Haye Drops WBC Cruiserweight Belt

To further his effort to get in with the big boys at heavyweight, David Haye has recently relinquished his WBC cruiserweight belt, and has requested to the WBC to be ranked at heavyweight division. The WBC vacant cruiserweight title will be contested between Rudolf Kraj and Giacobbe Fragomeni.

One might wonder why he didn't petition or drop his other belts he holds at cruiseweight 1st considering he has called out Wladimir Klitscho the IBF/WBO/IBO heavyweight champion several times in the last few months. That move might have made it easier for him to score a chance at Wladimir as opposed to petitioning the WBC. Maybe he has come to his senses and realized fighting Wladimir as a 1st fight wouldn't be such a sane move. But, can't say for sure what his intentions are....
