Comments Thread For: Odlanier Solis Rips Into Vitali Klitschko Over Money

[mrlopez]

I am really confused and I really want a Haye fan to explain to me how he deserves a 50/50 cut? He really is like on a D level with what he has done in the HW division while both Klit bros are A level. And if I was running the K2 show Haye would get no more then 70/30 or go home and have a rematch with Audley, or fight Tyson Fury. And far as Solis is concerned he is a big fat blob who has less then 20 fights and has fought no one. Hell, he should be happy if they paid for his room and gave him meal money, which obviously would be a big chunk of change, to fight for a title.

I'd like to know why he doest deserve 50/50? not a fan of any of the champs but Haye brings more money to the table and is a champ too. all the klit bros have done is fought mandatories, beat them but they werent exciting fights. And this match is the most anticipated fight in the hw division (which is very sad to say)..........

Legacy-wise, Haye doesn't deserve 50/50, 70/30 would be closer to the mark.

But apparently, the numbers confirm that he is an equal draw PPV-wise.

The business of boxing has long been a joke, but is getting steadily worse.

We need one regulatory body, one champion, and a pre-defined split.

What freaking bizzaro world did I wake up in where fat, unproven, mostly boring contenders gripe about their cut of a title shot with one of the division's top draws?

I get that this is the cash out but good grief.

apparently Vitali offered him less than what a mandatory is due....its going to go to a purse bid and Solis with be getting more than what he originally asked for (15%).

What is the problem then, exactly?

Haye is only known for his mouth and not for what he has actually done in the ring. Because in reality unless you want to call a 4-1/2 run as unified cruiser champ, not undisputed as Haye claims, and his D level run at HW a great legacy he really has done little to garner so much attention. So, again it is his mouth that brings him all the attention. And after July I hope, I say hope because he does have a punchers chance, to never have listen to him again. However, he has already agreed to all of this before so I have no faith that Haye will show up until the fight is over and it is in the books.
