I have had so many PM's asking what is happening.... Just got off the phone with wlad here at Vitali's training camp: YES!!! They are in talks for a fight in Sept/Oct. The lawyers are talking at this point. Thats all I know except to say.... Wlad has said he has no issue with even split. What is in the 50-50? I dont know. Take it for whats its worth. OK.... let the **** talking begin :good Cheers everyone
This would be real sweet. The sticking point might be where the venue will be. I'll be looking forward to this fight w/ great anticipation.:bbb
Nice to hear, finally. Amazing that we've heard NOTHING, not a single meaningful direct word from neither Haye nor Booth for weeks. Where are all those guys who were saying that "Haye will reply soon, he's just on a vacation now"? Still on vacation? LOL
50-50 split is good, haye got no excuses now, and he def isnt stupid enough to turn down a 5 mill dollar minimum (imo), pay day.
Yep. Vitali's lost a step, is maybe more vulnerable. Little brother will decimate Haye. Haye won't know what hit him. Wlad's defense is the best in the division and sorely underappreciated by fans, because it ain't fun to watch. But Haye won't be able to get past the jab and will get rocked repeatedly until he gets stopped in the later rounds. Then he'll retire .
haye should make wlad undergo blood testing. and i hope wlad isn't implementing the clause where if haye knocks wlad out, he's going to have to face vitali and then wlad again. make it winner take all, wlad. unless you're scared of course?
**** off with that **** BTW.. it was a rematch with Wlad first (common just like Valuev got) then a unification fight with Vitali that HATE WANTED in the contract:deal
Wlad accepting a 50/50 split shows just how smart he is. He's had a lot of fights and is 34 years old. He's still in his prime or maybe slightly passed his prime. He can't wait around, getting old, while Haye builds his profile and gets better.
