    a) Haye is unlicensed
    b) Haye is unranked

    a) Haye IS licensed, otherwise he wouldn't have just fought Chisora
    b) A sizeable bank transfer to Suliaman and a phone call from Vitali to Jose and Haye magically gets ranked.

    because Haye's a God and is above such petty things as getting in line for a title shot

    No, no, no, no, NO.

    Povetkin's scalp belongs to Wlad. He ducked him more than 3 times, talked BS about actually wanting the fight and then backed out again, and is wearing that worthless scrap of **** around his waste like it's made of win and gold.

    **** that, Sasha is Wlad's to KO.

    Would Hye/ Seth Mitchel on HBO be huge? I reckon so.

    As much as I'd like to see Haye fight some other contenders, he really doesn't need to. If he is able to secure the fight with Vitali, its a huge fight, I'm betting HBO would even pick that up. Not to mention, if he pulls off the win, it sets up another huge fight to be made between him and Wlad. The HW division could really use those two fights.

    I give Haye credit, he's the only credible opponent with the balls to call these guys out and mean it. He accepted his defeat to Wlad, but he hasn't shut down and ran off.

    I hope he does get the Vitali fight. I think every right minded fan would love to see it. And of course if he wins, the second Wlad-Haye fight that could follow would be a huge fight and great for boxing.

    Haye achieved almost all of his goals & retired at 31 with a very healthy bank balance

    He wont fight again unless its a major event he earns millions from, 99.99% of boxers would kill to be in his position

    At the end of the day money talks. Haye brings more excitement inside & outside of the ring (good or bad) than anyone else in the division. His fighting style (Wlad fight aside) and heavy hands coupled with his ability to market a fight makes him a huge cash cow, especially in a division filled with 'Robot-like' Eastern European fighters with boring styles and lack of personality. Haye v Vitali is the biggest, most profitable fight out there outside of Maywether v Pacquiao.

    Personally, I like the Klitchko's. I think they seem like good guys, both hold doctorates, and are good champions. They are good for boxing and rejuvinating it's reputation, but I get much more excited when a David Haye fight is announced than than Wlad or Vitali.

    Also, Haye fights on his terms. He doesnt need the money, he could retire off the back of his win against Chisora, but he knows that if he had any chance against a Kiltchko it's against Vitali, ASAP. Because of all this, he kinda gets a free pass to queue jump.

    Morally it might not always be fair but they are all businessmen at the end of the day.

    Honestly there is a money fight out there for him with Povetkin (which is possible being a former WBA champion and the current WBA Inter-Continental heavyweight champion) and would be an easy fight whilst waiting for a fight with a Klitschko

    He just doesnt seem fussed on boxing unless hes getting paid big

    The truth is Haye won't be recognized as one of the better heavys of his era unless he gets in the ring and proves it against live contenders. The Chisora win was a good start but it's unlikely to have alot of bearing on his legacy since Chisora has lost several fights and will probably lose several more.

    Adamek, Povetkin, and Arreola are the fights Haye should be chasing.

    Haye was quite cute taking on Chisora, he looked semi useful against two fighters that had injuries and was woeful against Fury. There wasn't much there to worry about except that Chisora might be sectioned under the metal health act before the bout. Nice business by Haye. I don't see Haye wanting either Klitschko. He's a hype merchant and bullshitter.

    I'm almost 100% sure David Haye has had sex with a close female relative of yours. It's the only way to explain your butthurtedness.
