People who bash DAVID HAYE's opponents are HYPOCRITES!

Haye wants to fight, but the Klitschko's are demanding BS stipulations.

Haye wants 50/50 (which is fair) and for each of them to keep the TV money from their own countries (also fair). But no, Klitschko's refuse.

They offered him a 50/50 split of everything no options and he turned it down, him getting even a 40/60 would be fair since he is not known world wide and is just a local draw, a rejection of their offers is a duck plain and simple.

1.5 million Euros for 50% of the UK revenue, only an idiot would accept that.

Or someone who actually wants to be heavyweight champion. Haye is a false prophet who only cares about retirement money. He doesnt even deserve 50%, these guys have been dominating the HW division for years and hes fighting Audley Harrison.

Haye is the one people wanna see the Klitschko's fight. It's garnered worldwide interest. 50/50 is perfect.

And Haye isn't a local draw.. the Klitschko's are a local draw. You think they would do good in England without Haye? No.

But Haye did good without the Klitschko's in Germany fighting Valuev.

I think they could fight most places in the world and sell better than Haye, ppl don't know who he is other than in England and hardcore fans.

50/50 is a very generous offer, he is the challenger, he is of less world wide notoriety so it is incumbent on him to make some concessions to make this happen but he wants to be treated like and equal when in the sport he is not.

Haye has done everything possible to not make this fight happen and instead of trying to prove all of the things he has been saying is fighting a 40yr old journeyman who has never done anything of note in the sport.

[Bring It On]

They're all fighting poor opponents.

Who YOU think is more popular is YOUR opinion. It's not the general consensus of every boxing fan.

Haye is not the challenger and neither are the Klitschko's. They're champions meeting in a unification bout.

Haye was willing to fight the Klitschko's if they agreed to keep THEIR OWN rightful money from THEIR country and he keeps his. But no, they had to throw a hissy fit and actually have the nerve to call him a ducker.

Harrison is certainly better than Chisora, at this point. Chisora is inexperienced with only 14 fights. Harrison has Olympic medals and the Prizefighter tournament. You may not be impressed by them but you have to agree that Harrison is the better opponent.

Yeah and the Klitschko's are still more well known than Haye. No one in America really knows who Haye is for example, whereas the Klitschko's have been on HBO several times.

Haye is the challenger. He holds a paper title which actually belongs to Wlad.

Chisora would beat Harrison. Olympic Medals...lol you know this is the pros right? Prizefighter? You cant be serious....

You sound very confused.

Also Haye will probably do a million ppv buys on sky which is approx £15 million in revenue, and sky take no where near as much as hbo do from a ppv show...so the majority of that money goes to the fighter/s. Biased klitschko fans and american fans accusing haye of ducking just don't know the FACTS.

A 50/50 split on everything is literally the klitschko's going into Haye's pocket and taking between £5-10 million pounds. Yes they will add value to an a big event because they are the recognised champions, but they should not expect to get 50% of the UK revenue simply because they have a poor deal with rtl, Haye will make more money in his next fight against audley, so why would he take the Klitschko fight on those terms??? Especially when he is giving up home advantage. The klitschko's have painted this picture that they have now put a fair offer on the table and haye is still not taking it...when the truth is that the first fight offer before haye was champ was disgusting...the current offer is better but still doesn't make sense for haye to agree to, and they are deceiving the public so haye gets pressured into signing the contract...its pathetic and unfortunately they have most of you fooled. Both sides must compromise or the fight will never get made.

The UK market is an anomaly, and most of you guys don't understand how much big British fighters bring to the table in revenue, this is exactly why manny pacquiao agreed to a 50/50 split with hatton across the board because bob arum understood how much the UK market brought to the table, but in that instance pacquiao brought a hell of a lot more to the table then either klitschko does respectively.

And Hatton brought a lot more than Haye...
