Klitschko-Hayes bout in works
Posted: Wednesday May 14, 2008 08:00AM ET
David Haye has held talks with world heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko over a possible title fight this year, the Ukrainian revealed. Klitschko - holder of the IBF and WBO heavyweight belts - said he went for a meal with undisputed cruiserweight champion Haye last night where the conversion turned to a potential bout. Haye, 27, wants to step up to heavyweight after beating Enzo Maccarinelli at the O2 Arena last month, which saw him add the WBO cruiserweight title to his WBC and WBA belts.

Report Offensive CommentHave any of you ever in your life watched David Haye box? He is a strong quick and exciting boxer who is moving up to heavyweight. Any true boxing fan would like to see the heavyweight division get more excitement. I do agree about the belts though. No need for 18 belts for every weight class.

Report Offensive CommentI think that Haye should take on another heavyweight first. There are other heavyweights that should take on Klitschko first. Especially others holding belts.
