    1. He doesn't have the courage to face a top 10 opponent

    2. He is an awful ***** to negotiate a fight with, from what I understand.

    3. He knows he doesn't have the chin to survive many heavyweight fights, so he just wants to cash out against a Klitschko.

      I think number 3 is closest to the mark.

            I don't think it is necessarily a "courage" thing, more a "money" thing. He stands to lose a massive amount of money if he gets beat by a Heavy before he fights Wladimir or Vitali, and he knows he has a suspect chin and that it is highly likley that one of the other top contenders could stop him. THat is pretty much where it is at.

              if he fights an average heavyweight he'll never get a title shot and its pretty obvious

                I'm still waiting for Haye to fight a real fighter at heavyweight like Povetkin, Arreola, Chagaev, Chambers, Dimentrenko and not a shot fighter like Barrett or that white dude he fought who I never heard of until he fought him.

                  i think it might have something to do with getting TV dates.

                    Good post! Haye is not going to risk his winning the lotto with his mouth by facing any serious threat before getting his payday against KlitschkO.

                    Haye has called Ibragimov and Chagaev "bums" so he should have NO problems fighting either of these "bums" to stay busy...
