    Then who necks for Wlad? (Hint: The clue is in question)

    But if not Peter, who may not want to rematch Wlad, then who else is out their? Arreola? Solis? Neither are deserving of a title shot. Briggs would probably be up for it, but Wlad would most likely kill him

    Adamek could be in with a shot, but he should get some more fights in first. The list isn't all that big for Wlad.

    Briggs would be great, but he's high(ish) risk and not much reward.

    Here's video of Peter's last fight (where he was almost 30lbs lighter than he was against Eddie Chambers).

    Is it me or Peter has slowed down a bit, despite him being in MUCH better shape?

    I meant the 2005 fight with Wlad, I did not rewatch it in a while but I think in that fight Peter was a bit quicker and more aggressive.

    To do that he would need to work on his footwork - it would need to be much quicker to chase down running Haye. As I think Haye in that fight (not that he would take it) would use similar approach as in Valuev fight.

    yeah but peter is way faster then valuev, come on guys valuev is slow as a slug. haye would counter a lot of times, but i don't think he has enough power to ko peter. but peter will get his punches of. so i would bet money on peter by ko
