    Bitchko keeping all HBO money

    You have to rate Haye, he went out of his way to make this fight.

    Klitschko will recieve the full revenue the fight generates, including fees from HBO for US rights, RTL German rights, the rest of the foreign television sales, the live gate and sponsorship money. In addition, he will get a percentage of Setanta UK rights as well.

    Haye's only revenue will be from Setanta's TV rights. He will also have to fight twice more if he beats Wlad.

    Negotiations were difficult, often acrimonious and left for dead more than once, but unified heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko and former cruiserweight champion David Haye of England finally came to terms Wednesday after months of negotiations.

      I'm all for the champion getting the bigger share, but that's ridiculous.

            The Klitschko brothers RULE boxing. NOBODY can beat them. They run the show and call the shots.

            Hypejob Haye hasn't done jack **** at heavyweight, he's only getting a title shot because he has a big mouth. He should STFU, get on his knees and BOW DOWN to the superior Wlad for giving him a title shot.

            Wlad is gonna shatter Haye's glass chin and all you pathetic Klitschko haters will cry yourselves to sleep again.

              Wow, one things for sure, the 2 fight option should Haye win would generate the most amount of money the bros and Haye could possibly make by fighting anyone else. Its a good deal all around if Haye wins! If he loses, he got screwed out of a lot of money, wheather rightfully so or not...

                  For Haye to take that deal he must be 100% confident that he's going to win, i can't wait to see Haye KO Wlad.

                    These are hardly the kind of negotiations you want to see from the Heavyweight champs of the world.

                    Keeping nearly all the money and insisting on two rematch clauses? I find that pathetic.

                    Round one to Haye for being the bigger man, taking all that crap and still signing for the fight.

                    The Klit brothers attempt to monopolize the heavyweight division by making their opponents jump through hopes is nothing but bad for boxing.

                    These guys need to learn to respect the sport.

                    I think Wlad's a good guy but I hope he gets sparked out, and Vitali's fans - get over it Lewis won!
