    british fans are the only mugs in the world who would actually pay to see haye fight a klitschko again (apart from the german fans obviously)

    so of course sky and haye will milk the mugs again.

    meanwhile the mugs will then complain when haye pulls the kind of **** he pulled in the wlad fight (which i predicted).

    Yes, far to much money they will make not to. Even with Sky promoting the fight 10% as much as the last fight I still think it would bring in 500'000 buys which would totally justify SBO showing it. Haye and the Klitschko's must already know SBO will show the fight, no way would Haye be offered the fight otherwise.

    Haye has enough money already. He should give the fight to the BBC for free.

    What would Audley do?

    It'll go to whatever channel provides the opportunity to make the most money for Haye and K2. If Sky won't put it on PPV, Primetime will and it'll be on there.

    They better bloody not.


    No way this fight is bigger than Khan vs Peterson or Froch vs Ward
     
  9. Yes it is.

    No-one really cares about Khan vs Peterson and Froch's lack of fame in this country is beyond a joke.

    Haye vs Vitali is the biggest fight in boxing other than Mayweather vs Pacquaio that can be made. It is a HUGE fight.

    well said someone talking sense at last,

    Haye will not go in and fight it out, he has no balls or heart,

    he just will run off laughing at the mugs who paid to watch it,

    i would never pay for him again, i hope the fight does not come off

    Would have to go along with that. Not to mention Vitali has been known over here for about decade due to the Hide, Lewis and Williams fights not to mention his brothers recent fight.

    But Sky won't pay an absolute bombload for it to go on regular Sky Sports.

    Of course, Sky could offer more to put it on regular Sky than Primetime would for PPV-but the recent fights Primetime have televised show a reluctance from them to do so. Haye v Vitali could buck the trend though.

    Either way, I think my original point stands. Haye is greedy, and the Klitschkos are only taking this fight because of the UK TV money it will generate so they will go with whoever offers the potential to make the most money.

    Reality is it will be on SKY for FREE, because they will pay him more than he would earn going PPV on Primetime or Boxnation. FACT.

    The clause will simply be, beat Vitali and Wlad rematch will be on PPV.

    Khan earned 4-5 times more than Sky offered him when he went to Primetime for McCloskey though.

    Why would Vitali be arsed with fighting Haye then? He's not worth the hassle without SBO.
