Exactly. Maybe - who knows - Haye would actually want to fight but Sauerland insist they will only allow fights that enable them to get future options on the opponents. Maybe Sauerland wants to milk the WBA strap as long as possible and do not want to risk losing it in a no-options unification fight. Sauerland has a history of blocking unification fights with the brothers, they did the same using the TV station excuse in 2007 when a Klitschko - Valuev fight was being discussed.
If Vitali or Vlad offered Haye 100% Haye would still refuse! Will the WBA have the balls to force Haye to fight Chagaev? Chagaev really did beat Valouev, unlike Haye. Vlad beat Chagaev and won WBA title in the ring. WBA gave title to Valouev and then their judges gave Haye a gift. Haye appeared to know he did not have to fight to win decision.
People are saying Ahh but Wlad has 3 belts, he deserves more. i agree with that to an extent, HOWEVER even with david's ONE belt he can draw in more money than klit can from three belts. Bearing that in mind, david haye certainly deserves a 50-50 split or keep uk tv money. Klit has the belts, yet haye has the earning potential. Seems a fair reason to split it for me. Plus he will knock wlad out. he wont be in range to be on receiving end of jab and he'll get in close and unload. He WILL connect with wlad and he will go down.
You should've made this poll public, Chef. Wow. About thirty percent don't think Haye should take the deal. ...What the hell is going on around here?
i guess the 30% think haye should get MORE then 50%... or they just dont think Haye should get in the ring with Wlad
like i've said before, i've backed haye all the time, but it now does look like he's ducking wladimir.
Wow it is quite enlightening how many people were shredding CHEF for saying 50-50 no options was offered. Where are all those guys who called CHEF a biased liar with an agenda? They all disappeared?!
bigger draw in england sure, where he can pull about 1/3 of the crowds wlad can in germany. so no...he's not the bigger draw nor does he have the earning potential
