    A good time for HW would be, if these 4 fights occured:

    VK v Valuev
    WK v Povetkin
    Chambers v Dimitrenko
    Haye v Arreola

    These four fights would all be very interesting to watch, including Valuev/Vitali fight because 1. Valuev might be KOed, and 2. Klitschkos might finally hold all 4 belts. The first three are most likely to happen, and the last one would be a gift to the boxing fans (at least me...to some this division seems as dead as a funeral no matter what happens)

    Then, VK v Haye/Arreola
    And, WK v Dimitrenko/Chambers
    Or, the other way around.

    These 6 fights would definitely be a paramount of the HW division in the last few years.

    Theoretically, that is how the rest of the year could play out

    This fight would be awesome and would give Haye a legit HW name if he were to beat Arreola and vice versa, both are entertaining to watch but I'd pick Haye based on physique...same type of fighter with better fitness/speed and I would think power as well but thats obviously debateable.

    I think Haye and Arreola have given the HW scene a bit of extra padding and it is slowly building to have a few good fighters in there. Now I know Haye has a lot of detractors but anyone who doesn't seem him as a good thing for the HW scene is crazy, he is bringing some spot light and attention to the division where it had previously only been really enjoyed by K2 fans (not that I have a problem with that, they've just not had opposition for people to get behind before).

    who knows 3 of the 4 are playing out as such, and now both Haye and Arreola are open. I'm guessing Arreola will be pushing for Haye, although Haye might not want to risk it
