Haye and allegedly

Having watched the Haye Chisora post fight press conference - oh yeah I'm cool - it strikes me that Warren and Haye were getting on pretty well and complimentary toward each other, something I haven't seen before and both said that they wouldn't rule out the prospect of Warren promoting Haye's next fight.

Given that Groves is already co promoted by Warren and Haye it looks to me like Haye is up for a closer working relationship with Warren, both would get a lot out of it as Warren is less likely to be bulled by Bonte and K2 and Haye is a good asset for any promoter. Just a thought.

I dont think Haye or Booth were bullied by K2, far from it. I thought they drove a hard bargain. They will go wherever is best for them, and in the current climate regarding TV, it may be with Fwank. SKY were very upset with Haye's last two PPV 'performances'.

Can you elaborate on why Sky was 'very upset' with Haye's performance against Audley?

OK, then, the whole "event". Neither of them did anything for two rounds and then it ended! It got slaughtered in the media, too. It was basically a farce from start to finish and Hayemaker was the promoter.

I cant imagine Sky being upset with Haye for any of his PPV perfromances. They made a fcuk load of money from them, and they are as corporate as it gets. It's all about the bottom line for Sky

So are you blaming Haye, or do you blame Harrison for freezing oor Sky for bigging it up as a 50/50 fight when everyone knows it was a mis match?

To blame Haye for that fight is like saying it was Manny Pacquiao's fault for the Hatton fight being a farce.

Not at all. That was a genuine fight, on paper. This never was, though to Haye's credit, he said all along it was a mismatch. It was a cynical money making exercise all round which put a lot of casuals off the sport. And he managed to piss off the fans that stayed loyal with the non-performance against Wlad, after the build up. The two year long build up i might add.
