    Here's Booth on SkySports explaining how Vitali's WBC belt is more prestigious and they're more interested in Vitali rather than Wlad. This was just 6 months ago, wonder what made them change their mind again?

    Remember this now...


    Booth wants the Klits to fight each other and then claims the Audley fight is a non starter.

    If Haye's problem is the contact surely it would be the same if he fought Wlad or Vitali so...?

    Haye knows full well that he is making serious dollars from the American tv market if either fight gets made.

    the problem with Haye is he wants to maximise his revenue, he doesn't want a career high payday to be picked apart because he has to pay a percentage to other parties.

    I think he may take another fight before he takes on at least one of the brothers, but I think he will get out of the Chagaev mandatory unless the WBA force him to travel to defend it - so to get Sauerland off his back and gain a smidgen of respect back then he should be looking at Adamek or Boytsov fights that can sell in Germany or Poland for good money and gets him free of ARD & Sauerland in the process.

    Haye has a bigger chance against Wladimir, imo. After Wlad bashes Chisora in 6 rounds hopefully Haye can accept the 50/50 straight and get it on.

    He hasn't got the power to hurt Vitali and Vitali would keep picking him off. Bad fight for Haye.

    I agree with the previous poster saying Wlad is the true HW champion.

    The WBA are simply a joke. Chagaev was the real WBA champion but was made 'super' champion during his forced inactivity. Meanwhile Valuev won the 'regular/interim' WBA title.

    Chagaev then fights Wlad but the WBA dont sanction..so Valuev ends up being upgraded to the paper champ.

    So in reality Wlad should hold the WBA title...Haye holds the paper copy.

    actually Chagaev was moved to "champion in recess" for whatever difference that makes.

    "They know what he is going to do, and they still can do anything about it"

    I think Haye beats both of them, makes sense to go after Vitali first as he is the more respected, plus get him now befor he turns 40, after wlad watches haye beat big brother he will **** himself and wont be a problem
