Comments Thread For: Wladimir Klitschko-David Haye is Heading To Germany

[BattlingNelson]

Huge mistake by Haye noway will he get a fair decision in Germany, the fight should be held in a neutral place

Well he got a decision against Valuev didn't he?

[Capital Punch]

So we're looking at another six/seven months till they fight!? What a joke. No use to the division at all.

I don't like that the fight will be so late though, come on November? They both fought in March-April, why do they need an 8 month break?

Once again, as with the first negotiations, the fight is delayed wasting more months of Wladimir's prime!

It should be in July or August. Both of them should be fighting three times a year.

My god...November? You know I'm a Haye supporter but all his talk about "boring" heavyweights is crap. Haye's inactivity makes him just as boring as some of the fighters he's thrown that word at. Sure he's exciting when he actually gets into the ring...what, twice a year if we're lucky? Lame. This fight should happen no later than August/September.

yeah i know what you mean its really annoying the amount of time he has between fights. September would be fine and i am cool with it in Germany i got to go to Haye vs Ruiz so not to worried if i dont get to go i just want it to happen.

So far so good, it looks like the negotiations are going well! But why does Haye have such long breaks in between his fights? If it happened in November, that'd be another 7 month lay off, far too long. Haye should fight more often!

Worldcup mate no-one from europe is going to fight over the summer..

But that's in June, mate.

Wladimir and Haye can easily do this in August.

i really hope this fight happens and Haye doesnt pull out again

And it was an extremely close fight, which even some British commentators scored to Valuev. The myth about Germany is getting very tired. It's true that some German refs and judges have been hopelessly biased (Ottke), but as long as the refs and judges are all from neutral countries, which they were in the Haye-Valuev fight, and will be in the Haye-Wlad fight if it happens, then you're no more likely to be robbed there than anywhere else.

Yeah its really annoying.

One thing that annoys me is that no one ever calls Haye on it. I've never seen one boxing writer in an interview ask him how anyone with such low activity can possibly claim to be the saviour of the division.

Also, I've never seen any boxing writer ask him how anyone who plans to retire immediately after unifying (even if he is capable of unifying, which I doubt) could possibly be the saviour of the division. To be the saviour of the division he'd need to stay at the top fighting excitingly for many years.
