Comments Thread For: Klitschko Trainer: David Haye Needs To Earn His Shot

[LacedUp]

But he had his chance!

You are talking like he never was given a chance. What he did to earn it for the second time?!

Should Charr be given a second chance? He KOed Konstantin Airich...

He had his chance against Wlad - not Vitali. I'm fine with Wlad not giving him a rematch - other than money I don't see why he should right now. Except for KO'ing him.

Vitali has called out Haye a lot - it's the fight everyone wants to see, why shouldn't they fight? He's still ranked in the top five and if he beats charr in June, he's beaten two recent HW contenders. Plus Vitali will make more money than he's ever had before. And it will easily be his best opponent since Vitali's comeback.

It would just be a shame if it didn't happen. That's just my opinion.

Chisora and Charr impressive...

Wow are we really going there?

Haye should of been fighting Kubrat Pulev.

Pulev wanted to fight Fury instead.

It's the fight that would leave to a mandatory against Wlad. So Pulev didn't want to fight Haye. Understandable. Haye would be too much risk, too little gain if he was to win. Fury makes more sense at this point for Pulev.

Deal with it!

That was then, this is now.. lol

Ha! Like Pianetta earned his? And Wach, Thompson, and Mormeck???

Please! Wlad and his people know Haye is is biggest threat and he doesn't like him to boot.

Tony Thompson >>>> David Haye

Lol. Tony Thompson was smashed up in sparring against Haye in 2010 you tit.

I completely agree with Banks. Haye's mouth earned him the shot at Wlad and he turned Vitali down twice.

Time for Haye to earn his shot. Fighting Charr followed by a top contender seems a good route.

i dont think its just his mouth, its like any other champion moving up a weight class having a crack at the champ in a weight class above. i dont see an issue with that. however, now i do agree haye needs to earn a shot but when you look at the options the klitschkos have, there isnt any bigger fight than against haye. unless of course the brothers want to fight each other.

Because I am afraid Vitali is pretty much done..
If he is in shape as he was against Adamek I would be the first one to shout here to make it happen.

But he is not and I would hate to see an old great fighter going for too long.
He should retire and I think he will. If Charr turned out differently he would probably be retired now.

He was pretty much inactive for the last 2 years. He already was given a chance at Klitschko. So he is not looking for the second chance..

He definitely need to do more to earn it.

I agree. He definitely needs to do more to earn it.

Just like Pianetta and others. Look at the calibre of opposition they tore through for year after year to get into the position of a fight with the big guys.

Pianetta beat the fresh, young, dangerous Botha and McCall. Hey, McCall dropped Lewis 38 years ago.

Wach took down Tye Fields and Kevin McBride. Hey, McBride beat Tyson's shadow 19 years ago.

Thompson really proved himself against Chazz Witherspoon inbetween 2 bouts with Wlad.

Jean Marc Mormeck got knocked out by David Haye before beating Vinny Maddalone.

Wladimir only fights 1 dangerous opponent every 4 years. It's in his contract.

Well that's fair enough. But then he should retire. Haye would fight someone for the vacant belt and the winner of the two would probably fight Wlad for the undisputed title down the line. Think Wlad would probably want that as well.

I don't think its about earning the shot...

It's more of a respect thing....They just do not care for Haye and will only fight him if they want to, not because Haye wants to.
