David Haye Was Medically Cleared For July 25 To Fight

[Kris Silver]

So the July 11 date was just more mind games by David Haye. Had they agreed to it, he would have cancelled again.

Wladimir should never give this creep a title fight unless he has to.

Ya. He spend months borderline years chasing Wlad and took a bad deal because he was so desperate to have a go and retire early, that he always actually, planned to get a back injury and delay a few weeks. He then made statements saying he'd fight at the earliest cleared time by the doctor. All the time over this period, knowing it'd never happen because he planned to wimp out.

Tunney your such an awful poster at times. Seriously.

That was fucking AWFUL.

Atlas trained the most exciting Heavyweight champ ever{Tyson} what do you expect him to say about Wlad?

Atlas was never Tyson's trainer. He was an assistant to Tyson's trainer for a few weeks, but he couldn't get along with Iron Mike so he was fired (or quit).

Teddy Atlas really was the trainer of Michael Grant, who was two inches taller than Wlad at 6'8" and had a reach of 86" compared to Wlad's 81".

But despite his physical advantages, Grant had boxing's worst trainer so he never did get too far.

Assistant trainer, regardless he still witnessed the glory years of a great Heavyweight era. Lewis, Holyfield, Tyson,. In comparison to those fighters Wlad doesn't entertain but I still enjoy his fights. Look at it from Teddy's point of view.

[arturboruc]

Yes, and Haye is giving himself a bad reputation in boxing.

People will avoid doing business with him, I think he'll have a difficult time finding decent heavyweight opponents now.

will k2 make chagaev sign a 3 fight contract like haye?

if not why not?

i think people will be lining up to fight haye!

Haye's fans are mostly in the UK, and they are few in number, but they seem to be very aroused by him.

Those 60-70,000 fans will be there to see Wlad, and they'll be happy to have an undefeated world heavyweight titleholder like Chagaev, rather than a bum like Haye as Wlad's opponent.

[lettdragon]

No, HBO or not, Wladimir-Chagaev is still on.

Most of Wlad's TV money comes from RTL - he's relatively unknown in the US, but he's a big star in Europe.

southern,usa,loves`klitschkos,

Grant didn't go far because he had very few amateur fights (12) before turning pro. Size and reach doesn't mean **** if you don't have the proper background. He did well until he reached the Lennox Lewis level of competition and it ruined him. He was rushed too quickly. Wlad had a long and very successful amateur career and you can't compare the two just because Grant had a "longer reach". And Teddy Atlas didn't train Grant until AFTER he was damaged goods. At least try to tell the truth sometime, Tunney.

I mentioned that because the hateful Teddy Atlas always goes on about the "reach advantage" the Klitschkos supposedly have.

Teddy Atlas never did his fighters any good at all. Michael Moorer won a world title DESPITE him, and probably would have accomplished more if he had a good trainer like Manny Steward instead of Teddy.

I don't like Atlas either, just so you know. He's horrible but not only towards the Klitscko's.
