    Right after Haye beat Ruiz, Booth said.. "we want the Klitschkos but we wont talk for less then 50-50"

    should have said.."we want the klitschkos but we wont talk for less then 50-50 and we keep our TV cash"

    you guys would be ripping wlad if he did this

    Maybe it's time to start it then?

    I mean if WALDO is as great and as popular as you claim over there then people will happily pay for it right?

    There wasn't PPV in England up until around 1990, I'm surprised the Krauts are so far behind us in this.

    Again, if WALDO wants this fight so badly, why let the UK TV money ruin the deal, because that's what it seems has been the problem. Maybe money means more than honour to the glass jawed champ, right?

    Boxing doesn't work like that. You don't get extra money in a fight like this solely because you're the champion. Mosley was the champ when he fought Mayweather and received 30% of the pot. If Wlad feels that the deal isn't fair, then he should reject. The truth though is, Haye can make a ton of money fighting much lesser fighters. The longer this fight takes to make, the older and possibly more vulnerable Wlad becomes. Boxing isn't about belts, or championship defenses anymore. It's all about money. Whoever brings in the most money calls the shots.

    you can lay all the facts you want all day long in black and white

    these dickheads choose not to see them or try to spin them

    facts are facts.....Haye doesnt want to fight and i cant see him with a save face fight after the ruiz debacle

    Ah insult time, how predictable.

    WALDO has NOT given up millions, he stands to make more millions from the Haye fight than any fight he's had before, yet he's being greedy with the TV options is how I read it.

    You think Haye cares if some guy on a message board thinks he's a *****? If Wlad is all about proving he's the best, then why is he squabbling over some t.v money when he's already insanely rich? All of these guys are about the money. Don't be fooled.

    1. What does PPV matter to you?
    2. How on earth is not having PPV, being "behind"?

    Germany is one of the boxing capitals in the world, meanwhile.. where there are PPV, boxing slightly struggles.

    If money meant more, surely he would never bargain for 50-50, given the fact that he's the recognized world champion?
    You are truly pathetic.

    I totally agree:good

    Like I said many times... Haye is all about $$$$ not "fighting the best" or "cleaning out the division"

    Its always 'problems with contracts" from Booth

    i know how boxing works...trust me
    i also know maybe i could see your point if your boy would not have called the guy out for years and made tshirts, yada yda...what hes gonna do, clean the division, get rid of the klitschkos.... but in reality hes pulled out of 2 fights and doing everything he can to not get so close to another fight.....
    prob is, haye is not the bigger draw....if anything, its dead even. let him go put audley vs himself on ppv and see how that sells...see if ita picked up on u.s. tv or just see what it will do on uk side....no ones paying for his bull**** anymore unless its against a real fighter

    if booth and haye said "we will fight for no less then 50-50" and "I want to fight the best" and "I want to clean out the division".. why is Haye squabbling over it?

    Its the fight that Haye has been demnding and screaming about for 2 years and he is holding out for because he doesnt want to give up 50% of Uk revenue:patsch:patsch

    You tell me any truly recognized, unified champion who are making his 9th world title defense in history, that offered 50-50 to a mere paper belt holder.

    Go on, please do.. I am waiting.
