Full refutation by Steward:
"“Pure rubbish,” said Steward, who did not clarify if he did or did not meet with Haye in Miami.
“Even if [Haye] did not have a match coming up with Wladimir, it would be totally unethical, and I would never do something like that, to train someone to fight the brother of someone I’m close to. But I’ve worked and trained with Vitali also, it’s a very close relationship we have. It’s not just a contractual deal like I’ve been in in some situations. I’m extremely close with Vitali and Wladimir.
“And for no amount of money would I do anything like that. The fighters I’ve been the closest with, are Thomas Hearns, Lennox Lewis, and I’d put Wladimir Klitschko on that same level. I’m extremely close with Wladimir and Vitali, and we spend a lot of time [together] beyond just the training camps and the boxing. So I would never do anything like that – it would be totally unethical and immoral” a bemused Steward explained.
As for the man Haye is actually fighting this Saturday, Wladimir Klitschko told dailymail.co.uk today that Haye is now sitting around in his hotel room in Hamburg, Germany, dreaming up crazy scenarios to try to avoid the reality of the upcoming clash.
“Do you believe all this nonsense? We’ve been hearing a lot of trash from David Haye and this is another thing he’s created in his hotel room,” said Wladimir.
“But little by little the reality is hitting home.”"
