Warren: "Haye pulled out due to money"

I HAVE NEVER SAID HE SHOULD FIGHT FOR FREE! What I said was that he would not turn down the biggest fight of his life against the top heavyweight in the world because he was not getting paid enough if he thought he was going to win!

As I said, some news outlets reported runours of the injury being to Hayes hand. If you read the articles, none of them quoted anyone from the Haye camp. All any of them said is that it had been reported that it was because of his hand without saying where they got that information from. As soon as Haye or Booth spoke to the media they said it was his back.

As far as I know, he wasn't going to get paid at all if he never got paid from Setanta so loosing that money means fighting for free, whether you used that word or not that's what he could have ended up doing.

 

Stop using logic and facts.
You'll only confuse them

 

Haye pulled out quicker than a gay man from a woman. This guy is pure garbage and deserves no credit, respect, or attention.

 

Not only that, what's wrong with fighting for free? Wlad gave away his winnings from the Ibragimov fight.

 

That's because Wlad's a decent guy and he felt guilty. If ever there was a fight that should have been called off to save the crowd from further punishment, that was it.

 

They are all professional boxers. They box for money, it is what they do for a living. If Wlad has made enough from boxing that he can afford to give away his purse from a fight then good luck to him and if it was to a worthy cause he deserves respect for it - but he did not get in the position to do that by fighting for free.

FFS would you expect coca-cola to make coke then give it away for free. If you went into a jewellers shop and said I'll just take this Rolex watch for free no-one at the store or Rolex needs paid you would get sent to jail. etc.

Some of this "Haye should fight for free" nonsense would be almost understandable if it came from his fans or people who at least thought he would win but most of the people saying it were convinced he was getting KTFO'd and couldn't wait for it to happen. Haye should get the **** knocked out him and consider it a privelige better than money seems to be what most of them are saying.
