That's it, people call him "promoter", but imo he is not, as he isn't independent, he gets paid by the Klitschkos. He's a financial manager type of man, who takes care of their business, strikes TV deals for them and does the marketing stuff for them, in addition he's their voice at press conferences, with the experience of the former TV journalist that he used to be. He's the ceo of their enterprise, yes, but they re the owners of the whole thing. They could sack him if they wanted to. If Vitali badly wanted Haye imo Boente is in no position to tell Vitali thats not gonna happen, maybe he could tell him I do not deem this a wise decision.
Quoted for truth. If Haye really wants another shot then he needs to prove he deserves it, he can't just talk his way into it. He's not even old at all, he should just fight Chisora and then the winner gets to fight Vitali, Bernd Boente even said so at the press conference.
If Haye wants a shot he can simply fight guys like Price, Fury or Chisora, pocket an easy 400/500k quid pay day and then launch an attack on either K brother. Without one or two tune-up's I doubt the fight will ever happen.
Amazing how you have guys on this thread all saying haye don't deserve a fight with vitali. but in another thread asking who is left for vitali to fight everyone is saying haye is the obvious choice. fight fans are so fickle
Haye is a good last farewell knockout win for Vitali. But not for a 50/50 split :rofl Brittards are delusional once again.
Bernd Bönte WHY ALL THE HATE? whats the deal? It's because he owned Haye by saying Dereck showed heart and you showed your toe lol
That's a slightly different scenario too losing every round while getting beat and then getting an instant shot at the other brother wouldn't you say.
All Bernd does is fill stadiums,make huge money for the Klits and delivers quality entertainment on tv,which pays additional dollars to K2. Who can argue with success?:deal
I don't even remember what good fights Haye has been in? He produced a number of snoozefests and disappointing **** fights, ran away from fights once signed and in general has been complaining and whining more than fighting. Certainly him and Booth put together no trackrecord allowing them to attack Bonte.
So Bonte works for Vitali does he? Vitali: I want to fight Haye! Bonte: That fight won't be happening. Vitali: I want a rematch to knock Chisora out! Bonte: There is no way that fight will happen. Seems a pretty strange way for an employer/employee relationship to operate to me. I wonder what's really going on there.
i don't know much about him but he seems like a ***** because he was unhappy with haye asking for 50% of the UK PPV money. No one cares when a klit bro fights, the UK don't speak of them they are nobodies you think anyone was speaking about chisora vs vitali in the UK, it was not mentioned people didn't even know vitali was even fighting let alone fighting a british man. I was suprised haye was giving them 50% of UK PPV money because i thought haye should get 70% of it because way more than 50% of those UK viewers will have only paid because haye's fighting, i bet haye isn't getting a slice of the german PPV money or if he does it would be small. Boente seems like one of those really greedy promoters like arum with too much pride. I believe booth when he said boente and them had an agreement in december and it was all sorted then january boente backed out wanting to offer them a less lucrative deal. Not a respectable business man or business move, you should stick to your word. and like some said earlier a great promoter will make the best fighters out there while making as much money possibly doing so. Boente is not making the best match ups possible when they are out there if he wants them.
you don't know anything about haye from your stupid comment you "don't remember what good fights haye has been in?" because you haven't seen more than two/three of his fights. He is nicknamed the 'hayemaker' he KO's motherfcuker in great fashion. He was a beast at CW and he had plenty of entertaining fights which ended in style. He has a very good KO record and has put on very nice performances using his speed and elusive movement to look cool and slick before KO'ing the opponent. You watched him fight wlad and maybe harrison and valuev and you think you can call him boring. Your an idiot, watch your mouth.
