Is David Haye now out-pricing himself?

You would

 

Haye should take what ever deal he can get if he really thinks he will win.

 

Yes.

Haye should sign the deal if he wants to fight the best.

The purse than does not matter.

But Haye wants $$$$$$$$$$ nothing else.

Wlad can choose another opponent, he has a voluntary defence and can fight everybody in the Top 15. He wil get his money without problems.

 

Wrong
He wants recognition as the best in the world

 

I don't know what's really going on behind the scenes with this fight and Mr. Haye in particular, but even for a guy like me, who carries the Hayemaker torch, it's getting incredibly old, incredibly fast.

In two weeks it will have been 3 months since Haye's last fight. He's young and hungry so why, especially when talks stall, isn't he fighting someone else? I understand the layoff between the Enzo Mac fight and the Barrett fight but even looking back at that time Haye had an opponent, then he didn't, then he did again, then he didn't, and then finally he got Barrett. It's no different now.

I'm not going to point the finger solely at the Hayemaker but guys like him, you know, young, hungry, ambitious, and poised to clean up the division as he put it, should be fighting every 3-4 months minimum. I respect Haye wanting the biggest fights right out of the gate, there's nothing wrong with that, but since talking his way into a fight with a Klitschko isn't working, why not go out and knock all the fat bums in the heavyweight division out and make yourself a mandatory for one or both of the brothers?

It could be that both Klitschko's want nothing to do with Haye. It could be that either Haye's side or the Klitschko's can't settle on a purse split, location, whatever. The point is, if the Hayemaker is who he says he is and is going to do what he said he was going to do shorty after the Enzo fight, he should be fighting and fighting often. If Haye doesn't fight until June he will have only fought twice in nearly 15 months!

I remain and will remain a Haye supporter because the guy's damn entertaining both in and out of the ring. All of this rehtoric however is growing old...and fast! I know that boxing is a business for most fighters, including Mr. Haye but if he really wants a shot at Wladimir, he should take the fight under any reasonable terms that Wladimir throws at him. Once he becomes champion then he'll have every right to set the terms of a fight.

Given that fact that this same crap happened between the Enzo and Barrett fight makes it difficult for me to believe that the problems getting a fight made are anyone's but Haye's and his team. The Hayemaker needs to step on the gas here and get a fight made with someone, anyone. As long as it's not against another fringe contender I'll have nothing to complain about. I love Haye's trash talking but I'm ready for an active Hayemaker, not a part time fighter who makes promises but then sits on the sidelines talking and promising this and that.

Fight once every three months and the Hayemaker would be a mandatory in no time at all. Negotiations are breaking down at every turn and every fight for the Hayemaker so he just needs to get out there and force a Klitschko fight by doing it the old fashioned way and knocking other contenders out!:bbb

 

Why does he not accept the deal and sign for the fight?

 

because he is a business man and promoter as well as a fighter :roll:

 

Remember the Klitschko's were the one's messing about,
Wlad vs Haye,
no now it's Vitali vs Haye,
no sorry we changed our mind's it's back to Wlad vs Haye after all
and we'll fight in London, No wait maybe we'll bring it back to Germany...Catch my drift!

 

I think he will fight the best and it is not about $$$$$$$$$?

You cannot have both.

First you have to become Champion, than you earned the money.

A contender had to sign the deal or shut up.

 

I don't know the ins and outs of the deal so I will not comment

 

I agree, that's the way I see it too. If Haye's so confident in victory he shouldn't be so worried about how much of a cut he's getting. After all, Wladimir is the man with the titles on the line, Haye has only his mouth and some belts at a lower weight which wouldn't be on the line anyway.

 

Your views are too extreme

Just because a guy doesn't hold the belts,he should fight for peanuts?Is that what you're saying?
