Booth denies Haye, Klitschko fight

David Haye's manager Adam Booth has refuted rumours that the former WBA heavyweight champion is eyeing up a battle with Ukrainian boxer Vitali Klitschko.

Reports have suggested that the 31-year-old, who announced his retirement last month, has been considering taking on Wladimir Klitschko's brother Vitali.

"Yes I've had phone calls and communication with [the Klitschkos] but at the moment as far as I'm concerned, the fight isn't happening," Booth told Sky Sports News.

"David is retired, and that's all I can say at the moment."

The British boxer hinted that he could make a return to the ring last month.
