    Simple question, out of everyone named below (some not so realistic) which fighter do you think would be best for the heavyweight division as undisputed champion. Criteria being i.e. level of fighting, personality, possible star power, and curent and possible fan base.

    I vote for Haye as much as I hate him for being a *****. The others are colorless robots with no personality and limited fighters to boot. Hypothetically I think Adamek would be a great fit if he is able to fight competatively with that much extra weight. Adamek is good for any division.

    Haye, for various reasons. His fighting style is exciting, he is enertaining behind the mic, not afraid to take on the best fighters out there, and also has the right look to attract the females, something DLH has been doing for years and he's the number 1 most grossing PPV fighter of all-time, ahead of both Holyfield and Tyson.

    Povetkin.

    The Klits are great guys and great fighters, but no one likes this "two-headed monster" as champion thing. One has got to go- or both.

    Povetkin has agreat amatuer background, some good pro wins, a fast paced, excitiing style with lots of punches thrown.

    Vitali Klitschko. He's the best guy out there right now.

    Haye obviously. He's exciting to watch, he hits hard but he can be hurt and that's why he's so exciting, you know the fight isn't going the distance it's KO or be KO'd stuff.

    He also has a big personality and charisma, he's a promotor aswell so it's his good to talk **** and promote fights, he would get some big cards on as he's been doing domestically recently.

    And he's never ducked anybody, he's fought a high level of competition for the stage he's at in his career, I mean he took on guys like Thompson and Arthur Williams, former world champions very early in his career, took on Mormeck in his own back yard, Maccarinelli when he didn't have to etc.

    It's clearly Haye. I think he has that "it" that could make him a popular celebrity. Plus his reckelss style is in the ring is crowd pleasing. He's articulate and a good looking guy.
    Vitali and Wlad Klitschko had their chance and proved not to have the charisma or crowd pleasing style.
    The rest from that list are completely void of either skill or bankable personality.
