    Once again.... There NEVER was going to be a fight with Vitali. It was and has been Wlad/Haye since the start.... :hey

    Haye does very well to promote himself....insulting the integrity of your opponent is a good ploy to get the terms you desire by angering the opposition
     
  3. So let me get this right...... you all think that Haye is ducking the fight with Wlad ??

    Haye has been after this fight for the best part of a year.. why on earth would he want to avoid it at the last minute

    No, he just might want more than is entitled to him in this match up

    OK I understand that but my point is Haye would be willing to take that fight

    Hes not ducking Wlad...but he is holding out for big time $$$$ now that he got everyones attention. Now that fans want this fight, he is using it as leverage to get more than what a challenger would get. He's a smart dude..Ill give you that

    It isn't about avoiding or ducking. It is about pricing himself out. Trying to cash in because he doesn't have confidence in victory. In other words... Haye is willing to fight Wlad, only if he gets more money than he is worth. Clearly, it isn't Wlad and the title that he is after... he is after the cash. All of the bull**** talking that he has done... why didn't he sign the offer that Wlad sent him? If he wants this fight so bad.... why isn't he agreeing?

    Maybe, I dont know. It never really was going to happen so who is to say :huh
     

  10. So why exactly does wanting more money mean he thinks he's gonna lose :huh

    And i can't really coment whose fault it is because i don't know the workings of the offer. but how do you not know Wlad has sent a ridiculous offer ?

    Did Haye and Vitali really scuffle in a restaurant then?Or is that more hype?
    And are you saying Haye was in on this all along for example the interview Vitali gave beside Haye after the Barrett fight and on German TV after the Rahman fight,Vitali punching Haye in the arm...this was all planned?
     

  13. So you know Wlad sent a ridicalous offer ?

    I respect your inside knowledge but I expect this may be slightly biased coming from someone from the Klitschko camp
     
  15. So Wlad has sent a very high offer to Haye.... yet we have Haye in the papers saying he's not too sure whats going on and he's not sure Wlad really wants the fight ??

    Don't get me wrong.. his may all be hype but... if this fight doesn't go ahead I am pretty sure it won't be because of Haye
