    if the British Boxing Board say no to Chagaev what's next for Haye who can he fight?

    Wlad'll be signed with Adamek for September so the only option left is perhaps a fight with Big V in October 7 months later providing he beats Solis.

    Haye being Haye though may not take that fight so who else?

    Maybe Hopkins since Pascal may be forced to fight Dawson. This would give Hopkins his chance for HW greatness before coming down and (maybe) beating Dawson or Pascal before retiring as HW champion and then LHW ring champion. That'd make for a good legacy and I'm certain Hopkins would let Dawson / Pascal fight n step aside so he can get the HW title too.

    Rematch Valuev or Harrison or Tyson Fury is a good matchup as well.

    think it will be meehan,who lost to chageav in the title eliminator for the title shot at haye.

    but i dont think a loser should have a title shot just cuz the winner and mandatory isnt well enough to fight out of germany.

    maybe chageav v haye happens in vegas if haye has to fight him some way or another.

    ide prefer povetkin to be haye's mandatory,sure povetkin is ranked as no 3 for wba rankings.

    fight in england,but get himself on hbo.

    I'd say Holyfield, but I don't think Haye is confident he can beat him. And Haye isn't going to fight anyone unless he's confident he can beat him.

    Chagev is a mandatory, so I assume they just go down the rankings to the next available challenger.

    Sept. is a long way off...Adamek should show interest in fighting haye in the spring sometime. Adamek wants to fight in Poland in April? with an opponent to be named. Why not Haye? Would he ever in a million yrs take a fight in Poland against a highly skilled warrior with heart & CHEEN?

    I guess that fight isn't even worth discussing...:tired

    Big events? This isn't westling. These guys are "Champions" & should be fighting the most worthy opponents!

    Probably true.
    :deal

    They have Denis Boytsov ranked next in line according to fightnews.......and then Povetkin. Wouldn't that be a decent fight? I'd think Haye vs. Povetkin might be interesting, I don't think Boytsov is ready yet.

    Is Ruslan hurt or sick?

    Cause Wlad was willing to take him to a place that would commission the fight why doesnt Haye leave the saftey of Britain and fight Chag?

    Id like to see haye in with tony thompson. Thompson has only ever been really beaten by wlad. he is coming off 4 consecutive wins. He is pretty much the best available fighter from the usa.

    Make the fight,.
