And im sure the brits want a klit fight more then a harrison fight

...and im sure you're wrong. British boxing fans maybe, but certainly not the general public who will provide most of the PPV buys.

A Haye-Klit fight would sell probably double a Haye-Harrison fight. Like I said, no one wanted a Harrison fight, not even the most ******ed of "casual fans", until Sky Sports got the hype train rolling. If it was Wlad instead of Harrison they were promoting the hype would be immense, much bigger than it is now, because Wlad is a much easier sale (and a lot of those "casual fans" are already well aware of the Klit bros from Haye's little campaign against them when he first moved up.)

ok, but as a BUSINESS man why not have Haye / Harrison and THEN Haye / Klit

double bubble baby. Do the math.

Well media hype has people in America thinking that Margarito can actually beat Pacquiao, too. And with the spotlight back on the well-spoken Harrison I'm sure a lot of former fans are getting behind him once again, pulling for an upset. This is just how it goes.

But you have to remember Haye is going to have to give the Klitschkos a much bigger piece of the pie than he does Audley, who's downright desperate.

It won't be a good boxing match, but it will be a good show that will entertain and make some noice in Hayes favor to promote himself and get his name back on the big stage again. (the fight will be also shown LIVE on ARD in Germany)

people want to see Haye, cuz he is entertaining and one of the guys casaul boxing fans think can beat Klitschko.

Haye vs Wlad will make **** loads of $$$$$$$

[Hitman932]

The fight is a joke on the world stage, but in England it is the biggest british matchup since Lennox Lewis / Frank Bruno. I don't know what the split is, but assuming Haye's getting the lions share of the money, he stands a good chance to make just as much/even more money fighting Audley than Wlad or Vitali. Is it fair? is life fair?

Just because every all British fight for the past decade has been a bum vs bum fight doesn't make this one special for being bigger than those pieces of steaming ****.

I didn't say this fight was special. I said people are buying it.
