Just a few days ago Haye publically said talks with Wlad were still ongoing and that the Harrison fight was a joke.
Today we find out from Steward Wlad goes into purse bids for Povetkin tomorrow..........
What is it with David Haye is he incapable of telling the truth? Can anyone really place more truth in Hayes' statement over Stewards'?
And Steve Bunce his 'defender'? What a sell out. I used to love that guy but I've lost so much respect for him now - he needs to man up and publically say what's what instead of placating Haye,
Just because Wlad signed to fight Povetkin, that means Haye lied about negotiations?
how does that make any sense?/QUOTE]
Haye is saving face. They stopped talks weeks ago so wlad went back to Povetkin per the IBF demand.
Then as soon as Wlad Povetkin is next, haye pops up saying 'We are still in talks".. like I said..to whom.. Vitali? Teah right... talks with Vitali after he made it public he is in talks with Valuev.
Haye is trying to save face and make it look like he is trying to fight the bro's when in reality, they have already moved on
Do you honestly believe that Wlad offered 50/50? :lol1:
Yes I do.
Based on past history is Wlad an honest guy? Yes.
Is Dan rafael a guy with inside knowledge of the sport, more than you or I? Yes
Is David Haye a known bullshitter? Yes. Yes. And **** Yes!
Case closed.
What irks me is Wlad just won the purse bid vs Povtkin for $8 million!! Now if he's offered Haye 50/50 - as Dan Rafael stated - and a Haye / Wlad fight would earn more than a Wlad / Povetkin fight then WHY did Haye turn that down!!!!!!!!
To me you add Haye's silence and those math together and it's pretty hard to refute the fact Haye simply is running scared

I told you guys last week right after Haye said he didn't want Harrison, there was a front page article on Fight News saying the Wlad/Povetkin fight was going to happen and Haye still wanted to fight Harrison.
Correct.
Wlad/Povetkin was set early last week. before Haye came out and said "Im still in talks"... Talks with whom?

haye and mayweather are cut from the same cloth.
Vitali is still free although he is talking to Valuev there is no reason Booth can’t get on the phone and try and at least make that fight but i feel Booth is out of his depth.
I think this might happen, Haye wants to fight Vitali first and now that Wlad is fighting Povetkin it leaves the door open for Vitali, Haye said he wants to retire next year and i think he wants Wlad to be his retirement fight.

It will be interesting to see how it all unfolds.
My predictions:
- Haye will start calling out and trash talking Wladimir again once he signs to fight Povetkin. He'll continue to lie about the offers made.
- Haye will not agree to fight Vitali this year, but he may do so after Vitali turns 40 next year.
- Haye will not fight until November at the earliest, and it wouldn't surprise me if he waits until early 2011 for his next fight. He'll need to eventually fight Chagaev.
- Bunce will continue to nuthug Haye.
Spot on, I am betting the same thing will happen as well. In fact, I will go a step further and predict that he will try to duck Chagaev.
I hope he doesnt come out and start talking when Wlad and Vitali have both agree to fight someone else, I know he has some family problems at the moment but i dont want to hear "I was going to fight Wlad but he chose Povetkin or i was going to fight Vitali but he chose Valuev" right now i would wait and see what happens in the next few weeks.
He has no problems, at least none that are that pressing, because he is going to appear in charity soccer tournament in England next month. If he has time to do that, all those family problems are just excuses.
I'd have TONS of respect for Haye if he just came out (or his manager) and said listen, we all know this is an unwinnable fight, and at the moment David isn't interested in that type of risk. Man THAT would take some balls right there.
I just wish Haye would come out and say whether he does or doesnt want to fight Wladimir. He's been calling him out for 2 years and when Wladimir agrees to fight him he goes quiet and we dont hear anything from him. This guy used to say that the Klitschko's were avoiding him but now it's blatantly obvious that this is not the case and never was.
Man up Haye...
