An in shape Peter knocked Wlad down 3 times and still lost on the scorecards 114-111. Peter is tailor made for both Klitschko's he is a slow flat footed stationary target for them to tee off on all day long. Peter was a hype job. Period.
Haye has a chance against the Tin-Man currently impersonating Vitali (and I say this in the nicest way). Other then that - nobody that's coming up in the next 3-4 years.
Arreola is limited mostly by his 'shape'. He does himself and the division a disservice by impersonating a blimp.
Was he stopped yes, By your definition how many ko's does haye have at heavy... Zero since you know they were all stoppages by the ref too:rofl...
You must think Adamek is on the same level as Ruiz. Sure, Haye would be a favourite, but demolish? A huge exaggeration. I perceive that Adamek is way too underrated since almost nobody mentions him to be any threat for Klits.
I hate Haye but if he fought an aging Vitali with knee problems like he did vs Valuev he may win a boring 12 rounder but thats iff Vitali cant corner him or catch him which i doubt cause vitali is not as slow and inept as valuev
After going through the top 50, I can only imagine three fighters could do it. All three would be underdogs. Haye, Tua, and Peter. All three would be underdogs - but Haye least so. Tua could be a real serious threat if he was fully motivated and trained, and so could Peter. However, Wlad would beat Peter 9 out of 10 times and Vitaly would beat him 10 out of 10. But anyone else they would both beat 10 out of 10 times.
