    Haye knows once Vitali retires, a mega payday will have slipped away. I think Haye sees 2012 as *now or never* to make this big payday......


    I think the fight will happen, and, assuming Vitali wins, this will be Vitali's last fight.

    But I dont' see Haye taking any warmups. Too risky and no gain to be made, other than blowing off ring rust, and I don't think Haye will see that as worth the risk.

    He could tuneup on some schmuck and would benefit from it, but he's not going to stoop low for an obvious warmup, and I don't see him risking an Adamek level warmup, either.

    I think after the Chisora beating, we'll hear from a cocky, mouthy Haye on how bad Vitali looked against a bum he should have taken out in half the time........regardless of how quickly Vitali does take Chisora out.

    Good take......if Haye's only in it for the $$$, he'll likely be fighting Vitali in the late summer.

    If he's looking to regain some respect, and perhaps take over the fight game, he'll fight Price/Fury for the Commonwealth titles, or fight Pulev, Dimi, Boystov, or Wach for the EBU.

    Obviously it appears Haye is in it for the $$$ otherwise he'd have already line Fury or Dimi up, and or been in there instead of Chisora that night in Helinski.:deal

    Not a chance, Vitalis stock is gonna drop incredibly when he loses to world stage novice Chisora, possibly even retire.

    Haye also has too much pride to fight a man coming off such a one sided and embarrassing defeat, he'll fight Chisora at Wembley stadium in the summer some time

    Who knows maybe Haye can get to an aging Vitali.

    However HBO would be more interested in broadcasting Haye vrs. Arreola or Adamek. Either of these fights would be more interesting for the fans and would do more for Haye's reputation.

    Doubt it. It is hard to come back after the career ending toe injury.

    K2's Bonte has pretty much ruled it out. Haye has been demanding guarantees and high purse splits but he doesn't bring any PPV revenues anymore. Bonte said Vitali-Haye 'will never happen' unless Haye relaxes his remands.

    Well, Haye now sees that Vitali obviously can find other oppoents for his last few fights. I think Haye will realize VItlai fights on with or without him, and Haye's demands will become more agreeable after the Chisora fight.

    I think we'll see Vitali talking about fighting someone else after Chisora, and Haye will see he's about to miss the boat, for good, and will come around.

    I doubt Haye's ego will allow Lennox to be part of his training team, though.

    ^:deal Wach is unavailable for the EBU though, as he lives in the U.S.

    No because Haye is delusional about how much he is worth.

    One way or the other, Vitali ain't going anywhere. There was an article just a few weeks ago where he said that it takes him 3 hours a day to train, leaving him plenty of time for politics or whatever else.

    The haters are just going to have to get used to the fact that Vitali is going to be around for a long time. When he says, over and over again, that he does not want to break Foreman's record, he is just being coy.
