    Vlad when Sentanta went bust and he'd have had no tv money and Vitali when he was offered a **** contract, i think Haye has been well and truely justified in his actions if even a fraction of what is in the papers is true. A cut of $120 mill for either fight in Vegas or Wembley which will probably equate to him getting $20-30 mill is prob 10 times what he would have previously got.

    LOL...i think he juss ducked the klitchkos for now...I think he realized it would be smart to fight a few guys first and than take on the 2 best...still a ***** move for pulling out when he signed but i guess thats how he does his stuff....I like Haye and I think he will fight hard against both klitties but they gonna finish him in the end I think

    Did he hurt his back or did he do it for financial reasons?

    Both. You can't pull out of a fight like that without conclusive evidence of injury, though admittedly back injuries are hard to diagnose and pin-point.

    Regardless, his overwhelming source of income from the fight was Setanta, who of course went bankrupt. He would of gotten an absolute pittance for the fight.

    So, what you are saying is, "Haye Ducked, but had a good excuse"

    Pre-fight-hype. You should know that. It's all to sell more tickets and make more money, it's exactly what Floyd does. Everybody wants to make money, and nobody in their right mind would fight a power-punching 6'6½ unified heavyweight champion without getting paid.

    It's not ducking if you do what everybody else would of done.

    Regardless, he was injured.
