This guy is a genius! He gets all the publicity and marketability, without the ass kicking that was attached. He has become a top heavyweight without ever having to fight a top heavyweight. :yep
This is a smart move. Haye knows by delaying this fight this knocks wlad off his steroid cycle. Timing is everything.
The only thing i can think of is......... It's either the real deal and Haye is really injured )this is what I belive) Or because of Setanta's money problems, Haye has agreed with Sky and Wlad to postpone the fight until after Setatna go bust
I agree, if Setanta go into administration, then Haye would lose big time. Why risk it? The tickets are sold and the fight will go on, with a new opponent. Lets hope it's someone who has a chance of winning and gives it a go.
If I bought a ticket for Wlad vs Haye, I'd rather have the show canceled and get my money back than see Wlad vs Another Short Notice Bum.
Well if Setanta goes bust..... Haye won't be getting paid, or will get a deal like 10p in every pound.
haye is scared and knows he will get BRUTALLY knocked out. he knew it before he signed. He knew it by the way Wladimir responed to his challenge and disrespect. don't forget how long he dodged signing the contract and wanted to blame the lawyers. haye is a phony and knows he can't beat Wlad who is unbeatable now. it's a smart business decision but ultimately a show of cowardice and fraud by haye. this is a major mental victory by Wladimir, another win, like Tyson and Ali, another win long before the first bell even rings. That is how supremely dominant he is. Though once again, as is the tale of his career, Wladimir won't get the credit he deserves.
