I would love to watch him go against 1 of these guys before fighting any of the K bros. Arreola Adamek Tua
i'd choose the following personally. ruiz, holyfield, vitali. if he beats ruiz and holyfield he'll have a solid heavyweight resume plus he'll have beaten his legend and made enough defences to be a bonafide champ. if he fights like he did against valuev, he'll beat vitali all night long. this would set him up for a mega fight with wladimir, but i'd love to see him face off against chagaev prior to wlad.
Ruiz - Get the mandatory out of the way Chagaev - As he was the former holder and never lost the WBA belt Vit then Wlad
i'd love to see him vs chagaev but i think chagaev is badly damaged goods. people saying he should fight wlad are crazy. if both guys win over the next 2 years there will be a super fight up there with the like of holyfield tyson!!!
Don't really want to see him fight Ruiz but I realise its mandatory. Other than Ruiz: 1-Wlad 2-Vitali 3-Vitali rematch after a complete bloodbath!
I'll tell you who it is going be, not who I would pick, but King has them lined up. Ruiz, Lyakhovich and Valuev.
Its mandatory. The only way Haye fought valuev was because Ruiz was payed to step aside for that fight in the knowledge he'd be fighting the winner.
knock out audley harrison for a tune up then decision lennox lewis then finally a mega fight with calzaghe which he wins in a close split decision after a hard fight
ruiz (tua stlye), wlad, and then vitali (if he loses to vitali then i won't mind as much as if he lost to wlad, also vitali should have unified at least 2 belts on his time if it weren't for his injuries. and if he fought wlad first then vitali would be slightly more shop-worn).
Screw Ruiz. I want to see him fight Chagaev, IBragimov ih he returns, and Adamek, two great cruisers battling at HW
