    This is a best case for CHisora. Wlad shoudl pay him about 500K for step aside money, and DC lives to fight and learn another day.

    He really needed some world level exposure before being thrown to the wolves anyway. Love to see him go at it with a TNT type or another big man like Tyson Fury.

    Ibragimov is better than Haye in all areas that are considered Haye's strengths. Sultan is a two fisted power puncher, better combination puncher, equally fast hands and most importantly a solid chin....plus a southpaw and all around more technically sound boxer.. Ibragimov would steal Haye's soul.

    Ibragimov is too underrated. He was a very good boxer and he took some solid shots from Wlad!

    I don't think its clear what Haye is as a HW. Its too soon to say, the guy just hasn't fought great opposition and hasn't fought enough period. IMO Haye does have a bit more upside than Ibragimov plus he may be stronger and definitly faster and could prove to be better in the future.

    WTF? :twisted:

    For the last ****ing time, why can't there be both the tuneup against Chisora and then the fight against Haye right afterward?

    I mean, Klitschko-Chisora wasn't an amazing fight on paper but in a weird way I was just starting to get attached to it :!: (wondering exactly how it would play out, how long it would last, whether Wlad would pull an Austin and use only his hook, etc.)

    But if this can't be, wouldn't it be better if we got a Haye-Wlad matchup, and then possibly a rematch or Haye-Vitali fight?

    Oh absolutely.

    I'm just greedy, and want as many fights as possible. :yep

    2 is better than 1...but yes, 1 is better than 0 (and this particular 1 - WK-Haye - is obviously better than the old 1, WK-Chisora). :good

    Wlad should have never signed for Chisora the second time when he had a chance to get Haye. It just made the situation messy. I don't care what they do personally. I wanna see Wlad fight both like he said he would, and see if he can pull it off.

    The fight against Chisora is still on.

    Wlad is right. Haye cannot tell him what he should do until 2th of july. It is not Haye´s problem.

    Haye should sign for july.

    it's almost a certainty that you're trolling here Jack, but in the off-chance that you're not, I'll explain it for you.


    The only reason Chisora was ever in the mix was that Haye was ducking Wlad.

    Wlad wanted Haye. Haye ducked. So Wlad lined up a stay-busy with Chisora.

    He got criticized by you for facing a bum.


    Wlad was willing to fight BOTH men. Again he got criticized by Haye and his fans. Again, Haye ducked.

    Now he's going to fight Haye.

    And you're STILL not happy.



    What other combination would you have liked to see ?

    The only one left in the mix would be to fight NEITHER.

    And I can guess what you would have said about that.




    And as far as being a man of his word (a little rich coming from a Haye-backer), do you know the terms of the Chisora cancellation ?

    Thought not.


    For all you know, Haye will be adequately compensated for the missed bout.


    If so, he gets to walk away with the compensation and doesn't have to suffer a beatdown.

    Not bad, when you consider that the only reason he was ever mentioned in the same sentence as Klitschko was on account of Haye's ducking.


    And Haye continues to have involuntary bowel spasms at the thought of facing Vitali.

    He was offered a guaranteed replacement of Vitali in the event that Wlad lost to Chisora or got injured.

    That was too painful for him to even contemplate.

    You need to look up the meaning of Duck there, Birmingham.

    Just because a fight doesn't happen, doesn't mean there was a duck.

    Especially when the cancellation is to make way for a more dangerous fight that everyone (you included) has been clamouring for) and more especially when the more dangerous opponent is demanding the first fight be dropped.


    Did Lewis duck Byrd ?

    Of course not.


    But he refused to fight him.




    You used to be a first rate troll, (and I mean that in a nice complementary way) but your slipping.

    You gotta get your creativity back and step up your game.
