BoxingScene.com was informed by promoter Joe DeGuardia that David Haye (21-1, 20KOs) may have bailed on the potential fight with undefeated heavyweight prospect Kevin "Kingpin" Johnson (27-0-1, 7KOs). Last week, Haye's reps contacted DeGuardia and began negotiating for Johnson to meet the former cruiserweight champ on November 15 at the O2 Arena in London. [details]

I dont believe he's afraid of Kevin Johnson. C'mon now a guy with 7 KO's in what like 22 fights against nobody's? I know Kingpin is a good contender and has the ability to get a title shot one day but c'mon a undisputed cruiserweight champ afraid of a up an coming fighter? That can't be the reason. Any of the mentioned names are good with me but Golota, Toney and Rahman would be bad and boring fights. Chambers, Barrett, Johnson and even JD are good to me. If anyone should knock the hell out of JD and let him know what his record is, it should be Haye. Wassup with American TV and this fight?

haye should be fighting someone like Meehan or Dimitrenko to get him ready for Klitschko. Those 2 are the closest in size and fighting style to wlad that there is in the hw division right now and Haye would be well prepared for wlad if he beat 1 of those 2.

Chapman has knockout power, I don't know where all the hates coming from. Never seen chapman fight before but it actually looks like a tough fight in my opinion for hayes first fight at heavy. He has my respect atleast, maybe not everyone elses.

or maybe avoiding the best fighter in the division steve cunningham to fight Macca
all this talk of a "top 10 heavyweight", then he picks a feather fisted fighter like Johnson who couldnt crack an egg, now it looks like he has pulled out on him to fight some nobody with an extemely padded record
he talked a great game moving up to heavyweight, saying how they are all out of shape bums,
Rahman,Maskaev,Golota,Toney were all out there to fight and Haye didnt want to fight them,
maybe if he had kept his big mouth shut he wouldnt look so foolish now,
i guess you are one of the idiots who think he can beat Wlad, smartass
