By Chris Williams: It looks as if IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko’s patience for talking about World Boxing Association heavyweight champion David Haye has run out. In an interview today with Sky Sports News, Klitschko, 33, had this to say to the interviewer when the subject of Haye was brought up:

“I actually don’t want to give you any comments on David Haye because he bailed out twice, from my fight and my brother’s fight.”I’m actually tired of giving comments about David Haye. He’s immature, he’s not serious enough to take a challenge, and this is it.”

Wow, that must hurt a little for Haye. Klitschko, when he mentions Haye bailing twice, he’s referring to the two fights in which Haye had lined up with both brothers, only to see Haye back out from one reason or another. In the case of Wladimir, Haye supposed to fight him and made it all the way up to three weeks before the fight when Haye suddenly pulled out complaining of a back injury before their scheduled June 20th fight. Wladimir, with little other choice but to find a replacement at the last moment, selected Ruslan Chagaev to fill in for Haye.

Klitschko ended up destroying Chagaev in a 9th round stoppage in a one-sided fight from start to finish. Wladimir wasn’t happy with all the trash talking that Haye had done in their press conferences going into the June 20th fight, and wanted to give Haye a beating he would never forget. However, when Haye pulled out of the fight, Wladimir saw Haye as someone that wasn’t serious about really fighting and just wanted to talk.

Next, Haye went after Wladimir’s older brother, World Boxing Council heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko. During the negotiation process with Vitali, Haye abruptly backed out and signed for a fight with then WBA heavyweight champion Nikolay Valuev, saying later that he wasn’t happy with the way the negotiations had been going with Vitali.

The second pull out left the Klitschko brothers turned off towards Haye, as well as a number of boxing fans who saw Haye as someone who didn’t want to step up to the plate for a real challenge. By picking the 7-foot Valuev, a weak puncher who had looked poor in his last fight against 46-year-old Evander Holyfield in 2008, it gave some people the impression that Haye was cherry picking his opponents to make sure he could find someone that he has a good chance of beating.

From the sounds of Wladimir’s comments, he’s still a little upset with Haye about the lost fights. However, Wladimir should see the bright side about this. If Wladimir – or his brother Vitali – had fought Haye earlier this year before he captured the WBA heavyweight crown, the payday would be much smaller than it will be if Haye can get by his mandatory challenger John Ruiz and fight one of the Klitschko brothers in 2010.

A fight at that time might bring in a huge payday for either of the Klitschko brothers, if what Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer says is true about this fight being a huge potential money maker. Right now, Haye still hasn’t been seen much by the U.S. audiences other than his fights against Monte Barrett and Valuev, so it’s hard to believe that a Haye-Klitschko fight will be as huge as Schaefer thinks it will be.

It could be, but it might take a really impressive win over Ruiz for that to happen. Haye’s 12 round majority decision win over Valuev on November 7th was far from an interesting fight to watch from a fan’s perspective. Haye is going to have to look much better than that against beatable competition for Schaefer’s dreams to be realized.
