DAVID HAYE'S lackluster show in defending his WBA title against Wladimir Klitschko turned him from media darling to major letdown.

Famous German coach Ulli Wegner was very disappointed with David Haye's performance in the recent fight with Wladimir Klitschko, who won an easy twelve round decision last Saturday in Hamburg. Wegner told Sportal that Haye lacked the necessary courage to win the fight and he also lacked a proper strategy to defeat the much bigger Klitschko. He even compared the bout to Arthur Abraham's recent one-sided loss to Andre Ward. Wegner trains Abraham.

Ricky Hatton still firmly believes that David Haye can unify the heavyweight division and has called on the former WBA world champion to postpone his retirement.

Emanuel Steward, the trainer of WBO/IBO/WBA/IBF heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, discussed the flaws and strengths of David Haye, who Wladimir easily decisioned over twelve rounds last Saturday in Hamburg, Germany. According to Steward, Haye's balance is the British boxer's biggest weakness. After reviewing tapes, Steward noticed that Haye is always off-balance when he throws punches - especially his big right hand.

In a recent interview with The Sun, British boxing legend Nigel Benn has advised countryman David Haye to continue his career beyond a planned retirement in October. Benn watched Haye's recent decision loss to Wladimir Klitschko, and felt the Hayemaker used the wrong strategy. Like many others, Benn observed Haye using the same strategy that he utilized to beat Nikolai Valuev, but Klitschko is faster and a much better boxer.

Lamon Brewster, the last man to defeat IBF/WBO/WBA/IBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko, discussed Wladimir's decision win over David Haye from last Saturday in Germany. Brewster stopped Klitschko within five rounds in 2004, which Wladimir later avenged with a six round TKO win in 2007. He saw the fight as a calculated chess match.

Speaking with The Guardian, former heavyweight champion David Haye didn't sound too interested in a possible fight with WBC champion Vitali Klitschko, who defends his title against Tomasz Adamek on September 10 in Poland. Last Saturday in Hamburg, Haye lost a twelve round decision in his unification with Wladimir Klitschko. The British boxer plans to retire on October 13th - unless Wladimir grants him a rematch opportunity. Wladimir, the WBA/IBO/WBO/IBF champion, has no interest in a rematch, but older brother Vitali is more than happy to fight Haye.

The WBO/WBA/IBO/IBF heavyweight champion, Wladimir Klitschko, said he warned British rival David Haye to avoid any discussion regarding his toe injury - because of the expected backlash from the fans and the boxing media. Klitschko won a twelve round decision over Haye in Hamburg last Saturday, and afterwards Haye took off his shoe to display a broken toe on his right foot. He said the toe injury affected his ability to throw combinations and right hand power shots.

Bernd Boente, manager of WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko, said his fighter is interested in finishing the job that his younger brother started last Saturday in Hamburg, Germany. Wladimir Klitschko, the WBO/IBO/WBA/IBF heavyweight champion, won a twelve round decision over Haye.

Before the fight took place, promoter Ahmet Öner was pleading with David Haye to take Wladimir Klitschko's head off. Instead, Klitschko won a lackluster twelve round decision over Haye last Saturday in Hamburg, Germany to unify the WBA/WBO/IBO/IBF titles.
