    Quite restrained by Warrens standards.

    Interestingly, Haye's sparring partner David Price was quoted as saying: "I'll be honest, I came home on Monday, but the last time I saw David he was in great shape, he was fine, and he was raring to go.!!

    ****!! I didn't know David's purse was coming just from Setanta....


    Thanks Fat joe

    If it's true about Haye asking for money up front I can't fault him, I would do exactly the same.

    Its no secret

    Setanta were paying Haye his purse

    Wladmiir was getting all the money from German and US TV and all the rights

    If Wlad had not insisted on having everything his own way (finicially) this fight might still go ahead

    Of all the other TV money coming in Wlad was getting the 100% share of it

    Haye got nothing

    Haye agreed because Setanta were still going to cough up his biggest ever purse

    And if he did beat Wlad - he would be in line for a much better deal in a rematch

    That passed me by Flint so in that case the writings on the wall about David pulling out really.....

    I mean who did Wlad think was going to pay Haye if Setanta folds?

    In that BBC interview someone posted

    Haye denied it was anything to do with Setanta

    And just claimed his back suddenly went

    But people commented they thought he was bullshitting

    Everyone is a while it might. 99% of the it's allegedly Frank and his alleged gingers pubes talking shite.

    Also look at the paper he writes for. Most British boxing fans will be clued up anyway before Fwanks alleged articles and most simply ignore them. I never read a Fwank article even when the links are posted here. Everyone know what he's going to say, he'd save any big relevant "news" for a televised press conference.

    His columns usually follow the same format. The main piece slagging off a fighter he doesn't promote, a medium sized piece bragging up a fighter he does promote and 1 or 2 other very small clips on boxing in general/
