Wladimir Klitschko-David Haye in Talks For Next June

[elbonzoseco]

mmh, I wanted Wlad to knock out Haye, but now I'm rooting for Monte. June 09 is way too late, Wlad had just established a good rhythm. He should use his prime better and Haye is not really a threat.

Haye should fight one more heavyweight before trying his luck with Wladimir.

But it's best for Wladimir to fight him sooner rather than later. Wlad will be age 33 in a few months, and like many fighters, he may start to decline.

Exactly. I'm a Haye fan but dog c'mon one decent contender then title shot? Man anyone say Brock Lesnar right here? Dimitrenko is the only guy who should get that and so Haye and Sasha should fight for WBO mandatory shot wit Klitschko. If the fight needs to take place in June then maybe February after they both fight in November? I don't know shoot if the Wlad-Haye fight is in Vegas next summer I'm on a plane and goin to that fight.

David Haye is in advanced negotiations to fight Wladimir Kltischko, his manager and trainer Adam Booth has revealed. According to Booth the fight will take place in the summer of 2009, depending on whether Haye and Kltischko can overcome their next opponents. In an interview on Setanta Sports News during Steve Bunce’s Boxing Hour Booth admitted ‘we’ve had communication’. [details]

Why does not Wlad unify instead?

If it's in Vegas, I'm going for certain.

I'm tempted to go to the UK if it's there.

Yeah man MGM grand or Mandalay Bay would be a terrific spot for such a spotlight. Have it in Vegas where everythin is, I'd jump on a plane to Vegas in a second to see em fight in June.

[MANGLER]

This fight is always in talks. Let's hope Haye wins big over Monte so we can see this **** already.

[edgarg]

Haye's rushing into this too soon. I'd say he needs at least another year before taking a shot at Wlad, but whatever, should be interesting and I will happily give Dave the benefit of the doubt.

I think you're right. Barrett is not a Grade A opponent at this stage of his career, at age 37, with multiple losses and several beatdowns or KO's. He's merely a stepping-stone. His win over "Big Sky" or Big Train" or whatever he calls himself was a lucky early punchout, which stunned the guy and left him open to be finished. He took about 6 Barrett wallops on the chin before going down. He rushed right into Barrett leaving himself open , like an amateur, and deserved what he got.

He should call himself...."Big Flop".

Layoff?

I'm excited for this fight to happen however I hope that neither guy, espeically Haye has a long lay off between their upcoming fights and their fight together. Stay busy Hayemaker! Show us you mean business.

[KILLA RIGHT]

Haye by ko baby

[Derranged]

If Haye loses to Barret... Does this mean W Klitschko vs. Barret II??? That **** would be a masacare.
