"They backed out of the stadium because of the economy and now we have to negotiate everything new," Boente said. "That [stadium] was a huge portion of the deal. Otherwise, Haye is not bringing much to the table."
Even without the stadium, Haye is still asking for a significant slice of the revenue.
"We are absolutely willing to do the fight, but we have to start all over again to bring them down from their high horse. Adam is very inexperienced. He may be a good coach, but he's definitely not a good manager. If he's not taking this chance, do you know how long it will be before Haye is in a mandatory position? It will take a long time. This is a unique chance for Haye and they are being so greedy. If Haye had a name like Lennox Lewis or Evander Holyfield in their best days, we would have additional money from international sales. But that is not the case."

Hold on a minute! You'll take Wlads manager, Bernd Boente word as truth but not Adam Booth's?
When a fight breaks down, both parties are gonna blame each other, that's natural. But it seems to me people are assuming that Bernd Boente word is gospel and Adam Booth is a Liar. How do you know it isn't the other way round?
Truth is, you don't!
The moral of the story is that both sides are to blame, not pinning all the blame on Haye and his management! That's bollox! Takes two to tango mate.

To me it seems the other way around when Booth did an interview people came out with bull**** about how Wlad is ducking Haye without knowing the other side of the story.
