David Haye has been forced to pull out of his proposed heavyweight title clash with Wladimir Klitschko through injury.

The British hope suffered the problem in training ahead of the eagerly-anticipated bout, which is to be screened live on Setanta.

It will be a heartbreaking blow for Haye, who championed long and hard for the opportunity to shake up the division by taking on the best in the business.

His controversial tactics in goading the Klitschko brothers into action caused a stir but, ultimately, it secured him his crack at Wladimir on June 20.

An independent verification of the injury is required before a decision on the future of the fight can be confirmed and a new date fixed for the Schalke showdown.

The event was a sell-out in Gelsenkirchen and more details will follow on the breaking news when available.
Aww damn, and only a few weeks away.

David Haye will be ready to fight Wladimir Klitschko on July 11, though Ruslan Chagaev could meet the Ukrainian instead on June 20.

Both Haye's manager Adam Booth and Klitschko's equivalent Bernd Bonte spoke to Steve Bunce's Boxing Hour about Haye's pull-out from their scheduled bout due to a back injury.

Booth insisted Haye will be ready to take the ring three weeks later than the scheduled date, but Bonte says Klitschko, at present, would rather meet Chagaev - though the terms of this fight still need to be negotiated.

"It is still a possibility but our first priority is Chagaev, but that fight is not a done deal," Bonte told Setanta Sports News.

"The important question is are RTL happy to go on July 11? Are HBO ready to go three weeks later?

"The stadium will be okay for July 11. Chagaev would be a big fight. It would be for The Ring belt. I have got confirmation from The Ring [magazine]."

Bonte says K2 Promotions have been inundated with offers from fighters to fulfill the June 20 date, but said they are only interested in meeting Chagaev or Haye.

"We have 10 different fighters looking to fight," Bonte added. "Kevin Johnson, Brian Minto, Michael Grant. But at the moment we are only interested in Chagaev or Haye on June 20 or three weeks later.

"I hope we will know what we are doing in the next three days."
I honestly cannot respect him not being able to wait another month if he chooses Chagaev...

Re: Haye pulls out of Klitschko fight

I was hearing that Chagaev's and Klitschko's promotion companies are arch enemies in Germany so it may be hard to strike a deal so soon. I cant see Chagaev turning down anything though, he wont get many chances to fight in front of 60,000 people.
