LOL at Haye adding more and more conditions. Why doesn't he just come out with what he really means, which is "I will never fight a Klitschko"?WBA heavyweight champion David Haye has sent a message to both Klitschko brothers, that he is refusing to fight them in Germany. If a unification fight were to happen, Haye wants it to happen in London. The South London Press reports that Wembley or the Greenwich’s O2 Arena would be the most likely venues. Haye's demand should not be a problem as both Klitschko brothers have expressed their willingness to fight him in London with a 50-50 deal across the board.

And in any case, he said he wanted the 2009 fight with Wlad to be in the UK and promised he could deliver a football stadium as a venue, and then said he couldn't deliver that after all and the fight would have to be in Germany. He's obviously hoping no one remembers that.Comment

As someone else said, the Klitschkos can and should insist on a neutral ref and judges, wherever the fight is held.
Neutral refs and judges should be mandatory in all title fights, and I don't understand why they aren't. But they seem to be insisted on more often these days than in the past, and rightly so.Comment

Because Haye probably won't deliver Wembley. He promised to deliver a football stadium for the 2009 fight and then backed out and the fight had to be moved to Germany. The K bros said they would be happy to fight wherever the most money is. If Haye can't deliver a good venue in the UK, then he should be prepared to fight in Germany, where they can get a >60,000 crowd, or in the US, which would make the most money because of the HBO money. If he can deliver Wembley, fine, but making it a condition that the fight must be in the UK, when there is no evidence that he can deliver a suitable venue such as Wembley, is just ridiculous. And pretending he's in a position to dictate all the terms just makes him look like a spoilt brat. Which is what he is.Last edited by Dave Rado; 11-16-2010, 11:48 AM.Comment

Because of all the robberies and shady reffing we see lately, probably.As someone else said, the Klitschkos can and should insist on a neutral ref and judges, wherever the fight is held.

It's all about the awareness and interest in the fight wether a suitible venue in
England will be used! In 2009 It was a meaningful fight but not a massive fight that's why it was sent to Germany but now haye is a massive draw in he's home country and the klits are big enough names to help sell the fight. Therefore there's no need to send it to Germany where cheap tickets help make big crowds in the stadiums , Hbo will want this fight regardless where it's held so that's extra money in the pot plus throw in 80-90k ticket sales at &
£50 plus and easily 1m uk ppv sales it's too big not to have in EnglandComment
