Haye has stated that he has seen images were Wladimir Klitschko trains in a five-star luxury spa resort in the Austrian Alps and that "there doesn't seem to be much soul there, but the gym I train at in Miami has history and soul to it."

Haye plans to spend six to seven weeks conditioning and training in Miami Beach and then head back to London for the remainder of training and sparring.He feels that the diversity in locations and privacy in Miami helps, he doesn't have the distractions of back home, and can train hard and prepare for his fight against Klitschko.

Haye admits that training in the Miami heat and running on the beach is more motivational then training in the pouring rain while in England.

Haye is no stranger to training in Miami he has been training on and off in Miami since 2006. He has stated that he has "a good history with Miami and has never lost a fight which he prepared for in Miami."

On fight night Haye hopes to give Klitschko "problems, angles, and speed that he has never encountered before."

While in Miami Haye also plans to seek advice from Lennox Lewis which has a home in Miami. Lewis defeated Vitali Klitschko in 2003 and was trained throughout his career by Wladimir Klitschko's trainer Manny Steward.
