    i guess i got my answer :yep :yep :yep

    personally, i feel Rahman is the worst 'ranked' available opponent out there and i wont give Haye much credit...

    i would prefer any of these over Hasbeen Rahman: Thompson, Sultan, Dimitrenko, Arreola, Toney, Golota, Barrett, Ahunanya

    The guy certainly won't be a top 10 boxer as per ratings such as the RING but rather a kind of lower tier # 10 WBO rated kind of fighter...A safety first fight for Haye who's been given too high of a ranking in 2 divisions...

    yeah it would seem they are looking for someone with a soft chin who's best days are well behind him. someone who can absorb punishment and really test haye's hw conditioning and/or chin is not likely
