Row over referee Rodriguez could count out Haye's WBA belt

[Medved]

just pick a neutral ref

the last thing we need is referee controversy

having rodriguez as referee does look suspicious on wlads part given the history

Rodriguez was ref when Wlad got KO'd bro,wtf u talking bout

refs cant stop KO's however they can make it easier on a boxer by giving decisions and letting dirty tactics fly

anyways Rodriguez name has been thrown out there, he'll have some ill feelings towards Haye and his camp, so anything he does will be looked as bias, why even leave room for controversy?

Wlad should have no problem in agreeing to change the ref, plenty good ones out there

[Rick Grimes]

If the ref is neutral and Wlad doesn't care he should have no problem changing the ref. If he decides to keep the ref and not fight for the WBA belt it will look bad for him.

[TheKza]

Why not Bayless? He's never, ever done anything but an excellent job.

Bayless is the go to guy for big fights. They need to fly his ass over to Germany.

it's already looking bad for haye , again looking for a way out of the fight


deja vu all over again ....

Im just tired of the brits complaining Haye has to make "sacrifices".

The facts are that he has no HW resume and Wlad has been a champ for a long time, if the roles were reversed you guys would say 75 Haye / 25 Wlad in UK would be fair.

Haye is getting 50% and a shot for 2 belts, now he doesnt want to put his own belt up? wtf? I thought he said he doesnt care who the ref is and will KO Wlad regardless.

The truth is that the ref could be Adam Booth and the fight could be in David Hayes house with his friends as judges and he wont outbox Wlad, Haye needs a KO.

Im tired of all this crying and hypocrites, look at the UK fans saying Maidana deserved 30% against Khan, and judah deserved 30-35%. But yet for David Haye with no HW resume he needs 60%, his choice of venue, his choice of everything huh? Boxing works on who is the top dog.

Please be consistent UK fans and try to reverse the roles. You dont see Wlad fans complaining that Haye is getting 50%, when we should be complaining that he only deserves 35-40% MAX given his Resume.

But yet Haye fans always got something to complain about.

[The Hammer]

why does wlads team have to choose everything

get a neutral ref in, everyone who has watched wlads fights knows recently refs have allowed him to do anything he wants in the wring

wba and haye camp are spot on, get a fair and neutral ref

The sanctioning organizations choose the refs.

Rodreguiz was chosen by the WBO and approved by the IBF.

I'm sure the WBA will approve him as well, the slimey con men Haye and Booth are just playing their usual games.

Khan puts more money into the pot, Haye is putting more money into the pot this fight. Splits are decided by how much revenue you generate not resume.

The fight's not in danger. The only person this will hurt is Wlad, if he was to win he still wouldn't be WBA champ.
