I see he wore a T-shirt to the press conference - is showed him standing in the ring - holding the severed heads of both the Klitchko brothers- Wladimir was not too impressed with it and has stated that he now wants to punish him, make him feel the pain - then knock him out in the twelfth.....

Vladimir negotiated a THREE fight rematch clause in the contract! If Vladimir loses, Haye must fight him again, then fight his brother! Doesn`t sound like a very confident man to me. I still think Klitschkos size and power will be too much for Haye though. Should be a great fight though, I can see each man hurt or even knocked down.

Great T shirt alright don! Can you buy them on e-bay?? Klitchko was not impressed at all. The more hype about this fight the better and if it lives up to its billing it will do the division a world of good. Regarding the THREE fight clause in the contract - whoever is in Hayes corner should have their head examined. If Haye loses will he get a rematch? If not that is a scandalous deal for Haye. In my opinion the Klitchkos are one of the reasons why the heavyweight division is where it is. They might be good boxers but the have no personality and no flare. They will never be considered as one of the greats. What do other people think?

I think both Klitschko brothers are excellent fighters. I think its a bit harsh saying they are one of the reasons heavyweight boxing in in a bad state. Vitali is an exciting fighter to watch, he just doesn`t have anyone to fight against! Until Haye that is. I mean his fight against Lewis was excellent and Corrie Sanders was an excellent slugfest. I think what Haye is doing is great for the division. His antics although very annoying for Wladimir, are putting heavyweight boxing back in the headlines and that can only be a good thing. Although the three match contract sounds a bit odd, remember Haye isn`t even entitled to a title shot! He isn`t the number one contender so Vladimir doesn`t have to fight him at all. I know I said earlier that such a contract could show his lack of confidence, but i`m sure he wouldn`t take the fight if he thought hewas going to lose... I think Wladimir will win in the middle rounds after an explosive opening from Haye!

I am not questioning the ability of either of the Klitchkos. Vitali has fought some savage fights.However now, your right, there is no one to fight in the division.The Lewis fight was a cracker but that was nearly 5 years ago. If Haye were to win he would be loved in his home country but his antics would make him a hate figure across the water and people would love to see him get knocked out or in other words create bigger interest in the division. Decent fighters from cruiser weight might go up a division to challenge him. I think if Klitchko were to win( and I think he will)it would not attract the same media attention if Haye were to.

I think a Haye win would be better for the division as well. It would set up a potentially explosive encounter against Vitali Klitschko. We would be a step closer to a unified heavyweight champion. ie the winner of Vitali Haye could fight the WBA champ whoever that will be. The alternative is a Wladimir win, Haye drops out of contention and we don`t see a unified champion for a long time to come. It`s a pity the Klitschkos are brothers, i`d love to see a fight between the two of them.

Klitschko has called Haye an embarressment to boxing and said "Hell get paid back with pain in the fight and at the press conference afterwards Ill remind him what he said and hell eat his words and apologise." He really didn`t like that shirt!!
