Angry Klitschko wants to mow down Haye

WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO has revealed he wants to teach David Haye a lesson in the ring after accusing the Briton of being "aggressive" and "offensive".

Klitschko insists he is entering the prime of his career ahead of his heavyweight bout against Tony Thompson in Hamburg tomorrow.

As the reigning WBO/IBF/IBO champion, he will lay his titles on the line against the mandatory challenger from the United States five months on from wresting the WBO crown from Sultan Ibragimov with an uninspiring win in New York.

Haye will be an interested observer in Hamburg, and has been scathing in his criticism of the heavyweight division in recent weeks, branding it a "total joke" and calling on Klitschko to join him in helping to restore its reputation by meeting in the ring.

His views have not gone down well with Klitschko.

He said: "When I met him (Haye) in London, he was overloaded with his energy and he was very aggressive – he was very offensive also," said Klitschko.

"I didn't even know about David Haye a couple of months ago, but now everybody talks about him."
