He wants more than one round surely they arent near his level maybe Brewster might fight him trilogy but really dissapointed feel sorry for the people who bought tickets and booked hotels and stuff worse news for them but still really annoyed would of been a great fight

I still smell a rat in all of this!!!

Just spoke to another very reliable source who has said the fight is defo "Off" - however he covered that by stating someone will get seriously sued if its proved to be wrong!!!

was thinking they might get a british heavyweight so the fans going over wont lose as much money

Looks like the fights off from what Spud is saying and ye a British HW will probably fight but there are not a lot of good fighters out there is there? Maybe Rogan but doubt it his eye would still be bad

I don't even think I'll bother leaving Berlin to watch Wlad Jab someones head off............ I hope they just call the thing off.

I hope it's not off, I was really looking forward to the fight but If Wlad is seriously looking for a replacement then surely Valuev is ready for action!

B*llocks!!!

Don't pin this on me!!! - all I am saying is I have 2 very reliable sources - one is saying it is off - one from Team Haye has denied it - so one of my sources has let me down!!!

Mind you the bloke who said the fight was off said - someone is seriously in the sh*t for either spouting b*llocks or revealing the news too soon!!!

It's definately off guys............

hopefully itl be rescheduled for around september

Thanks for hurting the sport of boxing, David Haye!

Shit! I was so looking forward to this.

It smells bad though!

Why criticise Haye ?

I would want to be 100% perfect for the biggest fight of my life, especially if millions are watching and there is 60,000+ in attendance.

Takes guts to pull out..not vice versa !

I don't think it can be unless Wlad drops the IBF.

Doesn't he have to face Povetkin around that time as mandatory? Or maybe not

So is the whole bill off? Are the folk who were going gonna still make the trip? Or am I gonna have to take the bird away for the weekend?

i agree with gomez if he took the fight and got beat and then told everyone about his back hed just be accused of making excuses

I am genuinally gutted for David Haye - top bloke and he will be devastated at this news - its bad news all round for the team.

Shit happens.
The rescheduling is gonna be a nightmare.

Bunce said they're looking for September, so I guess the bill could still go ahead in June?

Very disappointing and curious. Haye posted only 5 hours ago from his Twitter account with a link to a Setanta Sports news story concerning the fight. Either he's been injured very suddenly or he wasn't expecting an announcement to say the fight was off.

Yeah I'm heading out to watch it. But the only reason is because of the Haye fight. I thought I'd kill two birds with one stone, alas this is no longer the case...... Oh well it's the nature of the sport and all that........ just couldn't of happened to a better fight!

Curios why a member of Haye's camp said it was still on still annoyed its off though really thought this could be the best HW fight for a while
