What's going on with him? I've heard nothing for months.

He's been mouthing off about the Klitschko's for years now... Why's he not fought one then?
 
Round 1 - Haye got 'injured'... supposedly
Round 2 - Haye wanted All UK revenue whilst leaving Klitschko's with Germany's Revenue.
Which the Klitschko's done there sums and realised that'd be roughly a 60/40 split in Haye's favour... so rejected.

To be honest, I think that is fair. The Klitschko's are boring and no one would pay to see that match to see them. Haye, as much as he mouths off, is a lot more exciting a fighter. He goes for knockouts.

Against the right sort of fighter maybe. Didn't so much against that huge monster dude.

The Klitschko's rumoured to want a 50/50 split all the way, if Haye was serious about fighting them, he'd snap their hands off.
 
Let's not put all of this on Haye. The contract they wanted him to sign last time had so many rematch contingencies (against BOTH brothers - I have never seen a fight contract that included rematch rights for a completely different boxer) that even if he had taken a title from them he wouldn't have been able to keep it as he couldn't make a mandatory defence.
 
Fight with 'A Farce' Audley Harrison announced for 13 November. Should be a laugh.


"I don't believe Audley deserves a chance but enough people want to see him finally destroyed, that is why this fight is happening," stated Haye.

Harrison said: "I am ecstatic at getting a shot at the title. When I land my left hand on him he is done."
 
They're all a bunch of bottlers as far as i'm concerned. Haye, Harrison, The Klitschkos, Mayweather, Pacquiao.. too concerned with money and the impact of losing a fight than they are about putting on good competitive fights for the fans.

This is why MMA is growing in popularity and boxing decreasing. In boxing, you handpick your opponents in hope of preserving an 'undefeated' record (dodging difficult fights or taking them when the time is 'right'). In MMA, guys just go out there and fight, and there's not such a taboo on losing. Undefeated records mean little, especially if you haven't been having tough fights. All the champions have lost at one point in their careers, and they come back from it to become better fighters.
 
i'm a massive Haye fan but am gutted he is taking this fight, seems very strange, he was going to sort out the heavy weight division but now he is making a joke of it.
 
They've been fucking up full stop, they're so unconvincing with this bad blood malarkey, they were on SSN & couldnt look at each other while they 'trash talked' & were clearly about to laugh on a few occasions.
 
Didn't he say something earlier this week about how this fight was going to be as one sided as a gang rape ?
