I just get the feeling Haye wants to KO Wlad obviously But felt he werent ready in his preparation or experience He should have had a few more heavy fights first Whats he done since a easy win over Enzo in March 2008 Have a fight with Monte Barret - that is all He has been inactive Maybe this was a jump too soon But if so - why did he drag it through all the press conferences, etc Make your bed lie in it If he gets KO;d thats just the way it goes
Joe Calzaghe nearly pulled out of the Lacy fight with a hand injury Until they told him Look Joe for ****s sake you cant pull out of this one like one of your other routine fights Thats too much at stake If your hand is 80% - too bad - just put up with it And Joe went through with the fight These big fights - any niggle or little injury can cause worry How come this injury has happened to Haye so near the fight Surely all his main body of work would have been done by now Maybe he can fight - just over cautious and worried because of whats on the line
this is a Golden oppurunity for Haye Wlad dont have to fight him If he pulls out now Wlad is under no obligation to go through this with Haye all again
Thats true and it's a winner takes all gamble. Fail and fall by the wayside, get derided by all and sundry or win and become the HW divisions biggest star since Lennox Lewis, even without achieving what he did. Almost anything approaching excitement eclipses Wlad's standing in the sport.
I think IF this a fake injury (and theres no evidence to say it is) I think its more likely to do with Hayes concern about Setantas ability to pay him his purse rather than being a bottle job.
It has to be a genuine injury. These things happen. I feel sorry for the fans who might not get a refund on travel.
they have to get a doc in to verify the injury for the fight to be rescheduled, so i guess we'll find out soon enough what the extent of the injury is
One of Wlad's drones in the GF posted this; What we were told was: 1st....would not state what the injury was 2nd... was told one of his hands 3rd.....RTL(German TV) was told one of his knees or feet 4th...(from Booth) Back injury thats all I know about the injury
