    Then again Waldo also has paper titles which for real belongs to Lennox Lewis and Vitali Klitchko.

    Seriously ... what is Ruiz likely to do if he beat Haye?

    Haye is favoured in that fight but he's no certainty to win it.

    Why cant he go straight for Klitschkos, he's ranked by WBC and IBF. His fans suggest he is such a fearless warrior he will surely want the biggest fights as soon as possible.

    He is also hugely popular so surely the Klitschkos will be very keen to make this fight. The Haye fight is'nt going to happen for 18 months at least so who will he fight IF he beats Arreola.

    He should just take his Klitschko paycheck/beating as soon as possible.

    He is not running his mouth he is doing his job because a Klitschko fight will happen eventually and he is building it up as much as possible for future earnings.

    He is also regularly asked questions about Klitschkos what do you think he should say

    "They are both much better than me and when I fight them I will lose in 3 rounds so please dont waste your money on the PPV"

    You need to grow up and realise boxing is an entertainment as well as a sport. You should not be so sensitive when someone suggests your favourite fighters are beatable.

    I think it may be a good time to get him, hes no spring chicken any more and has definitely slowed up a bit, plus i think he throws a lot more arm punches now

    It's only a matter of time before Haye gets KOd . I think the hype he gets here is incredible. No way Haye... a newcommer from Cruiserweight deserved ANYTHING but a "poor" contract.

    If I had been Haye and if I genuinely believed I could beat the Vitali, I would have taken ANYTHING. Just imagine the popularity Haye would have got. After that, money would have rolled in no problem.

    Truth is, Haye has no chance against Vitali. You can look at Johnson all you want, but Haye is smaller, has rubbish defense and really, Haye is taylor made for Vitali's long range jab. Even against an ageing past his peak Vitali, you'd still need a big, technically sound boxer cappable of bringing the fight to Vitali. Haye is not such a fighter. He'll get jabbed and countered to either a decision or to a late stoppage. Unlike against Wlad, the only way Haye could win this is by injury. That's it.

    Arreola would wipe Valuev's arse 24/7. Arreola has actually very good handspeed and power thus would stand a good chance against the shocking defensively Haye. Not so much against the solid skilled and chinned Adamek, but that would certainly be an even contest.

    As for Valuev, of course he won't get too big of a share. He's a washed up boxer looking for a pay day. He'd add nothing to Vit's resume. The only reason for this fight is because it would defo fill a tens of thousands sit stadia in Germany.

    Someone will always be willing to fight for the belt for less money.

    Maybe even a real contender who earned it... :lol:

    So the division is full of fatsos but Toney is an exception? Sorry, but your boy Toney is overrated and the Klits would make quick work of him in any era.

    I don't think it's Adamek's fans that "suggest" he's such a fearless warrior but rather his actions in and out of the ring. The whole point is that he needs another fight or so to prepare so to avoid taking a beating.

    Grow up? LOL, who the **** are you?

    Maybe Haye should do his talking in the ring instead of asking for a fight and then walking away from it.

    Of course, I will!

    Mind you, Im not a former unified cruiserweight champion and current heavyweight champion like Haye or a recent former heavyweight champion like Valuev.

    But I suppose if Vitali is happy to just beat up the dregs then he'll be ok.
    I hope you enjoy his next few farcical outings.:-(

    Apologies if I offended with the grow up thing I only meant people should look beyond the obvious when analysing any fighters comments.

    Do you think after saying he wanted to fight Vitali and getting offered around 750K, he should then take this fight instead of getting 4m for Valuev. He never signed a contract
    to fight Vitali. He will now get to fight Vitali down the line and the pay will be much higher. BTW I'm not one of these guys who think the WBA strap gives him parity with Klitschkos but it will close the gap at negotiations.

    As for the Wlad fight, I appreciate you dont like Haye but would you expect him to fight for $0 because that would have been the situation on june 20th. There are some fighters I cant stand but I would'nt expect them to risk their health for $0.

    He's doing whats best for his career

    you don't have to like what he's doing in fact you can outright hate it. But he's just doing what he thinks is best for him. If you don't respect that I guess that's a price David Haye is just going to have to pay.

    valuev makes lesser then one million each fight, and that was back when he was champion. so he can't make more money in germany, and for the toney nuthugger, wlad is the champ, he was first a paper champ, but because of his defenses and fights for the last 5 years he earned the status of the champion. it' s a little bit wirred with vitali because he is the champion too, thats the problem with the k bros, that we have two champions.
    but i think that wlad would beat vitali silly right now.
    so wlad is the champion

    No worries. I respect any boxer but Haye made a fool of himself acting like a ***** and getting in Wlad's face. It's best to do the talking in the ring.
