HBO will only approve Wlad/Haye for July 11, not interested in Chagaev as replacement

    You do realise that the link goes to nothing more than an unsourced post by an overwhelmingly biased David Haye dick sucker, right? Swann and Axe man have posted about 500 times about this fight today alone, and they both talk gibberish.

    This issue is really bringing the idiots to the surface on the GF. Its like no fight can ever been postponed (for whatever reason) without one of the fighters being a ****** or a coward.

    smart move by HBO, theres been enough hype, intriguing? yes, competative? no

    I haven't been this sure about a fight since Tyson\Lewis

    It was from Dan Rafael's chat. Trust me, that man is always in the know. If he said it then it is legit. He has a LOT of contacts in boxing. Golden Boy, Top Rank all tell him what's happening.

    I think Wlad won't fight Chagaev without HBO. The people at Schalke said the stadium would be for July 11th but Wlad's manager said he would have to see what the tv networks would do.

    Great news as a Haye fan but this shows how far the HW division has fallen when HBO won't show a fight between the no.1 and no.3 in the division.

    Have they :huh

    The assumption seems to be that if Wlad goes ahead with Chagaev then Wlad will miss out on the HBO money (which Rafael says is a 7 figure sum) and the Setanta money.
