    Not a big fan of the HW division today, and I know many share those sentiments, but we're stuck with it for now so let's try to look on the bright side. What fights at heavyweight would you most like to see or do you think would make the best, most entertaining fights? For me any combination of Chagaev/Ibragimov/Povetkin could possibly come out as an excellent match.

    I'd like to see some of the older guys fight each other like James Slater said on the front page. He suggested a Old Timer HW tournament to weed out the contenders from the pretenders. It'll never happen though & that's why I don't really take any of them seriously.

    Brewster vs Povetkin (If he can't get past Brewster then he definitely has no business with Wlad)

    Ibragimov vs Chagaev (Both southpaw, both same height, both undefeated would be a very even looking match up)

    Wladimir vs Sam Peter 2 (Wlad resumes from round 13 of their last fight)

    Vitali Klitschko tune up vs Valuev (assuming Klitschko is fighting fit)

    David Haye vs Corrie Sanders (Good test for Haye, both very dangerous in the early goings)

    You may want to add their amatuer rivalry as well.
