    According to sources including ESPN, Haye was not satisfied with the contract for his 9/12 fight vs Vitali Klitschko, so I guess he's going to fight Nikola Valuev on 11/7 instead.

    What are your feelings on Haye backing out?

    Mad at Haye?

    Mad at Klitschko?

    If Hayes win then it will build up a Haye vs Klitschko for next year. The Hayes people know at this time they have a better chance at beating the slower but bigger Valuev. They know that Big Val dosn't have big power and that he hasn't fought vs a ok Puncher. So Val might not have a solid chin. So a fight with Val would be the smart move at this time.

    How much you want to bet Haye Valuev will never happen. Haye has to deal with Don King... good luck with that

    I can hear it now. "Don Kings wants option, I dont like the contract"

    Apparently? So it's not confirmed yet. :D

    Just for the sake of arguement . . . in case he does pull out . . . Haye has already shown what he is really made of. He has a big mouth but no balls.

    Who called out the Klits anyway? Nobody is forcing him to fight the Klits . . . it's just him who can't shut his mouth.

    . . . further more it will justify the story that he pulled out of the Wlad fight not because of injury but because of money . . . the injury was fake . . . shame on him.

    The more I read, the more I think it looks like Haye was having the next 2 years dictated to him. In light of his self confidence and what he has said about cleaning the division up - I can see him thinking he wasn't going to have that and wanted to collect at least a full belt before he signed, to give himself more negotiating power.

    In fact it makes perfect sense - disappointingly.

    Haye had dealt with Don King fine before so why wouldn't he now?

    Thats the stupid thing, Haye wins the fight and yet his purse is still less for the re matches.

    According to reports, Haye has signed the contract Chef. He obviously likes it more than the one that was offered by VITLAY.
