Comments Thread For: Wladimir Klitschko vs David Haye is Rumored To Be Close

[Check]

I'm buying it. It's the first HW fight I've wanted to see since.....................

I dont even know anymore its been so long.

More than likely you won't have to buy it. The first go around Haye/Klitchko was going to be on regular HBO. Since Haye has never fought and the network and Klitchko hasn't been on HBO in ages I don't see them changing it up. It won't be on PPV here.

this is going to hurt all the ****sure know-it-alls when they do fight. i never really doubted Wlad and Haye wouldnt fight, but all the young generation or the people who have sat on the internet for too long have forgotten about playing a long term game for maximum return. the "i want it now!" folks should stick this one in the memory banks when they worry about other fights not happening....stick mayweather & pacman in that category too...just because it doesnt happen at the pace you want it to happen doesnt mean it wont happen lol

Well either way I'm watching it. But glade to know its more than likely going to be free. I just hope there's as much drama in the ring as there has been outside of it. That's all I want is a good fight. I hope Haye can at least make it one.

[Enzo Mc is SHIT]

Haye doesn't fear getting hurt, he fears not squeezing every penny out of his ability. By fighting Valuev and Harrison and delaying a Klitschko fight he's made himself a very, very rich man and now stands to make a lot more for the really big one than he would've done two years ago. He's played it perfectly.

I hope it's really going to happen, there is no matchup I want to see more...

But I'm still skeptical about Haye having the courage to man up and step into the ring with Wlad.

I won't completely believe it until I actually see Haye enter the ring.

If Haye gets in the ring and stops Wlad, will you give him full credit and apologize for all the mean things you've said about him?

[Heeb]

I won't hold my breath.

[Who are you?]

Wladimir Klitschko said he doesn't want to work with HBO anymore.

This fight will not be carried on HBO.

This is a European fight, all the money's in Europe.

Klitschko has said he doesn't want HBO covering him anymore.

HBO will not be showing this fight, even though, in my opinion, its the best matchup of the year for 2011 and is probably the biggest fight in the entire sport of boxing.

[Who are you?]

HBO has really lost a lot of major fighters over the years.

HBO coverage today is marginal at best and tends to focus on Americans when the truth is Europeans have more titles and the sport is certainly gravitating away from the US more and more.

HBO is on a downward spiral and Haye/Klits probably wont be on it.

I can't speak for Haye, I'm asking you a question though.

[Who are you?]

Showtime may pick it up. If not, it will certainly be carried by ESPN.

Right,

It would be great to see Wlad on TV. And he's already had many great fights on American TV.

But I remember Wlad specifically stated he doesn't want to work with HBO anymore.

ESPN is probably the most likely because they have shown many of Vitali's and Wlad's latest fights.
