    This isn't a ****ing popularity contest, I couldn't care less how many fans a fighter has, are they paying???

    Again back up your arguments with FACTS regarding the FINANCIAL split.

    The kind of things I'm only intertested in are:

    What did Wlad - Chambers do financially?
    What kind of viewing figures did it do around the world?
    How much did Wlad earn?

    If you can't supply financial figures then all you are presenting me with is your opinion, which without hard financial facts backing it up I'm not interested in.

    so I guess "I want to fight the best" and "I will clean out the division" all words from Haye only work if the price is right? Haye stands to make more in this fight then any fight he has ever had. even at 40%.... how about he back up his words:deal

    i do not see wlad agreeing to fight in the uk and so i think if the fight take place in germany just as someone else has said who i quoted in another thread and i am sorry to them i forget who it was, the fair way is.

    wlad gets german money
    haye gets uk money.
    wlad gets 70% of usa money haye 30%
    wlad gets 75% of gate money haye 25%

    russian money wlad gets it all
    rest of the world tv money rights which is a smaller pot should go 50 /50.

    haye is self promoted so his cut does not have to be devided up like most fighters with people creaming off the top and as has been said his uk PPV money will be very good money for the fight.

    i can see him getting about £15 million uk money alone for the fight if he had the total pot of uk money for a primetime uk fight which would be 10pm german time.

    Oh come on now Chef, fighters trying to make a name for themselves and calling out the top dogs in the division has been going on in boxing from day one.

    It was shameless self promotion, but I'm still convinced had Setanta not gone under Haye would have fought.

    Remember Mayweather getting in Mosleys face what, 8-10 years ago, and here we are YEARS later and only now the fights being made.

    Wlad - Haye might take a couple of years yet, I'm cool with that.

    Tell me something, watching Haye vs Valuev/Ruiz, you honestly think he's a solid HW already? Because I don't.

    If Haye earns £15 million I have no argument.

    i base this figure on 1 million uk buys which is feasible as long as the fight takes place around 10 pm german time, which IMO it would as haye gets loads of uk terrestial tv exposure and sky tv exposure , more than virtually any fighter in the last 10 years because of the fact he is a tv natual and relaxed and funny in interviews compared to most boxers who are replicas of card board cut outs when interviewd.

    it gives haye cross over appeal and wider exposure than most uk boxers.

    Haye just needs to take the damn fight and shut up with making excuses.

    He's been calling out Wladimir for 2 years and he's becoming an embarrassment to British boxing.

    50-50, 60-40, who gives a **** ?
    Why should we care how they divide up the cash ?

    **** 'em. We're all sitting here willing to pay to watch them fight - AND IT COULD WELL END UP BEING A STINKER, but we are still willing to pay - and Haye's dragging his ****ing feet like a ***** after all his bull**** for the last two years.

    Haye can **** OFF if he thinks I'm impressed with Barrett, Valuev and Ruiz fights. Or any other similar ventures he's planning.

    As he said to Wladimir, "you need to fight the ****ing man !" ...... No, Dave, YOU need to fight the ****ing man.

    Cardboard cut-outs and T-shirts and all that **** doesn't impress me. He's using old Cassius Clay or Archie Moore style promotional tactics but there's a big difference.
    Clay ACTUALLY FOUGHT Sonny Liston. (and at the earliest opportunity)
    Moore ACTUALLY FOUGHT Rocky Marciano.

    Haye's just done all the ballyhoo and baiting but when it comes down to it he bitches out of the actual fight.
    What an embarrassment !

    OK, so do you think that Wlad would agree to a 50/50 purse split, 50/50 US PPV, Haye takes the UK PPV and Wlad takes everything else? If Wlad is such a draw around Europe he should be very happy with that.

    Mr Sandwich Man, why didn't you answer my question regarding Wlad reportedly demanding an 80-20 split? Is that what he is really after?...sounds like a duck opportunity on the Sisters part

    If Haye is so confident that he can beat Wlad then he should just take 40% for this fight as the exposure that this fight would get him all over the world would add millions on to every future fight he has, so in the end excepting 40% will make him alot more money long term than holding out for 50% and the fight falling through.
