - not them.

Wlad will paint his face and I, for one, can't fucking wait.

He really is deluded if he thinks they are scared of him after what they saw against Harrison.

As for Adam Booth, he is a c*nt of the highest order.

[armin]

Unless wlad was to come out and actually say he's scarred to fight haye or is not signing the contract I'm not buying it. I mean he's a career heavyweight, has taken all comers and cleaned out the division. haye has had what like 5 fights at heavyweight with really not one credible opponent imo, that is to say all well past their prime or just no good to begin with....and well to say vitali is scarred or anything of the sort would be just laughable.

What's that got to with anything? He's travelled to France and Germany to win world titles. I think he's proved he's willing to travel.

To be honest if it's going to be 50/50, there will probably be more seats available to be sold in Germany, then the fight can still be PPV in UK in 3D at a 3D price. Unless They think they can sell out MEN or Wembley.

Boxing - Haye agrees to 50-50 split


heres another link about the 50-50 offer.

I think haye has proven he is not scared to travel anywhere. he mugged klitschko off before when he pulled out then signed to fight valuev but it put him in a better positon to demand better terms. Without a belt he didn't have a leg to stand on. The klitschkos want all the belts so they have to give in to Haye if they are ever going to get it. You know Haye will never vacate and would always fight his mandatories no matter how crap the fight is in order to keep the belt and spite the klitschkos.

If he had fought Klit before with no belt and lost and gave in to all their demands where would he have been? He can go in to the fight with a lot going for him.

! things for sure there is no excuse now for this fight not being signed sealed and delivered.

Haye isn't fighting either of them. Just trying to sway the opinion of him. I could care less if he fought them. He'd just get his ass beat anyway. Wouldn't surprise me if he started calling out floyd like everyone else....i see that happening first.
