Klitschko-Haye offer details

[Evil Abed]

By Karl Freitag

The David Haye camp has stated that Haye does want to fight Wladimir, but they cannot accept certain “financial details.” What are those details? “The offer was 50%/50%, no options,” Wladimir Klitschko advisor Shelly Finkel confirmed to *********.com. Finkel added that he hasn’t heard from David Haye’s manager Adam Booth in three weeks after initially speaking to him half-a-dozen times.

It seems the main hang-up was that the Haye camp wanted to keep 100% of the UK TV revenue and give Wladimir 100% of the German TV revenue. The Klitschko Camp wanted to put all the TV money in one pot and split it 50/50%, which they consider more than fair since Wladimir would be risking three belts to Haye’s one, and Wlad is widely considered to be the world’s true heavyweight champion.

Wladimir will now defend his belts against Alexander Povetkin on September 11 in Frankfurt, Germany, while Haye is expected to face Audley Harrison in an all-British affair in November.

The Haye offer makes total sense :S

[B.U.R.N.E.R]

Im done with Haye but I agree on the TV thing.

[Spray_resistant]

Wow real serious issue here for him to not fight Wlad over if that was the case.

[Versatility]

That was a fair deal Haye's camp proposed..

[Steelhammer2011]

The Haye camp (Haye, Booth, Sauerland, etc.) are all proven liars who have ZERO credibility. Take anything they say with a grain of salt.

Notice how the Haye camp is now finally opening up to the media AFTER Wlad signed to fight Povetkin. What an absolute joke.

Wlad offered Haye a great 50/50 deal with no future options.

Haye really only deserves about 20-25% MAX of the split. Wlad is the IBF/WBO/IBO/RING Unified Heavyweight Champion of the World, he's the superior fighter and his resume is 1,000,000 times better than Haye's weak resume. Haye is a glass chinned fraud with a worthless paper title. Wlad destroyed the REAL WBA HW Champ Ruslan Chagaev who clearly beat Valuev in impressive fashion. Haye ran like a frightened little girl from Valuev the whole fight, set the all time record for fewest punches thrown in a 12 round fight and got a bull**** gift decision. Even the biased British commentators had Valuev winning the fight. Wladimir Klitschko is the rightful WBA Heavyweight Champ.

50/50 with no future options was a great deal for that ***** Haye and
the 50/50 German/UK TV deal was more than fair.

Fuck that coward Haye. He is a ***** and a disgrace to boxing.

[Flawless*]

I agree with Haye.

Floyd took zero of the UK TV revenue when he fought Hatton. Wladimir wants the income from the UK when he barely is known there

is the UK TV revenue reallly that much better than the german TV revenue?

[Boxing Scene]

In other words, Haye, once again, does not want the fight. It's that simple. I can't see any other reason, because there's always been some excuse or another. If it's not an injury, its a slave contract, or a TV rights, or Harrison.

[jrosales13]

Is there more money in the UK Television rights than the Germany television rights?

I guess so...
