    From a Sky Sports Interview:

    “To unify the titles against Wladimir or Vitali [Klitschko] would be absolutely huge for my legacy. If it doesn’t happen in two years, then it doesn’t happen. However, I will find someone to secure my legacy with.”

    He wants the fight but he is also saying if it doesn't come off he will fight who ever it takes to get his due. He's not saying it will not happen

    he really doesn't need them now. Haye needs more experience before he fights either Klitchko. They are too big for him. I think he should defend his title against other guys and gain experience. Otherwise he will lose to them by knockout and never be the fighter he could become.

    Agreed he needs to beat Valuev more convincing hopefully inside 12 then beat the Meehan Chag winner big and then consider the fights. He needs them for his resume if he wants to be what he hypes himself to be but to be the best he can just wait for them to retire and take all the belts

    he's right.

    he wants to fight them, but he can secure his legacy without them.

    spot on

    #1. I don't think Haye can beat either Klitschko

    #2. No other heavyweight fighters can secure his legacy. Waiting until they both retire would do absolutely nothing positive for his legacy.

    How can he secure his legacy without fighting a Klitschko?

    He went on and on and on about them, and then pulled out twice.

    Haye has already proven that he never wanted to fight Vitali or Vlad, which is why he broke two contracts with them and ran.

    I dont think he beats them either but he has a good chance better than anybody else.

    Not saying a purposeful duck of the brothers til retirement but in all honesty he'll never fight Vitali the rematch with Valuev then the Mandatory Vitali is gonna retire in a year or so. He may get Wlad but if that never materializes Wlad will retire young with no opposition left. Haye can make up for no bros on his record by unifying the 4 belts something Lewis and Wlad or Vitali never did. Also he can still beat guys like Adamek Solis Areolla and a crap load of young Euro's.

    I dont like Haye that much and I'd hate if the bros n him never fight its like the Manny Floyd of the HWT's but if it does not happen Haye has other routes

    The thing about boxing is that there are many paths to greatness even in a klitschko-dominated heavyweight division.

    Haye makes way too many mistakes and like all Wlad challengers he relis on power alone if he cant get Wlad out he will be dumbfounded and without a strategy and get hammered

    I think he can beat Wlad. Wlad has no chin, he might have a good jab but thats his only weapon, and we've seen Wlad get knocked out before.

    No I don't believe Wlad will have an easy time with Haye because Haye a long reach and is a puncher.

    You act as if Wlad can take a punch from Haye. If Haye could knock down Ruiz he could knock out Wlad. Ruiz has a better chin than Wlad.
