Is Vitali ducking Haye?

I doubt it will happen. Haye's a load of hot-air and when you get down to brass tacks I doubt he'd be willing to work his way back up the ladder. If he fights again it will only be for a big payday. Poet Agreed. At very most he'll fight Chisora if the money's right, otherwise it's Vitali or no one. Vitali wants the fight, he's said it enough times and so has Haye. They should make the fight.

If Chisora can get a shot at Vitali then Haye deserves another shot. Chisora has done absolutely nothing in the sport and lost two of the three fights coming into his shot at Vitali. At least Haye has legitimately beaten mediocre HW opponents like Valuev and Ruiz. Chisora hasn't even done that.

Vitali woul fight and he'd beat Haye

Would love to see Povetkin vs one of the Klitschko's. They dont seem to want to fight him and he is a belt holder. Over the years the Klitschko's have cherry picked fighters and never took risks. I think Valuev with his size and his ring presence would have been too much for them both. Oh dear, you appear to be a little clueless sir.

Your all correct in saying that Haye doesnt deserve a Vitali fight. But Vitali called Haye out after the Wlad fight claiming he will do what Wlad couldnt. Vitali's manager admitted at the press conference after the chisora fight that they offered Haye a contract! My opinion is that Vitali and his manager realised that if Chisora can cause them problems, then David Haye would be a dangerous choice of fight. Regardless of the Wlad fight he is the most explosive and fast heavyweight around. I believe Sky Sports wouldnt turn down the oppertunity to televise the fight as all of the moronic haters of Haye will still tune in and watch. Would love to see Povetkin vs one of the Klitschko's. They dont seem to want to fight him and he is a belt holder. Over the years the Klitschko's have cherry picked fighters and never took risks. I think Valuev with his size and his ring presence would have been too much for them both. The Klitschko's have failed to clean knockout an opponent for the last few fights and i think with better devised tactics Chisora or Haye could defeat them. Wlad is the superiour boxer and has better physical attributes but has got a dodgy chin when hit clean.

Haye screwed himself by talking for the talk for years, and when one of the biggest fights in boxing actually happened... he fizzled out and blamed his toe. I like Haye, I like watching the guy fight... but the effort he gave was downright crap. He doesn't deserve a Vitali fight. Let him get a few W's against maybe Arreola, Adamek, Chisora and then talk about fighting for the title again. This first response effectively ended the thread.

Umm.. Didn't vitali spend damn near the last 5 months trying to nail that haye fight? Get real. The dude wanted to stay retired, now he doesn't want to "lose his license" and wants to land a Vitali fight. And go figure, his marketing ploy is " I bet Vitali can't knock me out like he said he would! " he just wants to survive again for another big pay day, and prove that he couldn't get KO'd.

all this is true and yet the fact remains that he would make the most money by fighting haye. Its an unusual situation, Haye definately doesn't deserve it yet due to his mouth and the state of the divison he is still the biggest payday out there for Vitali. I think its clear vitali himself wants/wanted the fight but it is equally clear boente doesn't i dont see where the big money fight in a Haye fight comes from. Sky wont do PPV, and HBO isnt really interested after the Wlad fight. If Haye came back, beat a top 10 guy or 2 and looked good/great doing it, sky might put him on PPV again and HBO might be willing to put a couple of million up for it (especially if he goes to the states and fights a yank on regular HBO). Vitali doesnt need Haye to sell out 30000+ seats in Germany

Klitschko's dont need Haye, they make millions fighting guys like Mormeck and Chisora Haye on the other hand NEEDS the Klitschkos but who the fucck wants to see toe haye run around the ring again? Exactly, I mean thousands went to see Vitali vs Chisora, and over 35K are going to see Wladimir vs Mormeck ... They don't need Haye, especially not when he's asking for another huge contract ... he already got a 50-50 split and looked like garbage, he doesn't deserves anything over 30% of the purse.

Boente is a liar! He is the one who doesnt want it! Vitali aint scared of haye and if he decides to fight on he should have the last word on who he wants to fight next and not boente!
