If somehow those three fights happened, it would be a great year. Maybe Wlad can fight one or two of those. Povetkin has already avoided him twice (2008 and 2010). And I'm not sure if Pulev's managers want to throw him at Wlad at this stage.

I heard about Wlad-Boytsov, which is also interesting.

Wlad fighitng for the WBC belt would also be good.

I think those are 3 very legitimate opponents, all pose some kind of threat to Wlad(though Wlad is the huge favorite). All 3 are undefeated, ring magazine ranked contenders.

That would be nice but all are Sauerland fighters!!!!!

Sauerland will not alow these fights. He will play his games.

Pulev should wait a year.

agreed about Povetkin and Pulev

Helenius looked awful against Williams, he should take at least 2-3 more fights before going into the ring to collect his K2 paycheck, I'd take Price or Fury instead of the Nordic Nightmare
