It seems like it would be Johnny "Roy" Ruiz. HEAVYWEIGHT (Over 200 Lbs / 90.71 Kgs) World Champion: NICOLAY VALUEV RUS Won Title: 08-30-08 Last Mandatory: Last Defense: 12-20-08 WBC:VITALY KLITSCHKO- IBF:WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO WBO: WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO 1.

It will be Ruiz, Meehan, Holyfield and Valuev matches and rematches until he retires. Unless he can find an easier fight.
Lets hope for the sake of the fans he doesnt **** everyone over again by staying out of the ring for another year.
Well Ruiz is his manditory. But this guy marchs to his own beat so I wouldn't be suprised to see him go right back after one of the Klitchkos. It think Haye believes that there are plenty of smaller skilled heavyweigths that can take advantages of his own weaknesses but that he has a very good style for beating the klit bros so its almost a matter of getting to them before they retire or someone else beats them. Plus he probably he wants to get his money and get out before he has the deal with Oliander Solis again.
I actually think he'll want to go after Wlad. i mean the only he was so stupidly eager to fight him a year ago that he signed one of the worst contracts I have ever heard of. I mean the only really thing he was going to make anything off of was the Setanta part of the deal. and that was penuts. But he realized just how **** the contract was and bailed. If they gave him a fair shack I imagine he'd sign the deal pretty quickly.
I see little chance of this honestly. I imagine he will have to face ruiz and I think ruiz gives him everything he wants and possible takes him on points. Ruiz is an experienced veteran who uses everything to his advantage.
Avatar bet if it happens? Honestly Ruiz has no chance. Not that fast, hugs a lot, comes forward, has non-threatening power, is only getting older. Haye has it.
Haye getting the WBA strap means he will enter the "WBA Ring Of Death" where he will have a trilogy with Valuev fight john Ruiz with a rematch clause then fight Holyfield then start again with Valuev rinse and repeat........
You are too new to the forum for me to place an avatar bet sorry. I think ruiz's style would definitely discourage haye and contrary to popular opinion Ruiz can punch a little and negate others offense pretty effectively.
