    K2 offered crap terms, Haye knows they want all the belts so if he takes WBA he comes back to K2 in a position of power at the negotiating table. Seems like a common sense decision.

    Wonder why the same terms werent put on Arreola that were put on Haye?????

    Wlad's fight against Chagaev sold the seats as the fans were buying tickets for Wlad v Haye. Chagaev was the late replacement and fewer people probably attended on the night as a result.

    Also, Haye's fight was on a weekend between both Hatton and Calzaghe fighting in the States, seriously diminishing the attendance.

    Don't bet on it. He's likely in bed with King at this point with the commitments that entails (Ruiz, to start, possibly even a Valuev rematch). Even if he wants a Klit next year, I doubt he could do it.

    He's cool in my books if he does it, but I seriously doubt it will (or can) happen.

    Well, if that's the case, I apologize. I have nothing but respect for the way the British handled themselves in WW2. It was, as Churchill famously said, "their finest hour."

    I don't think this was the plan at all. I think everything changed after he found a better contract. From what I read - the Klits had a ****ed up contract - that if Haye was to win his first fight - he would have to either rematch the victim or fight the other brother. If he one that fight - he would have to do the same thing - so he was pretty much trapped in a 3 fight contract for winning. On top of that - most of his money was coming from the TV station that went bankrupt.

    Were as - he got a good contract with Valuev for a title - that if he wins will help him witht he negotiation process with the Klits.

    From a business stand point - he did the right thing. If he beats Valuev - he's getting one of the Klits regardless. There would be no better name out there than his.

    No need to apologise, I was just pointing out the TS has form on slagging the Brits and it's nothing to do with boxing, so Beeston Brawlers comment wasn't rash or the usual 'My dad's bigger than your dad' Britain-America nonsense that you get all over the internet.

    Haye already said he wanted to so when he won the WBA title he could have some power in negotiations with the K bros.

    I hope that's the plan as well but as someone else pointed out he could easily get caught up in the Ruiz-Chagaev-Valuev circle jerk and with Wlad having so many mandatories it could make a unification fight very difficult to pull off.

    You are an absolute idiot. If you honestly think that **** you posted is true. Haye will beat Valuev, then go after the Klitschkos, i have no doubt in that.

    Cause Haye was talking shitt on both of them and claimed they were the only two people he wanted to fight.. They gave him his wish and he bitched out... Arreola didnt go in talking non-stop **** like haye on both brothers.. apples and oranges...:patsch

    Haye is the one who wanted the sentana money it was his idea.. also its funny Haye calls it a slave contract when he has to fight both brothers he claimed to want to fight..
    but the Valuev, Ruiz, then likely Chagaev.... is a " good business move"
    I highly doubt he will ever get in the ring with either one he has already proven that he is not man enough to honor his comittments and cant be relied upon to carry through with his contracts... Vitaly already said he wouldnt deal with the " boothe Haye circus act" god that ******ed press conference with the fake Valuev was really ******ed...:deal

    Haye after beating Valuev will have to fight Ruiz first and then maybe Chagaev since Chagaev is the interim wba champ. Why you knuckle heads still forgetting about that?
