Wlad has been respectful the whole way and has provided Haye with an early chance to fight him in a stadium on Wlad's home turf Haye cancels the bout without confirmation about the type of injury. Wlad reacts respectfully Wlad then contacts Arreola, whom many think is the hardest hitting challenger around Wlad tries to secure the 20th because 60000 fans are depending on it. He can now choose to fight a bum or cancel the fight all together. But he goes for one of the highest ranked in the division, who has had a trainingcamp himself and showed at the weighin that he was in shape. Still people on here wanna call him boring, a ***** or saying he is ducking guys. I'm a big Wlad fan and the way he's handling this situation says a lot about him. I like Haye too(his big mouth is an act, I think he's quite likeable in real life) but Haye should have handled this more respectfully. Wlad has done anything to secure a high profile fight while being confronted with the cancellation a few week before the bout and he decides to take on the highest ranked southpaw, who is in fighting shape. I'll be there enjoying the bout on the 20th.
i'm a haye fan, and I dont blame wlad for everything like some do, i do think wlad is a boring fighter none the less......i think wlad is a classy guy.
Respect to Wlad. I'm real disapointed that we won't see Haye-Wlad on June 20th. But you know if it was the other way round Haye would be mouthing off throwing insults. Wlad has dealt with the whole affair like a humble warrior. No offense but he's a boring fighter to watch though, that's why it would have been great to see him in with a animal like Haye. Someone was going to get knocked out that's for sure.

Wladimir shows heart and take Chagaev on short notice. Props to Chagev and his promoter too and thank you that the event will take place on 20the of june! Great work from professional teams.
That's a useless statement, they would have to get in the ring to prove that, which Wlad has tried to do.
The guys been a gent alright. Can you imagine if Wladimir pulled out the fight-how would've Haye reacted? hahahaha
