No Klitschko VS. David Haye.. for now..

Again, David Haye(25-1 23KO) and Wladimir Klitschko(55-3 49 KO) have agreed to disagree. Bernd Boente, Klitschko's manager announced that their talks have fell apart and Wladimir will be once again fighting Derek Chisora (14-0 9KO) on April 30th.

The talks fell apart apparently because of television scheduling.

Unfortunately, this just makes boxing fans care less and less about the heavyweight division. Eventually, when these two fight there will be some excitement. Until then, who really is interested in what David Haye has to say? Who is really interested in watching Klitschko demolish another challenger?

There are only a few fighters I want to see in the heavyweight division. If Haye was really serious about not getting the public's attention he should fight Adamek. They are both smaller men for their weight division and Adamek has proven that he can fight with all the big boys. However, I think Adamek is in the same position as Haye. Why take a hard fight when you can just fight nobodies (Audley Harrison, Vinny Madalone, etc) and make a good payday in your home country?

Until we as fight fans STOP paying and watching these types of fights they simply will continue with their paths. Paths that unfortunately don't cross.
