    Because they said they didn't want a UK Arena, and it would sell out in the UK easy, any stadium, any time.

    Ukraine is being looked at.

    How do ticket prices in Germany compare to in England?

    We hear about selling out a 60,000 stadium but if the majority of tickets are 20 euro each then that makes a huge difference.

    If Haye doesn't show up in Germany, then Wlad could call someone like Ustinov in for a last minute title shot and take all the money from ticket sales. i think this is on his mind, he can't really do that in England.

    Haye has an advantage as well incase Wlad pulls an injury, Vitali steps in and everything is sweet again.

    It doesn't matter the fight not taken place in the UK. As the fight will not be going to the scorecards, there will be no chance of a dodgy bent decision going on.

    Plus Haye gets extra kudos for knocking Wlad spark out in his own backyard. :good

    Not scared to fight away, but 100% scared to fight Haye in England.

    I suggest they make it in Murrayfield in Edinburgh, Scotland, big 80k Rugby stadium, neutral venue and easy for me to get to :good

    Haye failed to procure an arena--simple as that. There's more profit for both men in Germany. Wlad is bigger in Germany than Haye is in England. It's a win for both fighters.

    Look its in Germany thats fine... but the fact is nothing would make Wlad fight Haye in England, he hasnt got the bottle, end of.

    Hence why Haye gets more credit for the fight happening

    Well done DH

    If Haye was so confident of beating Chagaev, why couldn't he fought him somewhere agreeable instead of hiding behind the BBBofC in England?

    Since he plans to KO Mr. Haye, he couldn't give a **** about the location from a boxing point of view.

    It's mainly the English food and weather that give him the willies.
