    Would Haye take him?

    I have never seen him fight, but heard a lot of hype.

    From looking at his record my first impression is he's untested, and wouldnt be ready

    he will never fight haye next. no chance. hes just coming back after a serious hand injury i think and probably needs a couple of tune ups and to quote someone from the general "hes in the universum witness protection program"

    Hes very talented and I think he'll win a belt at some stage. But he's been plagued by hand injurees that have messed up his last year and a half or so. He still needs to recover fully and needs to get active again before challenging Haye, so I doubt he would take this fight soon.

    Lucky for Haye he has an injury as this guy would unseat on him.

    The way things are going I reckon I might win a belt at some stage soon..

    Boytsov does have talent though and he keeps himself in decent shape. I can't see him beating either Klitschko though. Whether he's got injuries or not he needs to start stepping up his opposition though otherwise he won't progress.

    Well, he has a good win against Taras Bidenko, but then the injuries started. He's a real puncher, so having a hand injury may really damage his career. I think he realises that he needs to rest it out and get a bit of ring time and then start stepping up. He's only 24 or so, still plenty of time for a heavyweight, so no need to screw up a good career by messing his hands up permanently. He should get a few warmups in my opinion, and then take on someone like Dimitrenko.
