No. Haye is a risk-taker, that's half the reasons why he's a popular fighter. He's earned good money, has probably made shrewd investments & so there's no stopping him going for the two big guys now!

Haye will beat Wladamir, I'll make that prediction right now.

Is it on at Stamford Bridge? If so, I'm bang on going.

All hail the gifted one! :box:

Thanks for all your comments....

I can't possibly reply to everyone, but it was interesting to read all the viewpoints.

I think that Haye will have to take on other opponents this year if the Klitschko fight falls through, but at the moment the patience game is the best ploy, because if it would be madness to announce a fight against another fighter, whilst the outcome of negotiations with Klitschko are still in the air.....

Haye is a very good fighter, but is mainly untested at heavyweight, so his reputation at cruiserweight will only travel so far. He is capable of knocking out anyone in the heavyweight division, but equally, he is very susceptible to getting knocked out by any decent to good heavyweight out there at the moment and this is obviously the main reason why Haye is avoiding are more arduous route to a world title shot.....

If negotiations with Klitschko break down, then Haye will be forced to fight maybe three or four times, before he can become a mandatory challenger to one of the world title belts on offer. If this is the case, it will be interesting to see and will perhaps answer more questions about Haye, than a fight with either Vitali or Wladimir Klitschko......

"Its gone back and forth between the lawyers," Haye said on Setanta Sports News.

"It's nothing to do with money or the purse split, we agreed that months ago. All the terms have been agreed. It's just in the hands of the lawyers.

"The fight is going to happen. Sometimes lawyers get three-smart. Its the biggest fight in the world, you have to expect drama and people trying to pull a few strokes.

"If it doesn't happen in a week and a half its pretty clear that Wladimir's allowing his lawyers to block it."
