    haye was offered 400 000 dollars plus a double rematch clause build in, even if Haye beats them both he only gets 400 000 a fight I dont think I have ever heard of such a slave contract EVER !!!


    Haye annouced it , also K2 make the opponents contract confidental for very good reason

    after his performance with kevin johnson, i think the better question would be who DEOSN'T wanna fight him?? the guy looks ripe for the taking. and solis is dying to fight him, so that pretty much answers your question.

    its not the klitschkos fault really, they just have little to no fanbase so they would probably anticipate generating little revenue.:deal

    Vitali's formidible, to be sure. But he's not unbeatable. Old Vit is getting up there too, he's no spring chicken.
    Kevin Johnson hit him with little more than a few dirty looks and Klitchko's face was busting up. He still has scar tissue from the valleys that Lennox Lewis dug out of his face, not to mention all the creaky knees and back , just waiting to snap again. All the sparring , running and other stuff you do to condition for a fight isn't exactly friendly to a guy coming to the end of his athletic prime.
    This might be the best time to take a chance with Vitali now thats he's on top, and just bound to have age and injuries, and scar tissues catch up with him.
    It's also fair to say that if he can mantain the form he showed against Arreola, I can't think of any heavyweight , Haye or Solis included , that won't have hells own time beating Vitali.

    Haye has a mandatory. He backed out before for good reason. He got a pathetic contract for the fight with Wlad and I expect very much the same for the talked-about fight with Vitali. Beating Valuev made him far more marketable, and now he can get the contract he finally deserves from a financial perspective.

    He could walk into any athlete night spot in any major US city and have a few dozen guys that would laugh in his face, call him a ****, and make him stfu and leave if he dared say or act like he was that kind of dude. But he's not. He would know better then to act out even if some of his idiot fans are so clueless and want to ride his nuts.:shock::happy:bbb:deal

    id say Valuev wants him.
    david haye wants him.(he would have a better chance beating his brother)one punch could cripple waldo ala lame brewster.
    eddie chambers wants him.
    james toney wants the klitchko sisters lol.

    the klits are very very very popular in germany, the sold over 30,000 tickets for the haye fight, all sold out within couple of days.

    haye was being offered crap, valeuv being offered 2 mill, why didnt vitali offer that kind of offer to haye.

    Vitali should forget about Valuev,
    who is pricing himself out.

    And make a fight with Adamek.
