    Disagree entirely. I understand both sides' reluctance.

    Wlad is reluctant to break a contract because he'd most probably find himself sat in court for a prolonged length of time.

    Given that Haye doesn't havea deal with any German network, he's obviously free to speak to who he likes, and in any case, he's not exactly renowned for telling the truth about lots of things, is he?

    To me it's simple - he knows that at this moment in time he isn't beating Wlad..... OK fair enough, and I'm not expecting him to come out and say that - but firstly at least face credible opponents and secondly cut the crap. Or at least some of it.

    I'll wait for the announcement with interest, if it's not Harrison and turns out to be someone in the top 10, then it's not the worst outcome in the world - but a fight against a man that's never boxed in the top 20 just because he's British is a bit of a joke really.

    Even his most ardent fans surely see this, financially motivated or otherwise?

    There is no doubt Hayes next opponent will not be paid 50/50 but its ok for Haye to want it from the Klits.

    Fair enough but I think those numbers would skyrocket if Wlad was involved. He might not be a household name here but I still think his name would add a lot of interest, and Haye keeping 100% of the money is way out of line IMO. This video didn't help him one bit.

    Where are you getting the 400,000 number for Haye vs. Ruiz from? Please post a link if you can, thank you.

    Sigh...its getting to the point that if he ever fights one of the klitschkos i'm going to be cheering them on, not him.
