    Question in the title

    David Haye has been pretty vocal about wanting to fight Anthony Joshua, this is no secret.

    My question is if Klitschko beats Joshua, will David Haye then pull-out all the stops and call out Klitschko at every opportunity like he has been doing to AJ the last few months?

    Discuss.

    He will call him out but he won't fight him again, He'll change direction and target Wilder or Parker/H Fury.

    Haye will look for the biggest money fight available, end of story. He's done extremely well once again getting an easy huge payday v Bellew.

    Tbf its no different to what every other boxer is doing. I dont think he calls out klitchko if he loses. Its a bit of a lose lose situation. I think wlad would still probably beat him again...just very good at using his superior height/reach advantage. Still fancy haye against joshua though even if joshua beat klitchko. Its all about styles. Think theres a reason joshua,s not really been up against a fast heavyweight so far.

    Oops ignore i thought the thread was will haye call out klitchko if joshua beats klitchko. Its pretty late at night.

    Haye vs Bellew II will quickly be drawn up WHEN Wlad gets past AJ

    If it goes the full 12 rounds this could very much happen. Either way, I think Bellew will be his last ever opponent. He has the luxury of walking away with all his faculties and a lot of money to focus on his new business venture.

    He's not interested in AJ or anyone else. He's calling him out to keep/make him relevant. None of these fella's are talking about Haye. Hence why he's fighting a cruiserweight.

    I think the Joshua-Haye fight probably becomes more likely in the event of AJ losing.
    If AJ beats Wladimir I'd like to think Hearn would be confident enough to set up further unifications for AJ or tempt Tyson Fury out.
    Whoever wins Parker-H.Fury fight on the 1st April will probably be the likely candidate if AJ wins.

    Haye will be wasting his time calling out Wladimir if Wladimir wins.

    Haye's best plan would try to work out how to string the Bellew rivalry into a trilogy.

    I agree.

    They are not talking about Haye because he just hasn't done anything at heavyweight for several years. Even after this Bellew fight he will still be as irrelevant as he was when he first announced his comeback.

    A come back would have been fighting two top 10 guys which would basically force the champions to look at him. The guy just isn't interested, he just wants a payday.

    Klitschko is the wrong style for Haye......................Haye has a much better chance against Joshua, Parker, and probably would knock Wilder out cold, so go for Wilder.............

    My take is slightly different: David's calculations drives scenarios that involve the best available combination of low risk and high return. Sometimes that equates to the biggest money fight available. Sometimes it doesn't.
