Haye v Vitali OFF, could now face Wladimir instead!

[DIRT SUGAR]

Get him in there with James Toney!!!

Maskaev's a good shout too. Or Jameel McCline. A chance to bash up a mahoosive guy who's been in with the other big dudes.

I can understand why Haye is keen to crack on against the Klits. Every fight he takes at heavyweight is a big risk, one solid smack on the chops, and his dream could be over - so the less fights he has between now and either of the big fekkers the better. However, he must also stay active so he has to find some opponents with not too much to offer and keep himself ticking over.

Anyone else find the inactivity of these "one fight a year" superstars incredibly frustrating? It doesn't build things anymore for me, it just makes you fed up with it all.

And its not doing Haye the power of good. I was dissapointed in a few ways with his display against Barrett. We all know about Haye's power, impressive he did it against the normally durable Barratt - but thats all he did, all this stalking and telegraphing isn't going to work against the Klitchsko's. It might work against a slow Barratt and a chinny Enzo Maccrinelli - but he needs to get back to his boxing.

I want to see the Haye that dismanteld and bemused Williams.

Yes. :(

Get Solis or Toney on the phone! That'd bring a bit of interest to Haye's next fight.

Haye targets Wladimir Klitschko

David Haye's bout with Vitali Klitschko has been cancelled but the Briton could still take on Klitschko's brother.

Vitali had agreed to fight on 20 June in London but the Ukrainian looks set to make a mandatory defence of his WBC heavyweight title on 31 March instead.

IBF and WBO champion Wladimir Klitschko has a proposed defence against Chris Arreola in March but that has not been finalised and he could face Haye.

"It looks like it's up to Wladimir," Haye's spokesman Elliot Worsell said.

Former world cruiserweight champion Haye, 28, won his first fight as a heavyweight against Monte Barrett in November, and could line up a bout with Wladimir within the next fortnight.

"David doesn't mind which Klitschko he fights and is quietly confident he'll now get Wladimir," Worsell said. "We'll see what happens in the next week or so."

Vitali's mandatory defence against challenger Juan Carlos Gomez had always been an issue with the Ukrainian agreeing to fight Haye despite the WBC maintaining he must grant the Cuban a shot first.

It looks like it's upto Wlad Klitschko then...... Haye or Arreola???

It's good to see that Elliott Worsell is doing well for himself, he used to post on the forums as 'Get In The Ring' many moons ago

I think he needs a 10 round competitive fight at heavy before a world title challenge anyway.

[Bomber 1]

I hope he get's Wladimir, I think Toney is all wrong for him and the Arreola fight is a no win situation!!

David should fight Wlad Klitschko or just take an easy good looking fight similar to the Barrett fight until Wlad is ready to fight him!!

Valuev was good in that 300 though wasn't he. Once he got the chains off.
