Should David Haye get another Wlad shot?

What's to justify? He's the WBA's number one contender so why shouldn't he get his shot again? If you're going to live by the ABC orgs you should be prepared to die by them. More world class experience than Pulev and certainly better than Helenius. Plus he brings more money to the table than any other fighter.Comment

And what other mandatory for any org has done this? Pulev hasn't, Arreola hasn't and Helenius hasn't. Why should Haye have to do more than the other top rated fighters? Doesn't make sense to me. I'd like to see him fight more, but there shouldn't be a different set of standards for one guy unless you're gonna apply them to the others.Comment

I don't have anhy issue with that thinking.
However, what top contenders has Arreola beat? What contender did Pianeta beat? What contender did Mormeck beat? What contender did Wach beat?
Haye beating Chisora alone is better than anything those guys done. I would still like to see him beat Pulev or Povetkin first though.Comment

You and I have already talked about this, but I'd rather see all the contenders fight each other to determine who is the most deserving. But as long as we have the ABC boys we're screwed on that. As long as they call the shots though Haye is as worthy as any other fighter right now and still brings the most money. I wish Wlad would just drop these bogus belts, save himself the sanctioning fees and just knock off the best contenders one by one.Comment

In other words, he's not active at all.
His no. 1 WBA spot is bogus. Plus Wladimir has already beat Haye. Haye simply doesn't deserve another shot without fighting himself back in the ring. And he hasn't done that just by beating Chisora almost a year ago, a guy who was coming off losses too.Comment

We wouldn't even be asking a question like this if we had a legit champion who defended in the way past champions did, instead of picking failed sparring partners to lower the world title to.Comment
