Ex-champion will retire if attempts to lure Ukrainian fail
David Haye will not be drawn into a slanging match with
domestic rival Tyson Fury and intends to hang up his gloves if unsuccessful in
his attempts to land one final world title shot against WBC champion Vitali
Klitschko.
The 31 year-old made the admission in the wake of several
public outbursts from former British title holder Fury, who is eager to
face Haye as he himself, leads up to a possible fight against one of the
Ukrainian brothers next year.
“Just for the record fight fans, I will never fight any
other boxer whose name isn't Klitschko from this point on,” stated Haye over
the weekend, leaving Fury to contemplate an alternative opponent for his Belfast return
on December 1.
The ‘Hayemaker’ came out of his first retirement last
October to brutally halt Dereck Chisora in five rounds at Upton Park in London
and is hopeful that the victory will be enough to earn him another shot at a
world title before he hangs up his gloves once more.
The Londoner’s first attempt at overthrowing a Klitschko ended in misery at the Imtech
Arena in July 2011 as his challenge against Wladimir ended with a whimper by a wide points margin and Haye wants the chance to rectify the loss against the elder sibling.
