[Davros?]

That know nothing Booth would have you believe that

Not true

According to Bernd Boente, Haye is being very greedy and making ridiculous demands.

Strange how Haye says he wants the fight so much and yet he is making big demands even though he brings nothing to the table.

Seems like Haye just to cash out to me

You cant believe what you read in the media as both sides are going to be clearly biased, From past history Haye has never been greedy as far as money is concerned he made very little in his fight against Mormeck and was willing to fight him in France and his team has now said they are willing to make the fight in Germany, And i cant believe that Wlad would make ****** demands until all the details are finalized this is all speculation. I think the fight will likely take place in Germany now but who knows yet.

[Chunk..]

I've been hoping the fight will be in Germany if it happens. The champion should choose the location, not a VOLUNTARY challenger!

Wlad would be smart to NOT fight Haye in a hostile environment with his home referees - if Wlad were to slip and fall, Haye would win by TKO.

Haye should realize he's lucky to be getting this fight, without needing to fight a top ten heavyweight (as determined by The Ring or by the Boxrec or IBO's computers), as he promised he would.

It was Wladimir who originally choose Stamford Bridge as a venue for the fight because he's good friends with Chelsea FC owner Roman Abramovich.

I totally agree that Wlad is the champ and he should call the shots but yet again people(Wlad fans) are accusing Haye of being greedy when there's no proof whatsoever that's he's making unreasonable demands. Haye said he'd fight Wlad anywhere he chooses.

It takes two to tango. Blaming Haye for this fight not being signed yet is bollocks! Take your Wlad tinted glasses off and be logical for a change instead of looking for any reason to slag off Haye and make false accusations against him.

This is true, one must not forget that the Klitschkos have entertained this fight from day one and Haye's camp may have shown a certain naivety but have been accommodating to their demands. Those wearing the 'Wlad tinted spectacles' are mouthing off prematurely and not looking at the situation objectively. Perhaps they are making up for the lack of passion Wlad shows in the ring.

[MANGLER]

They need to sign on and STFU. I'm sick of hearin about the fight. Just do it already.

[Naps]

The Klits are a joke. Only happy if they are fighting cans and bums.

Sammylove.
You're a moron. Tunney is one of the most intelligent posters on
these boards. Just because he doesn't agree with you, doesn't
mean he is unintelligent. Grow up douche bag.

Are you trying to emulate the Klit brothers? Are you the big spoon sticking up for the younger sibling? I think your next move could be a ********** naked pose with Tunney.
Please don't publish it here though.

David Haye is the joke here. He beats tomato can Barrett and he thinks he has a right to fight the champion? Now he makes NOTHING and gets to fight on ESPN.:gay:

Please look at Wlad's record and who he has fought, top 10, undefeated fighters, and the best in the division.

Now take back what you said before you look like a complete idiot.

U forget he Unified at CW and fought twice at HW getting Spectacular KO wins, the opponents might not have been Tyson and Ali but its the WAY he beat them - impressively, brutally and EXCITINGLY!!! Barrett was in good form too, he wasnt that bad.

The HW contenders all suck Haye Unifying a division below is more impressive than what they have done, are u telling me Hasim Rahman deserved a shot? Or Vitali after all that time out getting a direct crack?

So ****ing what? There are people fighting at heavyweight with BETTER RECORDS who have fought BETTER PEOPLE AT HEAVYWEIGHT that deserve a shot before Haye.

Boxing has become a joke because of big mouths like Haye having 1 mediocre fight and demanding a shot at the title. What has happened is good for Haye and good for the sport. Let the bigmouth EARN a title shot.
