By Scott Gilfoid: WBA heavyweight champion David Haye wants a fight with IBF/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko (55-3, 49 KO’s) so bad he can taste it. The guy won’t rest until he gets his wish to fight Wladimir. Okay, so what happens if Haye gets that fight in 2011, and Wladimir just literally rips Haye apart, tearing him up, humiliating him in front of millions and leaving his spent carcass on the ring canvas at Wembley Stadium in front of 90,000 rabid Haye fans. Where does Haye go, besides the nearest hospital? I mean if he gets destroyed by Wladimir, hasn’t he exhausted his usefulness in boxing?

It’s kind of like a big salmon that has just finished spawning and there’s nothing left for it to do but just float away and croak. What will Haye do if he fails at the one thing that he’s been bragging about 24/7 all these years. What’s the point of carrying on in the sport if Wladimir tears him limb by limb in front of thousands of his loyal fans at Wembley? Does Haye continue to box and hope he can lure someone like John Ruiz, Monte Barrett, Audley Harrison or Nikokay Valuev to fight him again so he can regain his past glory or does Haye hang his head down in shame, and slink off into the sunset?

I would like to think that Haye would muster up the courage to keep fighting with the hopes of giving it a shot against Wladimir’s older brother Vitali Klitschko, but I don’t think Haye would make that move. I see him as the slink away type, the type that would go live up on the top of a mountain and hide away in a cave for 10 to 20 years writing rambling letters and talking to himself endlessly about this or that.
