DAVID HAYE is “ready and willing” to challenge WBC world heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko.
Haye bounced back from a short-lived retirement to claim a fifth-round victory over arch enemy Dereck Chisora in London.
Now the 31-year-old wants the elder of the two Klitschko brothers next, claiming: “He’s the only fighter who can make my return a prolonged one.”

Unlike Vitali, Haye didnt throw weak flurries and jabs all night, when Haye connected it was with bombs. Chisora was able to walk right up to Vitali and stand there, he couldnt do that with Haye.
Chisora was able to go 12 with Vitali because Vital was throwing punches which were doing no damage and the fact that he was very slow and that gave Chisora time to think.
Haye MADE Chisora look ordinary, Vitali made him look better than he was
Vitali got injured v Chisora and had to fight him with one arm. Keep that in mind before calling him old and slow.
Not really, Chisora fought in an impetuous manner, brash, even stupid. That Munich brawl was still boiling in his head ha ha......

Here we go, Haye made Chisora look ****. Chisora brought the best out in Haye.
Chisora brought the best out in Haye because he isn't a very good fighter. And as far as Haye is concerned he can move well and no doubt has power but his boxing skills leave a lot to be desired. And his power and speed may be enough against Chisora type fighters. But as we have already seen he could not pull it off against real elite fighters such as Wlad. Who can simply keep him at the end of their jab. And personally I believe that even Valuev was able to keep Haye at the end of his jab. And I still think Holyfield did better against Valuev. And unlike many fans I don't believe, and I was always a fan of his, that Evander even did enough to beat the Beast, much less Haye pulling it off. But then again I may be being to judgmental because after all Haye did have his phoney broken hand to contend with.

Who isn't in the game for a payday?
True, but in the Haye's case, he earned his first Klitschko shot with his big mouth, disappointed terribly when he got his shot, and now looks for a second shot he didn't half earn. That's fraudulent as another poster pointed out. Haye's a fraud, but a good fraud. Most of all, he's good at fooling his own fans, really really hard to believe he still has so much backing. It's a British thing i guess.
Absolutely agree. I respect Haye for his performance v Chisora (his best at HW), but it was also too easy a win. Chisora was **** compared to the Vitali fight.
Haye is after another Klitschko payday, nothing less, nothing more.

So you're comparing Prime Vitali, to the Vitali now. Interesting.
Vitali wasn't even in his prime yet when he fought Lewis. Sadly, he would probably have had his best years when he had lay off time instead. But I really don't think his chin is weaker now just because he aged a bit. And he has too much experience for Haye. Remember he fought with one arm v Chisora. A healthy Vitali destroys davey haye
Haye is only interested in fighting for a huge payday that he has not earned. He has no interest in fighting any other fighter besides an old and past his prime fighter. And we all know win or lose he will never fight again. And once again he will dance around and take no chances and laugh his a$$ off all the way to the bank with his gullible fans money in his pockets. And to me this is why Haye is an absolute fraud.

You talk like its only Haye fans that want to see it, 71% of German fans said they want a Klitschko vs Haye on a RTL poll.
Okay, fair enough, regardless of what their nationality may be it is gullible fans in general. Because in my book he is still a fraud.

Funny how you guys believe Haye will knock out veteran Vitali, who has never been floored in his career. Vitali took monster power shots from Lewis and was still winning against Lewis. Haye won't knock out Vitali, because he wouldn't even engage that much- it will go much the same as against wlad (or worse for Haye)

I agree that Wlad is much more defensive and that fight with Vitali would give Haye more chance for landing.
But apart from the speed I can't see anything on Haye's side.
Vitali has way better chin, comparable power at worst and advantage in overall physic. If Haye could pressure Vitali like Chisora did, and be resistant to Vitali's punches and retain speed and power he would have a good chance to win.. But I don't believe Haye is capable of doing that.
Only way I can see Haye winning is lucky series of punches for TKO or Vitali's body doesn't cope - the second is more probable but it's not likely unless fight happens in 2 years time when Vitali would be 43-44.
There is no luck involved when you knock someone out
I can see's Hayes speed and fast feet and bodywork wrong footing Vitali. Ive watched Vitals last 3 fights, the guys footwork is terrible now, he is so stiff,age has caught up with him. He reminds me of when Del Hoya fought Pacman. I don't think Vitali really deep down wants to risk stepping in the ring and i do believe Haye fancies his chances after watching the Chisora bout.
Either way it would be a 100 times better fight than Haye Vs Wlad, someone is getting TKO'd that is for sure and it is the best HW matchup out there for both fighters..no reason to fight a bum like Charr.

You are overseeing that Chisora produced much greater pressure on Vitali than Haye ever could.
Vitali being an older fighter doesn't prefer someone who jumps all over him all the time.
Haye just can't produce such a pressure and it's likely that Vitali dictates the tempo. In that case, Haye has a slim punching chance.
He absolutely can't outbox Vitali and on top of that his chin is not top class.
Haye best chance is to make Vitali overaggressive and make him miss a lot of punches, but I can't see experienced Vitali would do something like that.
Chisora is tailored made for Haye..
Vitali fights nothing like Wlad, he's not defensive, he likes to brawl, he TRIES to be exciting. He likes throwing flurries, thus he is caught more easily, but he can take risks because unlike Wlad his chin is made from granite.
Not sure why people think Vitali would fight like Wlad, they don't approach fights in the same way, they dont have the same tactics and they dont have the same trainer
Haye will land way more on Vitali than he would Wlad, because Vitali gives you the opportunity to land, mix in the fact he is not fast as he use to be, he is open for a TKO.
On the other hand Vitali has a chance of beating Haye too because there will be more exchanges and more counters
Wlad gave nothing to Haye, just a jab and a weighted clinch, never been a risk taker because of his chin.
Vitalis and his management are scared, they don't want to start their political career after getting TKO'd by David Haye, that will be a huge setback
Vitali will take on any bum but fight someone with lighting speed hands, great footwork, body movement and power.
We all saw how Chisora was landing clean on Vitali all night, even beating him to the jab at some points, had he been a little faster, Vitali wud be in trouble

It's not reallythe same thing. Klitschko hasn't fought haye and has had negotiations going several times with Haye balking each time.
Also this crap coming from Haye is is usual self promotion so that in case he gets the fight he can make his purse bigger. He always starts out by saying that people are afraid of him.....
Just cheap, schoolboyish rubbish for the fans' consumption. They swallow it.
If he does fight Klitschko you can be certain that he'll waltz around on the outside with a very occasional quick dash to flail away with a single punch at a time. He won't take any chance of staying within reach of a Klitschko punch. It'll be like the last 4 rounds of Trinidad-De La Hoya.
what exactly is he suppossed to do within klitschko's reach?
or do you expect him to fight on the inside despite likely grappling and 35+ weight advantage from klitschko?
wtf can he do besides use his speed from the outside?
