To add to the above post. The area that Haye has over Wlad is that he is charismatic and marketable. Haye facing either Holyfield (not happening I think he will fight Nielson) or B-Hop is the type of fight that would get attention and Haye charsima could be seen by a broader audience.
apparently he is so marketable he doesnt even have to fight haye no longer has charisma....he has a fat mouth that contradicts itself every day :nono
i wouldnt mind seeing him fight tua and after tua's last performance. haye and his team would be confident of a win . but it would be risky fight against a decent name
Adamek, Povetkin, Chagaev. There's interesting fights out there other than the Klitschko's. He really needs to step up and fight one of the Klitschko's within the next year though. And get more active. Fighting once or twice a year isn't enough. He hyped it alll up, he really should have faced one by now. A fight with Audley would have been the most bull**** fight for a while.
Is Haye really interested in fighting top HWs? I seriously have my doubts at this point. I think he'll continue to feed on the near-retirement crowd and the circus attractions like Sugar Valuev. I don't even see Haye stepping up to fight a Chagaev or Povetkin, let alone the Klitschkos.
Realisticaly, I'd like to see him face Chagaev or Adamek since he is in no hurry to face a Klitschko. But I think he is looking to milk his belt for a while and needs a name opponent for his next fight. I've thought for a while now that we might see Haye take on Holyfield or Rahman and I still think one of them might be his next opponent.
You don't have charima and lose it either you have "it" (see David Haye) or you don't (see both K2 brothers)............him having a fat mouth that contradicts itself every day could be a selling point for a fight........As villian David Haye is still the most marketable Heavyweight right now.
Well, sometime that name recognition gag works and sometimes it doesn't. Ibragamov certainly didn't become a household name when he fought Holyfield for his first title defense.
