    You know, if I were Wladimir, I'd turn around and tell Haye you can keep 90%, I don't care, lets just get it on. See where Haye goes after that.

    I don't see why they wouldn't. Both men have great amateur pedigree's and would have been tested rigorously in the past.

    Also, although it makes little financial sense to have Europe's two biggest draws fighting at a neutral venue. If the fight were to be held at for instance Las Vegas, then Wlad should get the bulk of the live gate. Although neither man is draw in the States, I feel as though Wlad's belts and his status as the number 1 heavyweight in the world should count for something.

    Champion of what? He's merely the WBA beltwarmer and honestly that belt already belongs to Wladimir since he beat Chagaev who beat Valuev.

    Win or lose Haye gets my respect for taking this fight.

    This is AWESOME. And I'm not even a Klitschko fan, or a heavyweight fan in general.

    You might want to wait until Haye actually goes through with it before you start giving him kudos.

    I liked the way Booth said they were more intrested in Vitali because he holds the WBC and historically the WBA/WBC are the original sanctationing bodies. :):):)

    That was very un-Wladdish, but i like it!

    Say about Wlad what you want, but he does everything to fight the best. Valuev refuses to get in the ring with him and made it no secret. He fought Chagaev, the top guy. He was signed to fight Povetkin, top contender, until Alexander got injured. Signed to fight Haye last year, until the latter got "injured".


    I just hope Haye doesn't have any more mandatory fights against Don King's WBA club of Recycled Heavyweights... i'm not sure about the situation of Wlad having to fight Povetkin, either, but Povetkin doesn't really look like he's jumping the opportunity.

    I've never seen Wlad look so focused...........or angry. Haye really pissed him off, and now he's gotta man up.

    I feel bad for the K brothers. They've absolutely cleaned out the division. Haye is the only person left for them to fight, and tbh he's not really much of a threat either. There are no exciting heavyweights left on the horizon, and for damn sure they're not going to fight each other. I don't know what else they can do to raise their profile in the US.
