Hilarious that both of them want the untested Polish prospect. Haye's options are limited. Probably the best fight we fans could hope for is Haye vrs. Chagaev or Boystov or Ortiz. Is there an outside chance Haye faces Fury? Idk. Looks likely he will face Wawrzyk or Pudar or Hanks.....if he's really considering fights like that then he may as well consider fighting some aging American legend like RJJ or Toney or Holy since those fights would sell much better.
Another duck by Haye. Too bad, it looked like it was a done deal but I guess Haye is looking for the lowest-risk alternative and Charr doesn't fit the bill. Too brash, too big, too tough, too hard-hitting: This content is protected
And you would think with Vittles rant of it not being about money but personal that he'd fight Haye. He must have gotten over it. :rofl
He shouldn't have to. I mean no one else in the division does. Haye should be allowed to fight soft touches just to stay busy and keep his ranking until an Eliminator or title shot comes his way. Isn't that the way of today's bigger, better heavyweight division works?
If he wants to get mandatory in two or three fights he has to fight high ranked opponents! I said he wont fight Fury or Arreola because both of them are already fighting other opponents. Also Povetkin is already mandatory. Why should he fight Haye if he wants to fight Wladimir in sumer? Haye has to fight a high ranked opponent one day if he wants to get mandatory. Just like Fury who fights Cunningham AND then has to make the next step by fighting an eliminator fight against a high ranked contender.
Went right off Haye after his performance against Waldo (..or lack of) but cant understand what would be the point of fighting Charr.. he is an absolute nobody and would be a waste of time training for such a fight.
I think you're wrong. Haye is the WBA's number one contender. If Povetkin fights and loses to Wlad that puts Haye into an automatic Eliminator for the regular title which if he won makes him Wlads mandatory for that belt. No reason he should take undo chances when no one else is and jeopardize that. I of course would prefer that all the contenders took tougher fights to retain their rankings, but what's good for one should be good for all. There shouldn't be different sets of standards though.
Really? Who has Wlad, Vittles or Povetkin fought lately? Fury has ducked Pulev and so has Adamek. You don't even want me to get into the alphabet top 10's and show who's been fighting who. This era sucks because of that.
