    Klitshcko's on BBC1, charming as ever. Wladimir admits that Vitali is the better fighter and would beat him in a fight.

    Looks like they are trying to hype up another Haye fight.

    Would not be at all surprised to see another Haye fight. They probably figure it brings more $$$$$ than any other fight

    Do we have any indication of what the UK PPV numbers were for Wlad - Haye?

    Early indications suggest the numbers are higher than your hormonal fanboy mind can deal with... :nut

    Another Haye fight seems almost inevitable, the money they must have made in just one fights easily eclipses what they have made in other fights. Question is will the fans fall for Haye's hyperbole again, is their really the demand after the timid first fight?

    I for one will not pay again to see Haye/Wlad, though I would want to see Haye/Vitali, Vitali is slow enough for Haye to land clean punches and Vitali is active and aggressive enough to punish Haye and get the KO.

    Absolutely and I reckon Vit would have no qualms about fighting in the UK. Would be an enormous event.

    ive said before and ill say it again...if wlad fights haye again without him earning it ill be very very disapointed...if vitalt wants to give the tit another payday just because he has a huge mouth then thats up to him but id still be disapointed in it..the man has to fight at least 2 top heavys..its an injustice that the man was beatin so comprehensivly that hes going to get another carrer high payday just a complete injustice...

    I think a rematch with Wlad would make more sense in a money perspective than against Vitali. Haye could argue about his injury, it being a close fight, dodgy judges blah blah blah and maintain some interest in the fight. With Vitali it would be him starting all over again and pundits would give Haye even less chance of winning.

    Unfortunately its all about making money and Haye could still create sufficient interest to generate enough money for Wlad to put a smile on his face. Infact, much more than any of the other heavies around. Thats why the Klitchkos are still interested.....

    A rematch maybe, an immediate rematch? Definately not.

    What injustice? Wlad rules the HWs and he's beaten all the credible opponents out there. There is no one else to really fight and money should be the main reason for his next fights. Haye makes the most sense so why fight Chisora or Fury and make peanuts in comparison?

    I agree in an ideal situation Haye would have to earn another shot at a Klitschko but the reality is there isn't anyone else out there that poses a bigger threat(though that threat is almost non existent) or such a big payday. They can fight a worse opponent for less money or take another big payday for only slightly more risk.

    Fact is while the Klitschko's dominate heavyweight boxing when it comes to revenue Haye is king hence why they would both be willing to fight him. Money talks and either Klitschko would be happy for another easy payday.

    because wlad hasnt already beatin chisora or fury comprehensivly thats why..money isnt his main focus now its his legacy..why fight some1 you just made look like an amature again straight away without him earning it..its an injustice to the rest of the heavys out there..haye hasnt fought a proper heavy yet he earned a shot at wlad gets his ass handed to him so he deserves another go just because it makes more money??no sorry im not for it ill be disgusted if it happens..if he earns it by beating some top guys then ****ing great but a rematch straight away like i said is an injustice
