    Before the Haye fight, people said that Haye wanted the shot at Wladimir because Vitali was an almost unwinnable matchup for Haye.. So of course after Haye has been beaten by Wlad, people are like "Well, if he had fought Vitali.." .. I also believe that Vitali wanted the Haye fight a couple of years back.

    I am not saying that this isn't an exciting fight, it's a good clash of styles and it is most likely going to be better to watch than Wlad-Thompson or Vitali-Charr.
    The Klitschko brothers' problem is that almost none of the contenders are willing to fight them, and even if they sign the deal people are expecting the brothers to dominate them (which almost always happens)..

    Haye and Chisora both deserve credit for making this fight happen, especially Chisora who now has a streak of top opponents. It is these kind of fights (Adamek-champers, Haye-Chisora and Huck-Povetkin) that can make the HW interessting again.

    Haye-Chisora is probably going to be a good fight, i'm sorry that i won't be home to watch it :-(

    Haye vs Valuev- terrible fight, but can't blame him for going after the weakest belt holder to get himself a belt, and some more money/promotion power

    Haye vs Ruiz- Decent fight i guess, against a mandatory, took care of him like a champ should

    Haye-Harrison- :verysad

    Haye-Klitschko- The fight everyone wanted, pretty decent fight imo, not as boring as many is making it out to be

    Haye-Chisora- One of the best fights to made in the HW division.

    Eh I see your point but you nuthuggers appear to be blind on the Klitschko's failings. Do you have an explanation why neither Klit lets his hands go despite facing 95% bums? Ancient Thompson was easier to hit than a sandback and yet Wlad threw 98% jabs only to discover that Thompson goes down by the first right hand. Why not engage in round 1 and knock him out early? Thompson was horrible and had no legitimation whatsoever to last longer than two rounds. Do you genuinely disagree? Is it so hard to comprehend that a good amount of people find that reluctant style mind-bogglingly boring?
    I remember some ESB member saying that the Klits are businessmen first, boxers second and fighters third. Never heard a wiser statement with respect to the Klitschkos.

    Haye made over £1m more for fighting Valuev instead of Vitali, plus the K2 contract had all sorts of clauses including control over his next 3 fights.

    Winning the WBA belt made the Klitschko fight a 50/50 spilt & both guys got career high paydays

    I respect anyone who can earn millions for fighting Enzo, Audley & Chisora :D

    They were undeniably the most significant & anticipated HW events of the year
