Is that for real?

If this is true then Fury is one deluded character.

[HomicideHenry]

Mind you, according to Peter Fury, Haye has yet to even put pen to paper to sign the contract. So all this bluff is just for the sake of bluffing. Until Haye signs anything, this fight is still up in the air. Jesus bless.

Well he isnt going to sign it if it's an 80/20 split in Fury's favour is he! Haha

How can David Haye sign a contract which doesn't exist? They agree terms first after discussions and then draw up a contract with everything they've agreed. Haye offered 50/50 which is a great offer for Fury. Fury wanted 80/20 in his favor. He knows that's crazy and only suggested that figure do duck Haye.

He ducked Price and vacated his titles and refused to go to purse bids with him twice. He's ducked Pulev sighting he wanted to go a different route for a world title. Which makes no sense as it was an IBF final eliminator. A win would make him mandatory for Wladimir. Now this with David Haye. There's been a lot of people denying that Fury has been ducking fighters. This is 100% proof that even his fans can't deny.

Yeah it's David Haye's fault. He should have agreed a 80/20 split .

And you honestly believe Fury is demanding 80/20?

Look at the carry on there was getting contracts signed between Haye and Klitschko due too demands be it on both sides.

Tyson Fury confirmed on twitter that he asked for 80/20 in his favour, stating that he is the man of the moment and not Haye.

[lillywhite14]

Haye has said Fury turned down 50/50 and is all talk.

That's now Price, Pulev and Haye that Fury has managed to "go in a different direction" from

Only so long people can defend what seems to be like deliberate attempts to avoid filters who stand a genuine chance of laying him out.

Disappointing from Tyson. I gave him the benefit of the doubt in the Price debacle but now its Pulev and Haye in quick succession. Hopefully it ends up being no more than nonsense banter between the two in order to hype it ( not sure if such an action would to be honest, hyping it would be to make the fight surely! )

Haye faced Wlad though. The issue he had with the Klits was him holding a strap and wanting a bigger piece of the pie, which he got. Wlad knew he would earn more taking a percentage cut against Haye than taking 95% against anyone else.

Haye has nothing to prove. Fury has now seemingly turned down Price, Pulev and Haye in order to fight Martin Rogan and possibly Fres Oquendo ( let's hope that's a bit of Fuy banter )

This is one of the reasons why boxing will never be as big as your other main stream sports. It's pathetic. If there were competitive fights happening every month, quigg vs Frampton, Haye vs Fury etc then Boxing would be back on the BBC. Its pathetic.

I actually think Fury or his camp are to blame here. Mick knows Haye would smash Tyson all over the joint.

[binipop]

I can't believe that this isn't a piss take on Furys part.

I think it's all a ploy (along with the Lennox baiting) to portray himself as a boxing villain. he's been trying to do it recently albeit not entirely convincingly so he's stepped it up a notch. Look at Mayweather & Broner it's obviously where the money is especially in the US.

[damianhucker1]

Haye tweeted yesterday " Tried everything to get Fury in the ring , even offered him a 50/50 split but he obviously doesnt fancy it" (or something close to those words)

Fury replied along the lines of " David Haye just outed me , i cant buy the caravan i want with 50% , silly , i want more like 80/20 "

this is true these so called fighters and promoters that don't want to fight or are only willing to fight someone they can definitely beat are killing the sport. I don't blame Fury or haye particularly but this is just part of an underlying problem with the sport.

[Old bones Ian]

Anyone remember Alex Garcia turning down a million to face Foreman, as he thought he'd get more with a title shot, then got himself KO'd by Mike Dixon for chump change.

[Chambers2]

What a cunnt!!! He gets everyone excited about the fight, but it looks like he had no intentions of fighting him or is he just that thick that he thinks he deserves 80%

First he avoids Price and now he avoids Haye

[GlobalBox]

He lost a six figure pay day with Price by buggering about and then Price got beat, if he is not careful it will happen with Haye as well.

Personally think this is just an entertaining little bit of will they wont they by both men, fights on for me, far too much money on offer for both men for them to turn this down
12 weeks training, 9-15 minutes work on the night, several million pounds split between them, you would have to be barmy to turn this down

Yes i think you are right though a lot of boxers do avoid each other. after all fury needs the cash and so what if he gets knocked out he will be back in with a title shot inside 18 months he would be barmy not to fight haye he is just trying to up the ante and wind up interest in the fight.

[SteveDow]

Unbelievable demand from Fury. Haye is the big draw in this fight and he should be biting his hand off to take a 50-50 split. As others have said, the only logical reason he is turning this down is because he knows he'll lose the fight and doesn't fancy the job.

This fight could well gross in excess of £10m and to turn down around a £5m purse seems ludicrous.

As always the boxing fans suffer by not seeing what they want.

Maybe but look at what happened with Mayweather and Pacman. I fully agree that Fury in particular would be being utterly stupid to pass this opportunity by but it has a habit of happening for whatever reason in boxing.
