Haye by himself generates maybe 30% of the money. But because it's a Klitschko whom he will fight against the PPV increases to 100%.
Thus Wlad brings twice as much money to the table. Let alone that Wlad has 4x more belts.
So 2x and 4x equal 8x. Haye should get 12.5% of the money and considering that he had only a handful of heavyweight fights he should get 10%. Wlad was extremely generous.
lol at the guy also saying haye staged a fight, wlad has built his career on fighting fat out of shape heavyweights, making fans pay loads in tickets to watch him
nobody has defeated more bums than wlad, nobody has ripped off more people than don wlad.
haye will save the divison
haye will end the career of that disgrace
I have already a nice collection of quotes of yours. Other Hayores basically repeat the same stuff over and over. But your posts are always fresh and quote-worthy.
I will feature a lot of your quotes on my blog.
I wonder whether you will change your username after the fight.Last edited by hweightblogger; 06-21-2011, 08:22 AM.Comment

David Haye has no credibility on the issue.
If contractual stipulations were the problem from the get-go, why didn't he say it, instead of using injury as a reason to back out.
You can't back out of two fights with the Klitschko brothers, and at a later time start talking about unfair terms in the contract. But I have no problem with Klitschko being called a Ruthless businessman. The politics and negotiations in the heavyweight division differ from the lower-weight divisions.
For these reasons:
The top heavyweight never fight on a PPV, who's broadcasting rights go to a top network (HBO or Shotime), that get replayed a week later like Mayweather's or Pacquiao's fights. Because of that, who is the bigger superstar, can draw bigger ticket sales, more PPV numbers isn't taken into consideration on who gets the bigger split of the pie. Instead the ranking or status of the fighters (who is The Champion, has more World Title belts etc,.) gets taken into consideration instead, in who gets how much of what.
In that case, Wlad has the IBF & the WBO, and the Ring Magazine's recognition as the Champ of the division, and thus uses it as leverage to take the bigger lump sum of the money.
It's also obvious that Sanctioning bodies play a much bigger role, than they do at the lower divisions.Comment
