By Sean McDaniel: Former WBA heavyweight champion David Haye (25-2, 23 KO’s) says that WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko (43-2, 40 KO’s) still hasn’t contacted him about putting together a fight between the two. Haye wants Vitali to contact his management so they can get this fight put together as soon as possible.

Speaking with the German daily Die Welt, Haye said “I’ll know him [Vitali] out, I’ll smash his jaw…It doesn’t matter where you are, I’ll fight you on the moon…[If he wants to fight] then he should get in touch with my management and get the contract in the bag. He has my contact details. I am waiting for him and urge him on. No fight at heavyweight would generate more publcity than Haye against the old man Klitschko. I am the most popular heavyweight on the planet and with me he will earn the most money.”

Haye wants the fight but I’m not so certain Vitali is ready to fight Haye right now. Vitali is talking about wanting to fight again in November, and that’s too soon for Haye. You can’t market a fight that quickly, and Haye will need much more time to get ready because he’s been idle since suffering a 12 round decision loss against Wladimir Klitschko last July.

Haye injured his right little toe before that fight, and he feels that the injury prevented him from being able to drive off of the foot. Haye had problems with Wladimir’s movement in the fight, and had to chase him around a lot of the time. Haye finally caught up to Wladimir in the 12th round and hurt him with a big right hand, but time ran out before Haye could add anything else.

Haye was frustrated by Wladimir’s constant clinching in the fight, saying “Wladimir ran away when I tried to hit him or he held onto me and pulled me to the ground. unfortunately, the referee had to go through all that cheekiness. Vitali has indeed got more balls, but he is also a scared rabbit.”

Wladimir did do a lot of shoving and pulling on Haye to get him to fall down in the fight. Wladimir was penalized once for his rough stuff but probably should have lost points on three or four more occasions to get him to stop with the extracurricular activities. But the fight was in Germany where Wladimir lives and is a big star, so it was expected. If the fight had taken place in England and Haye hadn’t come into the bout without any injuries it might have been a much different story. However, the good thing about a potential Vitali vs. Haye fight is Vitali already said he’s open to fighting Haye in England.
