The truth about Hepatitis B -- Haye not fighting Chagaev is a disgrace

It won't be Haye's choice. It's up to the British Boxing Board of Control to decide whether Chagaev will get licensed or not.

 

Has the British Boxing Board of Control stated that Chagaev is forbidden to fight in UK? I´ve read that Booth thinks that this is the case, but is it official?

 

Nope, no decision has being made yet. They have however asked Chagaev's promoters to provide medical reports.

 

It's nothing to do with Haye. If the guy can't fight in Britain, then it's out of Haye's hands.

Aside from that, if he isn't fit to fight, I can understand boxers not wanting to share the ring with him.

 

Question - would YOU fight Chagaev?

If your answer is anything other than NO you are lying. End of story.

I can't stand Haye, but I'm all for him not facing Chagaev, whether it's under orders from the board or bitching out.

It's not as simple as ''just fight in Germany then'', the British board will fine him and possibly ban him if he fights Chagaev elsewhere having been refused permission to do so here.

 

He is fit to fight though, this was well documented when the Valuev fight had to be cancelled

How so? Wlad fought him, and he's a doctor

 

Wasn't the whole point of Haye skipping out on the July date for Wlad supposed to be that he HAD to face Chagaev as a mandatory before then.

I tried to explain a while ago to deluded Haye fans that that was a bull**** excuse since it would be easy for Haye to get out of a mando against a guy that has Hep B.

Lo and behold, it is so.

So why isn't Haye fighting Wlad again?

 

Can you explain to us why? :huh

 

Wlad holds a PhD, he's not a doctor in the medical sense, to my knowledge anyway.

Chagaev clearly isn't fit to fight...... bearing in mind his performance against Wlad, struggling like hell with Travis Walker and such..... shows all the signs of being severely faded.

A fight with Haye is the last thing he needs - he'd be badly banged up and stopped, probably by the ringside doctor in the mid rounds.

I can't believe anyone actually wants to see this fight, it's almost as bad as Haye vs Holyfield.

 

I wonder why Klitschko fought him. He has much more to lose then Haye.

 

If Haye doesn't fight Chagaev he'll be stripped. If it goes to a purse bid and Universum wins, Haye will have to go to Germany Hep B or not, and that's where Wlad and Chagaev unified for the lineal championship after David bitched out, so this fight can be safely made, everything else in an excuse.

Haye's backup plan is Jean-Marc Mormeck and that pretty much speaks for itself. Why not go back to cruiserweight?

 

**** the UK board Haye should not be allowed to hide in the UK from a mandatory

Maybe bring it to the US that would be big

Hes pulling an Andre Ward

Plus should he be stripped? rules state fight mandatory or be stripped, not only able to fight in UK, WBA can make it happen some where else

 

If there's a way to avoid Chagaev I'm all for it you want to know why? Because Chagaev is shotter than shot. That being said I would vote for avoiding Chagaev if and only if Haye instead gets a better opponent lined up as a replacement -- there are a number of potential contenders, we don't know if they're medically fit to fight through for a bout in May/June. Boytsov, Adamek or Povetkin would certainly qualify. A 38 year old bum version of Mormeck does not.

 

I think if the fight can't get sanctioned then haye can't get blamed.

Doesn't give him a free pass from fighting mormeck however. It is almost as bad as a defence vs chisora and absolute leagues behind a defence vs solis.
