Wladimir Klitschko Gives David Haye a March 21 Deadline

[Dave Rado]

A real boxing fan can appreciate Wlad because he's highly technically skilled, and most people enjoy his 46 KOs.

Some of my favorites knockouts are his ones against Brock, Jefferson, Barrett, Bostice (who wept afterwards), and Shufford.

C'mon, anybody who has brutally KOed so many opponents is an exciting fighter!

I appreciate his skills, but I don't appreciate his over-cautious approach. He sometimes goes several rounds at a time without throwing a single right hand or combination. His defence sometimes consists mainly of slapping down his opponents' punches. He often looks mechanical and rarely shows real flair. The knock-outs are exciting, as long as you don't miss them because you've already fallen asleep by the time they happen. I believe he became over-cautious because he kept being decked, and I can understand that, but I don't have to like it. But one reason why people would like him to fight Haye or Arreola is that they think he would be forced into a real fight against either of those two - regardless of who wins, they think those would be exciting fights.

I don't care who is holding up this fight at this time, I just want it to happen. Haye needs to realize he has a one chance shot at instantly becoming the first or second best heavyweight in the world with a win over Wlad and should be willing to sacrifice a little in order to get this one done. On the other hand, Wladimir needs to realize that there are not allot of options out there right now and the fans want this fight despite Haye not being completely credible at heavyweight yet. Both sides need to bend a little to get this done for boxing. The heavyweight division is the cornerstone of the sport and it's poor recent fights have allot to do with the lull boxing has been in. The best needs to fight the best and the cream of the crop will eventually surface to dominate. Wlad is the closest thing we have to a dominant champion at this time and he needs to be in exciting fights so he is recognized as such around the world. I personally know he can be 'the man' but he needs to prove it to everyone else and that's what it's all about.

THIS IS FROM DAVID HAYE'S MANAGER: Adam Booth

Former world cruiserweight champion David ‘The Hayemaker?Haye has offered to box in Germany on a K2 Promotions show in order to revive negotiations for a summer showdown with WBO and IBF world heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko.



Originally scheduled to take place on June 20 at Stamford Bridge in London, Haye’s eagerly anticipated duel with Klitschko has hit a series of snags in recent weeks, and now appears on the brink of collapse.



Haye’s trainer and manager Adam Booth is willing to sacrifice home territory in the hope of kick-starting the most important and exciting heavyweight contest in years.



“I want to make this absolutely clear, because unfortunately the KMG manager, Bernd Bonte, seems to be taking things too personally and trying to confuse the issue,?begun Booth. “The one-sided interview he did with biased keyboard warrior Dan Rafael (ESPN.com) ?a man who has shown a longstanding dislike for David Haye - has distorted some of the facts.



“David will fight Wladimir anywhere they choose, and give them the two rematch options they have requested.



“In regards to the rematches clause, I am baffled as to why Bonte seems to have forgotten our last conversation about this. We said they could have the two rematches they wanted, which effectively means David’s next three fights could be in Germany against either Wladimir or Vitali Klitschko.



“What they’re also demanding is that if David were to win against Wladimir and then have a mandatory challenger obligation (non-Klitschko) he would have to immediately vacate the title he won from Wladimir. This would mean David could win three fights against the Klitschko brothers and still not be in a position to officially call himself heavyweight champion of the world at the end of it.?



Booth continued: “They (the Klitschkos) would make exactly the same money in Germany as they would in England because we have dropped our figure to go to Germany. If they take a proposed fight with Chris Arreola, they will make substantially less. So people can now work this out for themselves.



“The original deal to co-promote the event would never work because of unacceptable terms. However, we’re willing to sacrifice a little on our side just to get this fight made.



“David doesn’t want to dodge Wladimir and just pick and choose his way through boring, fringe contenders. He wants to fight the best and restore some excitement to the heavyweight division. We only hope Wladimir feels the same way.?

After reading this....The question is why Wladimir hasn’t signed to fight Haye as of yet?

It seems like the only fight of Wladimir's you've ever watched is the Ibragimov fight.

If not, then you're just obviously just a hater.

I wonder about one guy who always talks about the klitschkos.I won't mention his name but he knows who i'm talking about.you hype them up so much I not only think you are either ukranian or gay. Maybe both considering you were talking about eastern European mens endowment a few weeks ago...ring a bell buddy? You hype these brothers up so much I'm sure you have their posters on your bedroom wall & your klitschko pink g-string on.I laugh it sounds like you would get on your knees & suck them off if you could.I thought bc stood for British Colombia not big ....! LOL! You make me laugh klitschko nuthugger.

Wlad should just move on, Haye is not worth the aggravation.

The Rahman fight wasn't exactly a barn burner either Tunney...

I know your a fan, but you have to see how some can see him boring to watch. I'm a big Hopkins fan, but I can see how many find his style un-appealing.
