Vitali Klitschko: I don’t understand why money is David Haye’s only motivation

The current WBC Heavyweight Champion, Vitali Klitschko, has accused the former WBA heavyweight champion, David Haye, of only caring about cash because the two sides are now going far apart on the financial terms.

Vitali will take on the Del Boy, Dereck Chisora, this weekend at the Olympiahalle, Munich in Bayern but he has plans of returning back to the ring as early as the end of May in case if he wins the event.

The 40-year-old, Vitali, who holds a record of winning 43 of his 45 professional fights, including 40 of his wins coming by the way of a knockout, insisted Haye has a chance now to regain his image but he is ruin it for money.

“David Haye can be strong again,” Vitali said. “He can be the world champion again. He can fight me, the oldest and weakest of the Klitschko brothers. Haye has a chance to get back into the game. I don’t understand why money is his only motivation.”

Haye, who is also known as the Hayemaker, walked away from the sport in November after suffering a humiliating defeat to Vitali’s younger brother, Wladimir Klitschko, in their highly-anticipated unification bout for the heavyweight titles on July 2, 2011 at the Imtech Arena in Hamburg. However, the Brit always said he would make a comeback, if he gets a chance against any of the Klitschko brothers but now when the possibility of fighting Vitali is there, Haye is demanding a lot of money.

“I wanted to fight him last time but I flipped a coin with Wladimir and he won. I was happy when Wladimir beat Haye because it brought all the heavyweight title belts into our family. But I was also a bit upset because, after all the bad words he used against us, I wanted to beat him up. He has no excuses not to fight me now,” Vitali added.

Well, all said and done, let’s see if Haye changes his mind and sets up a Vitali clash because this fight can certainly put him back under the main lights.
