    Haye should be made to fight through the HW rankings. Theres no way he should be allowed to fight straight for another title.
    I sure chisora takes haye out. Hayes work rate is abysmal.

    I'd like to see Haye return. I think we've only touched on seeing his potential. IMO, he could become a legitimate HW weighing 230-240 and fighting on the inside and out while maintaining his upperbody movement and defense.

    Problem is that what other people mention, he seems to only be in it for the money. If not, we'd already see him making fights last Decemeber and for this March. He'd have fought a comeback fight and then an eliminator or possibly filled in for Chambers this Saturday.

    BUT.......he won't even take an immediate crack at the title for less than 40%, and that clearly shows where his ambition lies. When he took the Wlad fight I was impressed when they announced his name. When he began talks with Vitali, I was impressed that he hadn't retired. When Vitali announced Chisora as his opponent.....the blame IS all on Haye's shoulders. Same goes for the Huck fight. Haye was the last paper champ @ WBA, and he should be fighting for his paper title instead of Boz and Huck. It's his paper, he should go into the ring and take it back.

    Why should Haye fight Povetkin? There's nothing for him to gain (and dpn't mention his mickey mouse title) from winning this fight. We already know he would beat Povetkin, Haye knows it. If he takes the fight and struggles, and looks poor he will blow a shot at a Klitschko.

    Haye is the third best in the division behind the brothers, and I believe in rematch Haye would do much better with Wlad, make it a closer fight. I ask, if Wlad was 6'3 inches and 220 pounds, would he beat Haye? I don't think so.

    Yes you are right...in the ring not in the media.

    Haye is all bark no bite.

    Say what you will, he did bring excitement, and whilst the fight was boring, it was no different to any other Klitschko fight. At least we got some excitement in the build up. Better than the usual sterile Klitschko pre fight press conferences, and snoozefests in the ring against undersized and overmatched opponents. At least there was the feeling in early rounds of the fight that Haye could make it interesting.

    His press conferences and interviews leading up to the fight were entertaining! The fight was a classic Klitschko fight, nullify the opponent, and jab,jab and grab your way to a UD using your reach and height advantage, avoiding anything remotely resembling an exchange.

    What has Haye done to be the 3rd best HW in today's division ? Seriously I cant think of anything.
    If he had come to fight with Wlad he was a certain KO waiting to happen.

    This guy punches like 4 times in a round.

    would also be great if he took a tune up before then. Don't care who it is. Just want to see that Slick black Britishness again. Late 2012 is too long to wait.:bbb

    Did you mistype? Surely you meant to type "excrement" instead of excitement.

    Come back and save the heavyweight division David! Do it for Dempsey, Louis, Ali, Holmes, Tyson . . . Do it for the fans!!!!

    Seriously though, aside from Wlad vs Vitali, name another heavyweight fight That generates half as much hype, media coverage and money as Haye vs Vitali. It's the biggest heavyweight fight out there, and a much better clash of styles than Haye vs Wlad.

    Make the fight, hail the saviour, eat the crow.

    Who the **** cares? The guy is like most British fighters, a talentless, unskilled, no Heart having, Chinless joke and if he returns and fights anyone with a pulse he'll either stink up the joint with another cowardly display of marathon running or he will be KOed brutally and embarrassingly. I have no desire to see this China Chinned British Hype Job ever fight again.:patsch
