    Does the Valuev vs. Haye fight have a rematch clause? This isn't a fight that needs to happen twice (or even once for that matter).

    Also, assuming there is no rematch clause, do you think Valuev keeping the WBA title or losing it would increase the chances of him getting a fight with a Klitschko?

    Why shouldn't it happen once? Assuming that Haye's word that he will go after the Klitschko's after is true, whats the problem?

    Not necessarily a rematch clause that directly enforces a remach against Valuev, but a clause that offers King/Sauerland promotional options on the next couple WBA HW fights should Haye win. Haye would then co-promote those fights with Sauerland. Pretty simple business.

    Haye gets a voluntary shot at a belt (he's no mandatory in any organization) and the promoters get options.

    IMO, if Haye takes the belt from Valuev he will have to face Ruiz (according to the WBA), and then he will face 2-3 guys from the King/Sauerland stables as he works through the options. Austin, Brewster, Holyfield, Meehan etc.

    A Klitschko fighting for the WBA belt is pretty much impossible as long as Don King has his claws on it, as both brothers own a belt so they will never become mandatory challengers for the WBA strap.

    I believe that if Haye beat Valuev he would then have to fight Valuevs brother. However, since Valuev doesn't have a brother, a suitable substitute needs to found. According to the contract a woolly mammoth, American Mastodon or saber tooth tiger may substitute, unfortunately they are all currently extinct. So, a Siberian Brown bear will be used as an alternate. However, I highly doubt that it will come to this since Haye has already started to trash talk Mr. Valuev, more than guaranteeing that the post fight interview will be filled with gasps as the doctors try in vain to remove Mr. Haye's head from his own a$$.

    Why all the Haye fans are insisting that Haye should be AWARDED the title without even fighting for it?

    First he beat all the top contenders (e.g. Toney, Rahman) by saying they are worthless.
    Next he unified WBO/IBF/WBC belts by the fear of the T-shirt and fairness of negotiations.
    Now I guess he should be undisputed champion by shaving excessive heir on Valuev?

    In Haye's mind, this is his career: beats Valuev very comfortably, KOs Ruiz, outpoints Vitali, destroys Wlad, stops solis. Retires.
