Comments Thread For: Booth: If Klitschko Beats Solis, Haye Will Face Him in May

[Russian Crushin]

You really dont seem to be getting it do you? Who the *** cares if they're "calling out" Vitali? Haye has "called out" the Klitschkos for years but never had the guts to actually get in the ring.

The issue is that Haye claimed Wlad would not be ready after the Chisora April fight to fight him in July.

Yet now they are claiming they will fight Vitali in May after his March fight against Solis.

Do you not see the contradiction here?

There's no point

Dude is a troll alt

Well apart from some random tabloid saying it no one else is. Secondly do you not see the contradiction between most Wlad fans saying he could prepare in 9 weeks and its his choice so wouldn't the same logic apply to Vitali, plus Vitali is far better than Wlad. Also this would also be a unification bout which would mean Haye might not have to do his mandatory.

Yeah I must be a troll if I don't agree with someone who is Russian about their biased views of an eastern European fighter.

Um....hello? Wlad is the HW Champ. That would also be a unification bout.

Maybe Vitali can be ready but then Hayes whole reasoning for the Wlad fight falling through is flawed. And Wlad was the one he was negotiating with first.

seems like haye doesnt have a mandatory in place then.

chageav is not allowed by the wba or british board of boxing to fight in uk.

this no 2 ranked guy has hand injury.

no idea what deal is with povetkin,maybe he has problems with atlas and with saureland??.

i imagine if it was made,haye would not take any fight beforehand.

but still not sure how this work out realistically for vitali hay.

to have week ish off after vitali solis,then about 7-9 weeks training camp?(said from original interiew,second half,late may the fight would be set for)

unless of course,vitali agrees with his brother that Haye is not a special fight,and that both dont need long traning camps and are always in shape?.

it woudl be ok if vitali agrees to that,fair enough if he needs longer camp,and if there were injuries/cuts during solis fight,but i doubt it with how fat solis is and vitali just being able to dominate from the outside and avoid getting hit properly with his lean back pump the long punches from distance.

and i also think if dthey did need to have 12 weeks camp for both,that haye did say he had may and or june for his fight dates,so it would be mid june instead of late may.

im not getting too excited,i imagine vitali wont want to fight for another few months,
and haye will end up fighting chageav in america,if allowed by us boxing commissions,or povektin in uk.(possibly no 2 rank guy if hes fit to fight if not chag or povetkin.

Maybe he had to face the mandatory because the unification was in July and may get leeway from WBO if unification is in May?

Haye didn't have to fight his mandatory before July. The WBA (Haye is the WBA title holder, not WBO) had already agreed to the July unification and all Haye had to do was sign now for the July fight, and the WBA would have backed it. And the Chisora fight would not have prevented Haye for signing now to fight Wlad in July - there are many precedents for people signing to fight despite one of them already having another fight signed in the meantime. Haye was just desperately looking for a way to get out of fighting the Klitschkos while still being able to convince his gullible fanbase that he wasn't ducking. It's as simple as that.

And as for his claim that he wants to fight Vitali in May, anyone who takes that claim seriously really needs psychiatric help.

Thanks Captain Obvious I was unaware Wlad was HW Champ actually his main reason was because it would force him to do his mandatory. It looks like the Chagaev fight won't happen because he can't get cleared to fight anywhere. So he could sign to fight Vitali right after his fight with Solis.

So why couldnt he sign to fight Wlad after the Chisora fight, Captain ******?
