Haye wants to become the nr. 1 at heavyweight, therefore he had to beat both klitschkos. He could have gone the other way and beat some fighers at heavyweight to become the nr. 1 contender, now he gets an shot with only one win over barrett.
'Then' with an E, rather than with an A. Different meanings, you may not have realised. Sorry if its confusing.:yep
Why yes he did, you are absolutely correct. Only he held the WBC, WBA and the little regarded in some quaters WBO. But let me inform you......there are 4 major belts which are all as corrupt as each other, but 4, WBC, WBA, IBF, and the WBO. He wasnt the undisputed, being undisputed was Lewis even though he had only 2 belts after being stripped. Just a little lesson:good
This is the same David Haye that took MONTHS to handpick Monte Barrett a fighter that Wlad Klitschko had KOed 8 years previous. Why on earth would Haye fight Monte Barrett to prepare for either Klitschko? It was stupid and pointless. Haye should have fought someone like Dimitrenko that has height and the European style etc. We all know why he didn't because he was scared to lose his big payday with Klitschko. This is a fight between a complete fighter in Klitschko and an incomplete fighter in Haye.
Woa where did all this come from. All i was doing was replying to a sarcastic comment that you made about my mention of speaking to a man who works with the man who is going to fight. I dont fault Haye for wanting to fight the best, but what i do find fault with is everyone believing Haye and vilifying Wlad. When the case will be a bit of both. Haye and Booth arent putting any money up for the fight so why should they be entitled to any "extras"? People seem to just be nit picking at a guy who is educated, polite and approachable and apart from the Ibragimov fight has finished everyone in his title reign. And at the same time hero worshipping a guy who has proven **** all at heavy and he runs his mouth, is rude and infact he is more obnoxious than Antonio Tarver which is saying something. I wasnt questioning YOUR exact view on Klit or Haye more an overall, if that makes any sense?
I believe he fought Barrett because he knew Barrett was hittable, leaky defence and even Couser had sparked him. Therefore i think he thougt he could of disposed of Barrett in a couple of rounds and looked good doing it. But you are right fighting Barrett will not prepare you for Wlad.
Wlad Klitcshko is a big ***/***** if he doesnt allow Haye and the winner of Maskaev-Vitali to fight for the RING Legitimate Championship. This "6 month Rematch Clause" is a bunch of ****, and if I was Haye, and I KO's gay Frankenstein 1, I'd take it to court, afterwards to try and face Vitali/Maskaev instead.
So did Lennox Lewis not have a rematch clause in the Holyfield and Tyson matches, oh and also Rahman?? Also any other CHAMPIONSHIP fight that he took part in? A rematch clause is a given, and as ive said also Haye wanted to fight Vitali so he then gets Vitali.....in other words he gets everything he asked for.
simple... if it sucked and Haye didnt like it as much as he has been complaining in the media about it.... he shouildnt have signed. PERIOD! Haye said NO 2 times before to the contract, why YES this time. If he didnt like it, he could go fight his way to a madatory. I wonder why he didnt do it that way:hey:roll: To sign it, then complain about it in the media is a ***** move
What gets me is how the Haye fans think the contract was just made up and sent to Haye. They were in talks for weeks/months..... the options were NOTHING NEW. Haye talking **** about the contract in the media AFTER he signed it is a ***** move.
