That's why Boente even admitted that the majority of the money comes from Haye's TV deal yeah? That's why Wlad would not agree to the fight without getting 50% of Haye's TV money, but Haye was happy for each party to keep their own TV money, yeah?. Please explain that Use your ****ing brain man So on one hand you have Boente admitting this, on the other you have a ****** on a forum saying the
Again, for the last time: when Haye-Klitschko will triple any Haye vs. Bum PPV number in the UK, who do you think will be responsible for that? Haye magically tripling the amount out of nowhere, or Wladmir Klitschko the world HW Champion? What do you don't understand? Wlad is an international star, he'll make Haye rich if they fight. He's already a multi-millionare. What are Haye's PPV numbers and purses? That's how much he brings without Wlad and compare that to what Wlad makes without Haye. It laughs all over David's average purse. Together they'll make big PPV numbers not Haye alone. On the other hand Wlad sells super well without Haye in Germany or in the other 100 countries. Wlad generates more money. End of the story.
As has being said, Haye's done big PPV numbers fighting Ruiz, Harrison and Valuev ffs. And you keep saying Wlad sells his rights all over the world. So ****ing what? You think some Angolan TV network is going to come up with millions for a Wlad fight? Those rights peanuts. If Wlad is not fighting Haye the amount of money Sky pay for a Wlad fight is ****ing minuscule (that's if they pick it up). Why don't HBO or Showtime, the two biggest networks in world boxing, not show the HW champ? After all, you say he's this big superstar? Dyo know what, I've heard Don King boast that Joseph Agbeko fights are shown in more than 200 countries. That's right, two ****ing hundred. Is Agbeko a bigger draw than Wlad now? Haye-Klitschko will not triple the 700k buys that Haye-Valuev did. It might do a fair few more but I guarantee it will not triple it. Shaunster's presented you with facts and you've failed to acknowledge them. Tell me this, why is Wlad-Chisora in a 20,000 seater arena whilst Wlad-Haye is in a 60,000 stadium? The first time Wlad did a stadium fight was June '09 against Chagaev which was actually meant to be Haye-Wlad. Does that tell you something?
So you're saying Haye - Klitschko will do 2.4 million? The measure of a ppv draw is how he stands on his own, with Wlad fighting Chisora on PPV let's see how it does considering most will be buying for Chisora Wlad vs any fighter except Haye does next to nothing in the UK.
The problem as well is, if haye did sign, and chirora did pull the upset, haye has to fight a meaningless opponent because of a contract they signed. In an ideal world wlad knocks chisora out in 1 round then signs with haye for july 2nd. In reality though, wlad will sit out for a couple of month and haye will retire. Between them they have cost us this showdown.
Obviously Haye fighting the no.1 hw in the world will boost PPV sales but it's not going treble what Haye's done before (which is what you claimed, and 2.4m would be trebling Haye's best figures).
Another ******. Why didn't Wlad fight for honour instead of quibling over getting his hands on his TV money. No one would fight for free - you fan boys are pathetic
I'm not a fan of Wlad. I'm a fan of boxing. Haye should stop ducking or should quit the sport. Wlad is ready for July while Haye is looking for excuses. Nothing new.
Another teeny bopper parading as a boxing fan. Ever comment on something not involving a klitschko? If you're a Werder fan that would explain a lot though.
