By William Mackay: IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko is amused by the fact that WBA heavyweight champion David Haye is unwilling to fight his older brother WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko for some reason. With Wladimir unavailable to fight Haye now that Wladimir is lookint to fight Dereck Chisora on April 30th and Tomasz Adamek in September, Haye isn’t showing interest in fighting Vitali, the Klitschko brother with the better chance of being free for Haye during 2011.

In Dan Rafael’s spoke on this subject in his twitter earlier today, saying “One thing Wlad reminded me about was that Ducker [Haye] would not fight Vitali. Was not willing. Only would fight Wladimir.” This makes me wonder whether Haye was ever serious about wanting to fight both of the Klitschko brothers before retiring. I always had a feeling that Haye was only interested in fighting Wladimir, and that if push came to shove, he would come up with an excuse for why he couldn’t fight Vitali. With Wladimir now off the table and no other good money fights available, Haye’s feelings about not wanting to fight Vitali are looking pretty obvious now with him not even mentioning Vitali’s name and instead talking about fighting the less the popular Ruslan Chagaev.

It looks like Haye wants no part of having to tangle with the steel-chinned Vitali, and that’s interesting to see Haye clearly avoiding him. Wladimir certainly has noticed it and he must be having a good laugh about it with Vitali. At 39, you would think that Vitali would be old enough for Haye to feel good about his chances of beating him. But evidently Haye doesn’t like his chances because he’s not saying a word about Vitali.
