    After the first sign of Wladimir slowing down he will come out loud as always demanding the rematch.

      You call lining up all the undefeated prospects and annihilating them scraping the bottom of the barrel? Tosser.

        Definitely Yes.

        This is just some charade he's got going.

          Probably not

          He's done what he set out to do, namely make money. 30 million in the bank, and he's not the kind of guy that spends huge amounts on random things, he's comfortable for life and so are his kids.

          It's a shame with Haye, I wish he would continue to fight but I also understand where he's coming from, he's a wealthy man now, and just can't get up for fighting some scrub like Arreola or whoever for a measly couple hundred g's

          it is what it is

          Here's an interesting quote from the man himself

          I've been training from a young age and I'd be down the gym while my mates would be out having a laugh – shagging or whatever – but those are the sacrifices you have to make.

          "I suppose it was a boring life, but when I am not training I do let loose a bit. But I go about my business with no stress or drama. This game is simple. Win titles, make as much money as possible and get out with as many faculties as possible. That's it."

            Haye would take the Wlad rematch right now if he thought he could wrangle another multi-million pound payday out of it.

            The only reason he's going after Vitali is because he was dominated against Wlad and has no grounds for a rematch.

            Haye is pretty clever, he sells his brand the same way Mayweather does.

            Haye fights once a year, (at most)
            Haye builds up his fights over a long time, (maximise revenue)
            Haye markets himself on reality shows.
            I do see him as the British version of Mayweather in terms of how he manages his career.

            Clever? maybe financially, but I don't feel the respect he has within our country will be as enduring as a Benn, Eubank, Froch or even Bruno.

              He doesn't care, i'm 100% serious he doesn't give a **** what the man on the street thinks about him, that's from the horses mouth.

                "Prospects" LOL you just admitted yourself they are fighting unproven fighters, you dumb ****. Haye never quit like Vitali, almost everything you try to diss fighters with the Klitschko's have done worse.

                  Wrong.

                  Haye is obsessed with drawing attention to himself. He's been trying non stop for the last 5 years to become the center of attraction in the boxing media. He's a complete media whore.

                      Yeah he doesn't care about the sport or the fans, just David Haye and David Haye's bank account and talking about how great he thinks he is.

                      If Vitali and Wladimir don't fight him again I think it's fitting that he'll remembered for his classless little toe excuse following the biggest fight of his career when Wlad showed him he wasn't as great as his ego professed.

                      I prefer the champions who take risks and fight for the respect as much as for the money. Talk on David.
