    we are talking about Haye here; he is a shrewd businessman.

    £3.2 million purse with a percentage up front (believed to be just over £500,000).

    Haye has went through his entire career shunning the big promoters; only reason he got into bed with the Sauerland's was to get his shot at the WBA heavyweight title.

    So no options?

    Cant see how the numbers add up, German TV pulled out, no US coverage.

    Epix took it I believe... So at least some Americans can see it.

    Povetkin Rahman at the least should go out on ARD. Aren't Epix broadcasting in the US? Tris Dixon said that Boxnation are negotiating with 60+ overseas parties/broadcasters.

    Hopefully it'll lead to Haye vs Vitali

    Vitali is meant to be calling it quits after his next fight.

    David Haye was supposed to be retired already. If there is one thing in boxing that is a safe bet, it is when a boxer tells you he is going to retire, he probably wont.

    The K's swore blind they wouldn't give either one of them a shot at the titles - but then again just as sure as a boxer's retirement date if there's enough money on the table....
