    If he loses to Wlad does he get to fight him again or Vitali

    Or is it only if he wins :think

    Can they have him against others or does it have to be against the Klits?

    Only if he wins I believe, the same with most rematch clauses.

    Win or lose I believe he has to rematch Vitali or Wlad and then the other one again.

    Even if he loses (unless it's a early KO) I think he'll get a rematch. It's probally still the biggest fight out there in terms of ticket sales.

    Like Lewis' rematch clause when he fought Rahman.

    I don't think they'll give him the rematch if he loses, they'll make a big song and dance about how he isn't in their league and try to kill his career in the HWs. They took that whole decapitation thing quite personally.

    Apparently the first offer for a Wlad fight had a 5 fight rematch clause, where Haye got 25% of the purse max.

    In the new one Haye gets a guarenteed amount from the 2nd fight along with a percentage, and 50% of a third that must take place in either the UK or the US

    I'm under the impression that if Haye wins, then the brothers choose who steps up next. Then the 3rd fight HAS to be the one that didnt take the second fight.

    So it could be Wlad, Wlad, Vit.

    Or: Wlad, Vitali, Wlad.

    Of those I reckon the latter.

    That is my understanding of it too Unstoppable, I would think however from a financial point of view. If the first fight is close (even though I think Haye is going to get destroyed), and Haye wins it, it would make sense to have the rematch right away to legitimise the win and then take the "big fight" against Vitali to ultimately prove his dominance. If Haye were to beat both one after another, it would much likely take the sting out of a third contest whether the fights were close or not and hence sell less tickets.

    I never knew Rahman was contracted to fight Dennis.
