David Haye's Licence.

[JLP]

The Valuev fight was a shocker handful of punches thrown in the whole fight... David Haye was deffo the best Cruiserweight in the World but deffo not at heavyweight he never took enough fights.. If he wanted to be this big name why not fight Wilder,Price and Fury they look like the future... I think he would lose at Least 2 out of those 3 fights.. I like Haye he's good for boxing

Wow Haye may not be the greatest HW but he would certainly beat wilder and fury and he is leagues above price in experience, price is nowhere near ready for Haye yet he isnt even fighting at top domestic level.

Haye's previous two winning fights have been against a guy Fury beat nearly two years ago and a guy Price banged out in about 30 seconds flat.

Thats great but he also went the distance with the world number 1 HW and beat the WBA HW champion as well as the Cruiser weight number 1 and the WBO champion. You're listing the exceptions rather than the rule. Bearing in mind haye obliterated both harrison and chisora theres nothing to imply he hasnt got enough in the tank to take the 3 guys you suggested.

There's merit in Haye v Fury or Price, but those fights are best saved for when at least one of the fighters have a world title - it won't be long.

But Deontay Wilder??? Is there a more protected fighter in boxing today? He's built a record feasting on nobodies and never-will-be's. I'm sure Haye would step into a ring with him tomorrow, but Wilder would have no part of it.

Haye v Povetkin May 25th O2 Arena. Watch this space...

[Terrrrry]

Haye v Povetkin May 25th O2 Arena. Watch this space...

Same date as the Champions League final at Wembley.

I doubt it...

[Wrists]

And the same day as Froch v Kessler

Doubtful

[earsjohn]

I doubt it...

Why not? Burns v Katsidis kicked off at Wembley Arena minutes after GB v Australia in Rugby League finished at Wembley Stadium just next door.

[wadey]

Same bill as Froch.

[dondada]

Same bill as Froch.

Well, that's do-able, I suppose...

[earsjohn]

Same bill as Froch.

Well, that's do-able, I suppose...

Surely that would signal the return of Box Office to Sky?

[Final round]

Same bill as Froch.

That would be some bill!

[Finn]

i would cry with joy if that happens

[mickey1975]

Same bill as Froch.

Well, that's do-able, I suppose...

So they stretch themselves to the limit to pay Kessler and now there is cash for Haye?

Where's this 'stretch' bollocks coming from? Sky?

However, if they have more dough to spend on boxing, I would hope they would spend it more wisely than on Haye.

I think Haye will get them more viewers in the short term than anyone else that springs to mind. And for whatever reason, sky do tend to base boxing policy on the short term. I think it would be worse if he ended up on a channel nobody has. I do have a soft spot for Haye mind, so my view may well be cloaked with a hint of bias.

[macaca]

I would/will pay for Froch vs Kessler, Haye vs ........ errrrrrrr, not bothered to be honest
Time is a great healing boat but you can miss the fiesta ........................ now or never David, smash David or Tyson ..................... yawn .............

[macaca]

I do not see the problem with David wanting and waiting for a big pay day against the best that is out there. How much he would get fighting Price and Fury combined wouldn't get near the hyped up match purse against the other brother.
Like him or loathe him, he is a smart, good looking, a funny guy with bags of charisma, has an intelligent business brain and he doesn't really need more money.
If anyone can cherry pick, why not him? He is doing what the KKBs have done the last 10 years. Good on you David. To be honest with you, I think in the WWF or whatever it is called now, he would be amazing, limelight, smack talk, tv time, comedy ....

As for Valuev ...... what the fornicate else could you do mate against that guy but run around and try to get some punches off, grapple with him and risk a cock in the gob?

[dondada]

He is doing what the KKBs have done the last 10 years.

No he isn't. Like them or not, they cleared out the division and picked up titles. Haye won a belt and sat around waiting for big money fights with the KK bros. They're not on a par.

Even I agree with that. There just isn't another heavyweight currently who compares to the Wlad and Vitali in the slightest, I just think Haye compares quite well against the rest of the 'contenders'.
