I would obviously blame Haye, and also lose all respect for him (ooooh im sure haye is shaking in his boots ) but for real, if he declines that, i know im not the only one that will have a change of heart on him for good and that will actually probably effect him one way or the other, at least in terms of constantly being heckled by fans and media about dodging the Wlad fight. That being said, i think the terms should be Wlad - 50% Haye - 40% The other 10% goes to the winner. and also, anyone who wouldnt blame haye for not taking 40 to fight the heavyweight champ, and the guy who hes 'been chasing' (yaaa... riiiight) and talking **** about, then... wow :-(
I know the boxing business is something on its own and in that regards Wlad rightfully deserves the bigger share for the time being but there comes a time when a fight just needs to be made and the most mature party will make sure it does. If David Haye would ever decline a 50-50 split, then all his credibility would vanish instantly. He would immediately show that he's a *****. Klitschko is already a multi-millionaire and money will never be a problem for him. To make sure the fight gets made, he needs to somewhat put his ego and pride aside and offer a full 50-50 split. Haye would have litterally NO EXCUSE to refuse the fight. Wlad needs to put Haye against the wall with all the pressure on is back. He'll sign immediately or look like a little *****.....
When I said it was stupid, I was talking about the immediate blame trying to be apportioned to someone. I understand what you are saying though. It's just negotiations are part and parcel of creating fights. Haye will obviously say no to a low % share, to try and get some more. What kind of businessman accepts the fist deal proposed to them? And Wlad will obviously try and low-ball Haye to start the negotiations rolling. Nothing wrong with that either. However, if after a month of negotiations they can't come to an agreement, they they are BOTH to blame.
All Wlad needs to do is say 50-50 on everything, put it out in public immediately and make Haye look like a total idiot if he refuses to go with it.....after all the bull**** scenes he's made about the Klitschkos. He would look like this decade's biggest fake asss clown !
Haye should fight for ****ing free. He has a handful of fights at heavy and he wants to dictate? Ridiculous.
Like I previously said before, Klitschko deserves more but there comes a time when the ego and pride is in the way to make something that needs to happen. Wlad won't suffer from a few millions less in his bank account in order to get the chance to put a real beating on Haye. He just needs to make sure he will do it. At 50-50, if Haye finds any excuse...ANY EXCUSE...he'll be a 100% ***** in the eyes of all the casual fans, never mind the real fans !!
I would blame Haye, which I already do for the fight not having happened already. 40% is more than fair.
Then what's Wlad doing calling out some guy who's only had a handful of fights at heavyweight? If that's the case, then Wlad must have bigger fish to fry; bigger fights to take on???
