David Haye sure Fury just playing around

. No comments.

Legendary English boxer David Haye doesn’t believe that his countryman Tyson Fury is too serious about getting inside the ring with him. Haye, a former two division world champion believes that Fury is only using him as a tool to make a name for himself and isn’t that keen to finalize the deal that will see the two Englishmen go head to head with a £ 10 million blockbuster fight late in September. The fight is being mooted to take place in Manchester or London.

According to the 33 year old Haye, Fury has already called out several fighters in the past and came very close to securing some of those fights as well and in turn, huge paydays against the likes of Wladimir Klitschko and David Price to name a few. However, he managed to find some excuse or the other to back out and walk away from those and this is something that is making David Haye inclined to think that he is being used in the same manner.

According to Haye, Fury, who has a record of 21-0 with 15 knockout wins under his belt called out David Price, then announced he would fight Wladimir and then named a few others as well. But he didn’t end up fighting anyone he called out and now, he apparently wants to take him on. He is however unsure that the fight will happen but he hopes that it does happen.

David Haye mentioned that Fury is a guy who always says he wants a certain fight and then shies away from it. But he stated that he is eager for the fight to happen although by his own admission, the future of the fight doesn’t depend on him but on Fury and the people who advise him on things.

Former two division world champion boxer David Haye is scheduled to make his come back to the boxing ring on the 29th of June in Manchester and although there is still speculation as to who he would face in that fight, one fighter who can be safely ruled out of the running is Manuel Charr.

And according to a section of the English media, Polish boxer Andrew Wawrzyk, who is currently ranked 7th by the World Boxing Association or the WBA and 14th by the World Boxing Council or WBC, is now the frontrunner to take on the Englishman. The 25 year old Polish boxer is still to taste defeat in 27 professional fights so far where as Haye has a record of 26-2 in his professional career.

The 32 year old David Haye is a former world Heavyweight champion as well as world Cruiserweight champion. According to the representatives of Haye, he is looking to fight someone from where; a win would put him in the position of mandatory opponent for the two Klitschko brothers, who between them hold all four of the World Heavyweight Championships.

Charr has been gunning for Haye for quite some time and he even posted a picture of himself holding a severed head, apparently of the British Heavyweight on Twitter. The Syrian boxer, who is currently based in Germany also interrupted a press conference after the fight between Haye and Derrick Chisora last July and called the Englishman out, promising to go down the line with him.

But David Haye is interested only in taking on either one of the Klitschko brothers, both of whom have shunned him in the past and are continually doing so now as well while Haye keeps trying to land one of the biggest matches he will have in his career.

English boxing legend Ricky Hatton believes David Haye will not make the same mistake he did on his return to the ring and be blown away. The Hitman, who took a three year sabbatical from the sport, returned last year against Ukrainian boxer Vyacheslav Senchenko and suffered a brutal beating at his hands. And the former World Boxing Association or the WBA Heavyweight Championship holder Haye is set to announce his opponent for his comeback fight after not entering the ring after his win against Dereck Chisora last year.

His fight on the 29th of June at the fabled Manchester Arena is set to take place almost exactly a year after that bitter fight against his countryman. And Hatton, who is a former two-division world champion himself stated that David Haye is returning to the ring for all the right reasons and added that there is absolutely no way in which he will want to end his career as a former Heavyweight champion. He stated that when he decided to make his comeback to the ring, he wanted to prove to himself and the world that he still had the fight in him.

And he added that when he suffered that brutal defeat at the hands of Senchenko, everyone, including him understood what the truth was. He admitted that he doesn’t believe that Haye will suffer a defeat like he did, in fact, far from it.

Ricky Hatton went on to add that knowing David Haye, he wouldn’t go for any old fighter he could knock over with his eyes closed. He believes Haye will want a real test and as a result, he will go for a fight against someone who is right up there and this will also mean getting closer to that shot at the world title.
