UK people want to see this fight. Haye is not known in the US or even in Germany. There is no pressure of the media to make the fight happen. Haye will definitely become the lauging number and not Wlad, screaming for a year to make the fight and then backing finally out. Wlad will remain the champ. Some folks here are living in the "Haye dream world".
Nothing to do with the boxing media. First Vitali said "Haye has threatened and dishonoured the Klitschko family honour and he will be punished" then followed up a few weeks later with "Oh yeah, I would punish him, but I totally forgot I'm washing my hair that night". In steps little brother Wladimir saying "Its my head that Haye held in his hands. Therefore it is my fight." How embarrassing for the 'Klitschko family honour' if neither of them show up!
The boxing media has been screaming for this fight for the best part of a year. The only reason a Wlad fight has never fallen through is because he hasn't faced anyone worth a damn.... Money wise And who the **** are Toney and Rahman.... they are total hasbeens same as Barrett so i don't see your point
And who the **** is Haye? Toney is an ATG and sure HOF and has more accomplishments than Haye can ever dream off. Rahman is a 2-time heavyweight champ having beaten LL. Who has Haye beaten? Mormeck that is it.That is the reality folks. The UK boxing media might scream for this fight but not the general media as Haye has yet to beat a contender. Nevertheless, I hope the fight come through and brings some excitement back to the division.I am just losing faith in Haye. He just seems to be talking. Hopefully, he proves me wrong.
"Family drama", "dishonoured"...it is all meaningless talk to market the fight and irrelevant in the eyes of the media.Haye has not beaten a contender so far, that is what counts so there is no pressure to make the fight happen. You don't create pressure with photos and words, you have to perform with your fists inside the ring.
How old is Toney ??? How old is Rahman ??? And your wrong the U.S and U.K boxing media have been screaming for the fight before we get another Wlad v Arreola/Toney snoozefest
So the Klitschkos are just WWE style performers, tossing around talk of 'family dishonour' and vengeance to hype a fight, but not really meaning it? I see :think
Just read another report, it really seems that the fight is off. It looks like Areola-Wlad. I am sure that Areola will make reasonable demands and for Wlad it does not really matter if he fights Areola or Haye as Haye in not more credible right now. I hope Haye will now face at least the "old" Toney who was in talks to fight Areola on 11th april.
Yes and no. Wlad does not care about those things at all. The elder brother is a little different as he has by his own admission always taking care and protected his family. But like I said, it is irrelevant to the media, so it is Haye who looke ridicoulous right now.
Yeh i'm sure Arreola would fight for a couple of Burrito's..... But thats not the point, Arreola is a domestic level boxer, Haye was a UNDISPUTED CW champion of the world and held the WBA, WBC, WBO, Ring belts all at the same time.... something Wlad has never been able to do in his division.
atsch Toney and Rahman never wanted the fight. The only person who had the balls was Barrett. Haye did'nt even want to fight Barrett and slagged him off originally. Also, **** the media. The fan's are the ones who drive this ****. The fans are screaming out for Haye vs Wlad.
