I understand what you are saying about Haye, but he doesn't want to giving up a percentage of his biggest ever purse to Sauerland and Co.
Exactly. And instead of saying how it is Haye is blaming things on the Klitschkos -- who I believe are quite innocent here. Haye's contract with Sauerland is to blame and Haye should simply shut the f*** up about the Klitschkos being greedy. It's Sauerland who have their hands in Haye's pocket, not the K brothers.
Sorry but if Haye vs Ruiz can do 20,000 at the MEN so can Haye vs Chagaev. He gets a higher percentage of the PPV revenue due to his new deal with Sky and your excluding any money from sponsership and worldwide TV.
If Haye is serious about retiring in October he'd be crazy not to sign a Klitschko fight next. 50:50 versus one of the brothers trumps what he can earn fighting anyone else, easily. If Haye wants more than 50:50, tough, that's the offer on the table and I don't think anyone can call that an unfair offer.
Agree with you tbh mate. I just done see why he wont sign the contract for a 50:50 split! Afterall thats what he has been saying for the past 1 yaer + that he will fight the Klits and beat them both and unify the divison "ill fight either klitschko brother ill knock them both out" G
What worldwide TV? Oh you mean Ireland? What sponsorship? What company is sponsoring a guy who admits he's betting on himself and who wants to gang **** his opponent? Warren reported Haye lost a big potential sponsor thanks to the outrage over his betting scandal. Haye is such a smart business man!
It was refreshing to read a good discussion about K2 and Haye then as per usual madballster comes in and changes the tone. Please just ignore him guys and carry on.
I don't understand that guy. He must be 15 years old or something - all I see him do is come on the Brit forum talk about David Haye. Yet apparently he hates him. Weird kid
Haye himself and the promotion make a huge amount of money from sponsership. The fight was shown in most european countrys, Canada, Africa and south asia where Haye is a big star unlike the Klitskcos and the TV money is lucrative. The betting stuff has already been forgotten about. at the end of the day Haye made more money in his last two fights than the Klitskcos did, and that includes paying his opponents over £1million each.
Where are you getting this from? How much did Wladimir and Vitali make for their last two fights and how much did Haye make? When you claim Haye generates more money you are forgetting two things 1. After the Harrison fight any ppv not involving a Klitschko will not sell anywhere near what Valuev or Harrison did. 2. A fight with either Klitschko will likely top the sales of Haye's biggest selling ppv event. So these are Haye's options - Option A. Duck the Klitschkos and in doing so lose a lot of fans, who only came onboard because of his promise to try to unify the division, and make a lot less money fighting dud opponents. Option B. Fight one or both Klitschkos for 50% which will make more money than he can ever hope to make fighting anyone else. If he's greedy like a lot of people think, he will go for option B. If he's scared of losing as I happen to think, he will go for option A.
Haye is stalling until the remaining option with saureland is completed. I expect him to fight chagaev or someone similar, then fight one of them next year. 50-50 worldwide split is as fair as you are going to get.
The first bit is nonsense. The second bit is quite true. But the brothers are very greedy and twice have sent contracts that differ between agreement and actual word.
