    Great list. The Povetkin body smell one is a classic.

    If we're talking excuses then Ricky Hatton HAS to be mentioned.
    The King of excuses.

    The referee cost me the fight

    'Iv had the best training camp of my whole career'- gets blown away in 2 rounds then it's 'I had the worst training camp of my career'

    'He hasn't fought anyone' - to the WBC champ and Ring number 2 Junior Witter
    'He brings in no money' - then fights Juan Lazcano
    'He called me names so I'm not fighting him'
    'He doesnt deserve a payday'

    That's not the point. Haye is being irrational like his excuse with his toe. There is no threat in fighting in Kiev, and Haye should understand that. Haye doesn't get to offer anything because he needs the fight and Vitali doesn't.

    Using an irrational basis to stop a fight from happening is called a bad excuse, and Haye is doing so. He has no leverage on the fight because he's only won 1 fight in the past 2 years. End of story.

    Povetkin's smelling excuse might be worse than the toe :rofl. I remember reading that and I totally forgot about it.

    No threat , just dont go out at night and stay in groups of 10 or more.

    Every Brit that went to the Euro Champs or the Champions league said that Kiev is a fooking shite hole and full of racist nutters.

    It sounds as if Hatton was so afraid and nervous because of this guy that he couldn't come up with an excuse that didn't sound stupid as hell, whenever the name ¨Witter¨ was mentioned
