VITALI Klitschko has warned David Haye that either he or his younger brother Wladimir will end the WBA champion’s career.
Haye angered the siblings last year when he appeared at a press conference in Germany wearing a tee-shirt depicting him holding their severed heads.
The Klitschkos are eager to exact revenge in the ring on the outspoken Briton and 34-year-old Wladimir has already appeared in a video on YouTube in which he said their rival had “bitched out” of fighting him and his brother.
He went on to demand a meeting “on behalf of boxing fans around the world”, urging Haye to follow through with a fight to “gain respect”.
And now Vitali, 38, has stepped up the campaign to secure a showdown with their arch enemy.
Vitali makes the fourth defence of his WBC heavyweight crown against Albert Sosnowski in Germany on Saturday but he still could not resist taking a swipe at Haye at the pre-fight press conference.
“I want to fight David Haye very much,” he said. “Wladimir wants to fight against him also.
“Wladimir wants to fight him because it’s personal. Wladimir says he’s not interested in his title. David Haye touched him so deeply that Wladimir wants to shut his mouth in the ring.
“David Haye understands the fact that the Klitschko brothers will be the end of his career.
“The fight against me will be much shorter than against Wladimir because Wladimir will beat him badly over 12 rounds and knock him out.”
He added: “I will give a proposal to David Haye. A much easier proposal. I will knock him out in two, three, maximum four rounds.” (Eurosport)
