WBA heavyweight champion David Haye is still relaxing and spending time with his family. His manager, Adam Booth, is working on his next fight. One of the biggest bouts in the sport is a fight between Haye and one of the Klitschko brothers. In 2009, Haye agreed to fight WBO/IBO/IBF champion Wladimir Klitschko, but a few weeks before the fight he withdrew with a back injury. A few months later he agreed to face older brother Vitali Klitschko, the WBC champion. Haye withdrew one again, and signed a deal to fight Nikolai Valuev for the WBA title, which the British fighter captured by decision.

Over the last few months, the Klitschko brothers have crucified Haye in the press and painted a picture of a fighter running scared. Haye claims the Klitschko brothers are manipulating the media who are not aware of the negotiating tactics of the two brothers.

"They try to manipulate the media to follow them and make people believe that they're doing the right thing. But then when you're behind closed doors, and if you're in these meetings with them and you see these crazy clauses that they come up with, then you'll say, 'Okay, it's over.' They're always trying to gain an advantage and to stack the financial situation in their favor. I couldn't stand for that," Haye said. 

"I've lost respect for both of them in that sense. That's obviously the way that they've done business in the past, and they'll keep doing it and fighting the kind of guys that they're fighting as long as they can get away with it."

After falling short in the past, Haye believes he finally secured the high hand. In the last few years, he was chasing the Klitschkos, but now the Klitschkos are chasing after him. Haye appears confident of beating both, and he anticipates that both brothers will continue their pursuit because of the money involved.

"I would knock them out. I know what it takes to beat them. If they want their highest payday, they've got to come to me. They're making nothing compared to what they can make by fighting me. They know that, and they don't know how to handle it. They short circuit. I know that it bothers them," Haye said.
