    What happened to Haye having to 'prove himself' first. Arreola is no more proven than Haye at HW, infact less so.

    Vitali has to fight Gomez. It's his mandatory. That is understandable. But, Wlad could still fight Haye. That is a better fight and a fight the people want to see. Right?:huh Oh, this is so f#$ked up.

    Wasn't he given permission for the Rahman fight to be his mandatory aswell? Which means this must be voluntary, so why not fight Haye?

    He's a more established name, more money, more recognition, and it's the fight people want to see.


    He knows, he absolutely knows that Haye would shatter his jaw into a million pieces.

    Once he beats Arreola, he will hide behind Povetkin when he comes back and gets a shot again, then Dimitrenko if he gets a couple of more decent wins.

    Right, I guess. But, Gomez can still win. U never know in this game. I like Vitali still, though.

    So the Gomez fight is in March, he last fought in October against Peter, so that's a 5 month gap. Now Gomez is lazy but far more skilled than Peter, and will give Klitschko a tougher fight, so it's more than possible that he takes another 5/6 month break. That means he won't fight Haye until around September, which means Haye will of gone almost a year without fighting.

    It's more than possible that he could be back in the ring by March/April to take on Wlad. Which is what should happen. If he wins, he takes the IBF and WBO belts, and goes on to fight Vitali. The winner of that can then take the WBA belt off Valuev and retire undisputed.

    I think it has te potential to be an exciting fight if Arreola comes into the fight in shape. He is the best American Heavyweight right now.

    Vitali could fight in March and early July. I dont see any big problem in a 3 month gap, if its a huge payday and negotiations are easy. Wlad seems to fight Arreola in the US in May. I am quite sure the brothers have an agreement, that Vitali should get one huge payday in his career with the Haye fight, because his biological clock is ticking and he couldnt earn money within his 4 year lay off. If Haye doesnt lose badly he can take on Wlad and lose another time.
    BTW does it matter if its in June July or September? Its for sure that there will be a Klitschko-Haye fight soon and it would be good for Haye to take on another tuneup. Barrett is **** as preparation for either Klit.
