    he will get vastly more for this fight than he would have against rahman.
    he aint no mug, he knows this sells out wherever its staged, tv rights, t shirts etc.... plenty of coin for mr haye for this bout...

    Haye took this fight because it is good for Boxing, especialy British Boxing, but so did Macca.
    Even though Haye is doing good for boxing, it's not as if he isn't getting payed much for it, I've heard talk of £500,000. Which is good for a fight which will only create interest from the British, and it is at Cruiserweight aswell, which is not a popular division, in all honesty.

    True, but Macca has much more to gain in this fght, whereas Haye has very little to gain.

    Haye wouldnt be doing this if he wasnt being very very well paid, dont worry about that.

    He has been well paid all through his career. He is quite commercial and knows how much he is worth.

    It will be a great fight probably on a parralell to eubank benn one for the drama because everybody predicted a benn win because of his punching power. Whatever happens great fight for the british public. I have to agree with Scurlaruntings and hatton and witter need to pull their fingers out and stop back biting.

    Half a million is good money for a cruiserweight title fight.

    i reckon the avg price on a ticket for this fight will be 150-00 - i thought the calzaghe fight was expensive for what it was - ild be intersted to see if warrens gonna charge 500-00 for ringside again..
