    I dont know where you live. But Klitschko has not to promote his name, esp. not with Haye, being a huge celebrety in Germany and for 8 years now regularly on live HBO-shows and american Late Nioght shows, as the big Heavyweight thing. I guess you are from the UK....

    Is this a serious post.

    Wlad is a two-belt champion (Admittedly in a comparatively weak era) and is in the driver's seat here.

    Haye is a nobody in Heavyweight terms.

    If Wlad wants him to come to the ring dressed in frilly pink knickers, then that's what the lad needs to do.

    A challenger (especially one with as little pull as Haye) does what's needed to get his title shot.

    IF he wins, then HE's in the driver's seat and can dictate future terms.

    If the fight falls through, it's because Haye has gotten cold feet (or never wanted it in the first place.)



    IMO, Areola is a sterner challenge than Haye anyway, and neither one would give Wlad much trouble.




    So, to my original point, was this a serious post ?


    If yes, get off the crack.

    It's cheap, but in the long run, a poor choice.

    Help is available !

    Well, now...that changes things considerably. I just want to see Haye's ass get handed to him by a Klitschko.

    The hassle of negotiations aside, we all know that Haye would be a much more in demand opponent for Wlad than Arreola. Haye / Klitschko would be a mega fight at heavy.

    Arreola Klit would be a waste of time, and would not get Wlad much of anything......... big money or prestige. Arreola is not seen as a threat, nor is he marketable like Haye is.

    Beating Haye would be more beneficial for Wlad than anyone he's ever faced, period.

    Maybe that's why.

    Wise move by Haye to let Schaefer from Golden boy handle the negotiations from now on. He and Booth were screwing things up.

    Now we should probably hear something on a deal in a week or so.

    I think you are there man. Hide will be more respected if he has a few more fights.
    Golota?

    Sam's coming in like that and eating that right hand.
    Haye better be ready.
    This type of explosion has him in the hospital.
    Peter's chin is unbelievable.

    If Haye fought Peter right now, I really dont know who I would favor. Though given Peter's really good chin and Heavy hands, Haye may find himself in a "Nightmare" before fights end. Though after Peter's terrible performance against Vitali a few months back, I sorta question what Samuel has left. If Haye can come in and land a few Hayemakers, Peter may have another McCline moment, but unlike McCline, Haye's a great finisher. I think Haye/Peter would be one hell of a fight.
