As an ex amateur boxer I found it terribly insulting of David Haye to refuse to shake hands with Klitschko. Haye has dodged the fight, manipulated things to his favour when he isn;t the true champion. The Champion is the man who beat the man. Sadly boxing politics have seen the title split in to 4 or more though any true fight fan knows the route from Ali in to a mess that Tyson unified,Holyfield took the line, again the line split though Lennox Lewis rose to be the heavyweight no one could beat. Since then the Klitschko brothers have dominated. Haye should go to them. Haye has never been truly tested. He needs to beat at least one Klitshko to even claim to be true heavyweight champion. He needs to then defend the title for a while to be remembered.
Joe Chalzaghe beat Chris Eubank and spent a decade undefeated, fought all comers, thats a champion. Khan may yet grow to be a legend like Manny Pacquiao is now, the worlds best pound for pound boxer.
