Is Haye gonna get frozen out of the title picture??

You really can't tell this to someone that has never taken any kind of risk. The poster 'assumed' it was a given the fight would sell. Still 60K. WOW! If it hadn't sold Wald's other revenue would have gone to paying for the event.

But you answered my other question too. In a situation like this the court wants to see you attempt to 'mitigate' your losses. Since the fight went on there really isn't much to pursue except the difference in revenue between HBO and ESPN and that would be iffy since HBO money was contingent on Haye showing up.

And as coming up with a bogus doctor's excuse? Well, I'm sure the Wald camp would have the right to independent verification and no doctor in his right mind would falsify a document that could be used in a multi million dollar law suit. Well, not one you would want in court anyhow.

 

I was going to say something like this but you beat me to it. :thumbsup

 

:good

 

Yes, Haye should earn his shot. Haye had his chance, but he backed out.

 

Frozen out? He could always fight top contenders and earn his shot. I wonder if he ever thought about that route?:think

 

There is a double standard in favor of Haye.

Klitschko’s _style_ could be impregnable, according to Emanuel Steward, who says, “For the first time I’ve ever had a heavyweight that I could always see weaknesses when I would train a guy to beat if I was ever in the other corner. Wladimir is gonna be the one I don’t think I could train no man to beat the way he is. I’m serious. I’ve never had a fighter – I went from Holyfield and all the guys I’ve worked with, never, Lennox – (Wladimir) is a very, very committed, very difficult to beat fighter. Because he won’t let you fight him. He makes you fight what he wants you to fight. But the biggest thing which I think people are not looking at is his speed for a big man. Tremendous speed.”
