Does Don King have options on David Haye?

Cory Spinks got robbed against Verno Philips. If I remember right he was DKs fighter.

 

It's kind of funny that this hasn't been mentioned in any articles on the fight, either yay or nay (that I've seen). As soon as I heard about the fight I assumed "no Klit fight for Haye, King has him". But apparently it hasn't occurred to a single journalist to ask. Wonder why that is...

(Hopefully someone has more info than I do, but I think it'd be pretty big news.)

 

That was concerning the influence of DK. I thought that was the main idea of your post/thread.

 

Hmm.

Donald slept for the first 3 rounds, and then miscounted how many he won, going into power save mode too early. I had it a draw. However, I do think that King had pulling something in the background.

Ruiz almost did nothing in 6 rounds of the fight (other than getting jabbed in the face HARD), so the best he could get was a draw again. Of course, he would have kept the title by that.

Beck and Barrett were given to Valuev to make him look good.

Chagaev literally RAN and ducked behind the ropes for 2:45 a round, eating dozens of grazing punches, to then rally for ten seconds landing punches on Valuevs CHEST and SHOULDER to create loud booming sounds and flying sweat, to make the judges who wouldn't have a direct sight to it think he connected big. That was a clever con job, and no way Chagaev "won" that fight. I would have scored it 8:4 Valuev for that hiding, running, and acting job. Valuev was too fair in that fight, and wasn't prepared well by his trainer to look good.

Bergeron was again a clumsy performance by Valuev, again more like a draw. Maybe Valuev should have lost that, I think I did not score there.

Holyfield got the rounds from me whenever he threw more than 3 punches a round. He still didn't win that one. You cannot dance away for 2:59 a round and then throw ONE punch that lands, and claim you won the round.

The Finland thing sure was a con job against Chagaev to get the title. Given the way he "won" the title, I am not too depressed about this. Bad thing is that Chagaev was willing to take Wlad on short notice, while Team Valuev was playing con games knowing they would get a fight with Haye. I think Valuev knows that he will get jobbed there if he doesn't knock Haye dead out of the ring, since at his age, he is no future option, and not well marketable.

And yes, King HAS options on Haye, he only claims he can fight WHERE he likes, not WHOM. Be ready to see Haye vs. Ruiz and a bunch of other King hasbeens, all while running his mouth to no end how ze Klitschkos are "running from him". You can bet the live savings on Haye retiring without fighting anyone whose last name starts with a "K".

 

I wasn't arguing against you, but adding to it. I hate Don King and what he has done to the sport and its participants. I think he knifed Cory.

 

Don't Goldenboy have rights on Haye?

I know they had a promotional deal like, but I think they're the main people behind his purse.

 

Haye went to france to beat Mormeck, Kings fighter and King had no options on him then, also as far as i am aware the deal was struck with Sauerland and not King :deal

 

He was the mandatory challenger then.

 

its possible but i doubt valuev will get robbed. he loses this fight 9/10. i just think we might get the right result rather than a valuev gift.

i have no problem with Haye defending the wba belt 3 times then fighting the klitchkos. as long as he fights then quick so they aren't too old

 

3 fights options for King and Sauerland.

Good bye unification and Haye will be the slave from this two.
