    The Klitsckos new TV deal with RTL is worth 15million Euros over 5 fights to the Brothers. Thats is about £12.5 million, which is £2,500,000 per fight from German TV.

    Hayes last two fights on Sky PPV averaged 750,000 PPV buys. With Hayes deal giving him 1/3 of each buy, thats £3,750,000 from UK TV.

    Without David Haye there will be no HBO who will pay at least £750k for the fight.

    Haye vs Wladamir when originally scheduled sold 60,000 tickets. Since then no Klitsckos has done more than 50,000. Hayes fight with Valuev got 8.4 million viewers in Germany. Valuevs previous high was for Holyfield, 7mil. Vitali vs Sosnowski got 7.1 million.

    Wladamir's last fight with Eddie Chambers will have made £2,000,000 at the gate. Hayes last fight with Ruiz will have made £1,250,000 at the gate.

    Haye deserves at least 30% of the purse as he brings allot of money to the table, maybe even more than the Klitsckos.

    Have the Klitsckos offered Haye at least 30% with no options??? If not then there is no ducking.

    800k+ for Haye vs Valuev

    reports after Ruiz stated numbers were as high.

    What's the source for this?

    I have at no time heard anything of the sort.

    It sounds highly questionable.

    Haye has run his mouth saying how easily he will beat them. He needs to take whatever they offer him and go and beat them. Then the ball is in his court and he can call all the shots and make all the money.

    Dont be a ****wit. This is a business.

    I could say the same thing about the Klitschkos. Theyve both said their ambition is to hold all the belts. Do they take whatever is offered by Haye. Of course not.

    These people fight for money.

    It should really be 60/40 split in Wlad favor cause he holds 3 title belts of the ibf, wbo, ibo in which he's the ring magazine heavyweight champion. Haye holds a paper belt that should have been given to Wlad since Wlad beat the real champion Chagaev. Awesome that Haye is a bit better drawer in the uk then Wlad is in germany but since it be on hbo on america tv, in america public people don't know who the hell is David Haye while many public america clearly knows who wlad is. Wlad fought on hbo, showtime, espn while Haye barely is on showtime but never been on espn or hbo. 60/40 in Wlad favor or 50/50 split is a fair offer.

    75 people bought Haye-Ruiz. 30 more thought about it but decided not to buy, denying Haye the honour of eclipsing the 100 mark.
    Haye is worth about 15% of the purse for a fight against Wlad. Klitschko will offer more because he is a nice guy.
