    Quite alot of hatred towards Haye in this thread.

    He is back and you all hate it because you know he will rule the world in the not too distant future.

    Haye will be the next undisputed champion of the world.

    Deal with that!

    The Hayemaker is back!

    Povetkin must fight Klitschko by end of August
    If he fights Haye on July 6, how will he fight Wlad in less than 2 months ?:huh

    Just a 'select few' that i've noticed m8. Most seem to be supporting him.

    Let us see what they have to say when he is the main man of the HW division.

    I would be a bit surprised but very delighted if Povetkin is the opponent. It's a very important fight for either boxer's legacy.

    A suggestion that I think is more likely is Sauerland will put Helenius in with Haye. This makes sense on a few levels....

    1) Helenius is young for a heavy so he could take a loss to Haye and still conceivably come back into title contention later.
    2) Sauerland has options on Haye so they'll make money off a WBO mandatory whether it is Helenius or Haye.
    3) Helenius was a sparring partner for Haye prior to the Wlad fight. In other words, fighting Helenius would be ideal preperation for another K2 fight.
    4) Helenius has to fight somebody to be WBO mandatory so why would Sauerland risk the mandatory payday by staging a fight with someone they don't control like Boystov or Fury.
    5) This way Sauerland gets 3 Wlad mandatories in the coming year. Pulev (probably), Povetkin, and Helenius/Haye.

    On the other hand, the Povetkin/Haye fight is also big money for Sauerland and big money for Povetkin and Haye.

    i dont think k2 or povetkin want to fight each other that badly!
    They know it will be a war to get the television rights and who builds the event!

    Povetkin has a chance to decision haye , but he knows he'll get knocked out by Wlad, so if I'm Povetkin I'd rather fight Gaye even if K2 offers more money.

    Certainly good enough, Wlad is the only person who can beat him but i'm sure Haye believes he could win a rematch, especially if he has not mangled toes

    I'm not to sure Wlad would want to risk another fight with Haye

    Very true, that's why i hope it happens, but i doubt it will be Povetkin

    My guess is Haye vs. Luis Ortiz, Ruslan Chagaev, Fres Oquendo, or Tony Thompson.

    Would love for a Haye vs. Povetkin/Pulev showdown.
