    does haye have the ability to relieve either vitali or wladimir of their titles? if not is there any other heavy out there with a reasonable chance of doing so?

    I think Haye's got the speed and power to be a threat to both brothers however both are more technically sound than is Haye and that might be Haye's downfall. I can definitely see Haye beating Wladimir but Vitali is so sound and so strong I don't know if there's anyone out there now that can take him out. That said I'm routing for Haye to beat both guys and look forward to those fights.

    Haye needs to be busier and throw more combinations and establish a good stiff jab if he wants to beat either Kiltschko.

    to be honest haye is the only replacement i can see for oscar if boxing will have a night or two of mainstream once oscar is gone.

    he has the charisma and pulling power to transcend the sport but i dont believe he can beat a fit vitali at least.

    You could debate it all day long, but in reality it's pretty hard to say a whole lot about Haye at HW until he faces somebody in the top ten no?

    I'd say he has a reasonable chance of catching Wlad with a big shot... and we know that's all it takes to get him out of there. LOL (I'd still favor Wlad to win though)

    Can't see him beating Vitali... but it's not totally out of the question. Like I say, it's still a little premature.

    Other guys with a chance vs the Klits...

    Dimmitrenko? J.C. Gomez? Arreola?... Who am I missing?

    I think Haye can, but I also think James Toney can

    i dont think haye can beat the klitschko bros, but im sure he can have a moment or two in those fights.

    the biggest weakness to me that haye has displayed, is workrate. i've come to realise he doesn't throw many punches and when he does it's usually with knockout intentions. that worked in cruiserweight, where he was taller and longer than most of his opponents, but in the heavyweights, especially against the K bros, if he doesn't get ko'ed, i can see him easily losing on points.

    basically he will need to ko either brothers early or else he will definately lose by ko or points.

    and at the top level, relying only on ko's is not a safe bet.

    but exciting is definately what haye is, and i will enjoy watching his fights win lose or draw! :good
