RE: Haye v Wladimir Klitschko its on
Lets not get too excited as we all know these two Ukrainian heavies have the ability to change their minds more than a woman in Topshop, & why it has to be in Germany & not Las Vegas is just them being a bunch of tools without a box to put themselves in, it's the WBA, IBF and WBO world heavyweight championships & fights like this should be in Vegas on religious grounds, this is just another example of the fact that big time boxing is on the decline & even the Yanks can't stop it, David Haye coming out with a retirement plan when he hasn't even got both feet under the table is just a fuckin joke.
Now I don't wanna upset my buddy lindor but cage fighter Georges St-Pierre the UFC welterweight champion for the past 4 years, winning it then losing it only to regain it in impressive style now often talks about going into a fight not to fight to defend his title but to fight to gain a legacy within the sport as a whole, now thats what being a champion is all about, Haye & Khan take note!!!
Anyways hopfully 'The Haymaker' will show his quality & finish off this debate once & for all as I don't see Vitali coming out of retirement to fight for the honour of the family name so it looks like this will be Haye's penultimate fight as I think he'll want to go out with a big send off at the O2 or Wembley arena in the Battle of Britain or whatever they'll call it against Dereck Chisora in December???

All this negotiating between Haye and the Klitchkos has beena total joke and dispite being a big haye fan for a long time i've gotten quite pissed off with the whole thing will still only believe it when the bell rings.
Haye has long talked about retiring early when he first moved up to heavy, he says he's will have been boxing twenty years and it will be time to move on. He is also quite realistic everyone knows the heavyweight division is weak and after the klitchko's they are very few big names, solis, adamek, povetkin are good fighters but there not great few outside boxing fans will have heard of them and beating them will not make Haye a legend. after one or two fights against klits he will have probably made £20-30m so little financial motivation with few other big pay days out there to keep fighting on.
Comparing Haye with GSP doesn't work boxing and mma are different in Haye has a choice over his oponent especially as he promotes himself, GSP fights who the ufc tell him fight he has little choice in the matter. also Haye fighting in his second weight class and although doesn't fight often (this annoys me a bit) takes the fight that gets him to the end goal in the least amount of fights, smart moves not just fighting for the sake of it.
Finally Vitali isn't retired he fights solis at the end of the month, i'd think if all goes to plan he'll want to fight Wlad in summer to become number one heavyweight and seal it with a win in october over vitali to retire Undisputed champion

Not sure what i wrote for u to say that Mitchell lad lol I agree with 199.Making 30 million pounds and retiring at the top whilst ur still young then setting off into the sunset makes sense in anybodys book.
The Heavyweight division is a complete joke.David would have no credible challengers for his belts..The brothers are the only competition Haye really has.So when he beats them both that's it.Hang the gloves up.
He won't have a lasting legacy of being a long term Undisputed Heavyweight champion though.
He obviously dosn't care about that.So fair play to him.
